BradK, Your last thought must be addressed first; We are not perfect in our actions thus the need for Christ's blood shed...for forgiveness. G-d knows what is in lour heart. When we sin...if we are sincerly in Christ..we will feel terrible...thus the heart is troubled. Christ provides forgiveness. ..thru grace. Performing the three things prepares us for advancing our state of rightousness. Unless they are first in place...all other actions are for nye. |

Hello G. Preston, I'm not quite following you:-) My last thought...? We are forgiven according to Eph. 1:7, "In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace". This is accessed by faith. Your emphasis appears to be upon our performance... what WE do not, what He has already accomplished for us! Our only righteousness comes from being, "in Him" (1 Cor. 1:30) we have no righteousness apart from Christ! Can you summarize your thoughts by or from scripture, so I can better follow? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
