1 | response to: There is no such scripture | Rom 10:9 | cleo | 37558 | ||
So are you saying that I can receive Christ and then live however I want to live....I can still live the life of sin but yet go to Heaven? That is unbelievable but would explain why so many people fornicate, commit adultry, beat their kids, and wives and further more, are just simply not submitted to Christ but believe that since that have once received Christ, they have assurance of Eternal Life. I am really confused now. |

Actually one can live however one wants after comming to Christ for salvation. You must remember however, that the true believers will give up the "driver seat" of their lives to Jesus and, accordingly, their lives will be a reflection of The Lord himself. They will not be perfect, but they are on a life long journey and their steps are ordered by God. As Paul said, "Finish the race." The life of a Christian is an on-going, daily, hourly relationship with God Himself. All relationships require work and input by both parties. God knows your heart. | ||||||

Hi jeffy, Welcome to the Forum! You write, "Actually one can live however one wants after comming to Christ for salvation." How does this notion square with what Paul teaches? Rom 6:15 What then? Shall we sin [tranlate: shall we live any way we want] because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be! Rom 6:16 Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness? Rom 6:17 But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed, Rom 6:18 and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. Rom 6:19 I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification. Rom 6:20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. Rom 6:21 Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is death. Rom 6:22 But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life. Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Peace, Lionstrong |
