1 | Psalm 37:24 | Rom 8:1 | Ngop | 77625 | ||
Jlpangilinan, "this verse is a very big reason that a truly saved person cannot go back to his old sins, because it is Christ live in him. If Christ truly lives in us I dont we are still capable of killing stealing or raping so on and so fort." How do you connect the verse below on your conclusion? Psalm 37:24 though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand This verse says, even though we are saved, being in this sinful flesh, we will still sin ( stumble ) but God will not let us lose our salvation ( fall ) as He will hold our hands like the way He held Peter, as long as we do what Peter did "Lord, save me" ( Matt 14.30 ) NGOP |

2 | Psalm 37:24 | Rom 8:1 | jlpangilinan | 77777 | ||
NGOP I think you did not understand what I mean here. Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. "this verse is a very big reason that a truly saved person cannot go back to his old sins, because it is Christ live in him. If Christ truly lives in us I dont we are still capable of killing stealing or raping so on and so fort." Quote" How do you connect the verse below on your conclusion? Psalm 37:24 though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand This verse says, even though we are saved, being in this sinful flesh, we will still sin ( stumble ) but God will not let us lose our salvation ( fall ) as He will hold our hands like the way He held Peter, as long as we do what Peter did "Lord, save me" ( Matt 14.30 )and end of quote. Answer. I carefully read my posts and I dont see that I said we cannot sin, but I wrote we cannot go back to our "old sin" For example I am a rapist and a killer murderer then received the truth of Christ and Christ live in me, do you think I am capable of raping again, murdering again, while Christ lives in me? What kind of christ is that lives in me if He still allow me to kill murder and raping again and again. Paul consider a murderer when he prosecuted the believer of Christ, but he received Christ, and Christ lives in Him did he prosecuted again the Christian? God bless, |

3 | Psalm 37:24 | Rom 8:1 | Ngop | 77902 | ||
Jlpangilinan, Logically, yes, brother/sister, I agree with you. But please bear with me. Peter was with Christ throughout the 3.5 years of Christ's ministry and yet he denied Him three times. Even worse was Judas. The point I was driving at is as long as we are in this sinful flesh, we can not say that there is no chance of sinning or going back to our old sins as you said. In my opinion, the beauty of our salvation lies on the GRACE God gave and not on our capability to avoid sin, old or new. We should always separate the concept of Salvation from the concept of sinning. We try not to commit sin not because we are afraid of losing salvation. We avoid sin because we want to please God for giving us salvation. God bless, NGOP Salamat po. |

Greetings, You wrote the following and I would like to comment: __________ Jlpangilinan, Logically, yes, brother/sister, I agree with you. But please bear with me. Peter was with Christ throughout the 3.5 years of Christ's ministry and yet he denied Him three times. Even worse was Judas. The point I was driving at is as long as we are in this sinful flesh, we can not say that there is no chance of sinning or going back to our old sins as you said.

We avoid sin because we want to please God for giving us salvation. God bless, NGOP Salamat po. _______________ My comments is that I agree with the way you put this. Salvation does not require man's perfection. If it did, no one could be saved. But salvation is based on Faith plus Practicing Righteousness: that brings salvation. Do you agree? If I disobey God then I fear; but when my mind is on the things of the Spirit and I walk in the light, then my mind dwells on and trust in the grace of God. I do not fear death because I know God keeps his promise. God bless, Disciplerami |
