1 | How do I forgive adultry if it continues | Bible general Archive 4 | TJS | 202151 | ||
Val, You ask "At what point did the Lord take away the sin?" It was when the sin was known and stopped. Similarly CDBJ replied concerning "coming into the light". Becoming knowledgeable of a wrong (sin)is also coming into the light. "Enlightened" one might say. If one clings to the sin, after having received the light, they are embracing the evil. Have we went so far in embracing forgiveness that we don't recognise evil? Have many churchs turned a blind eye to evil for political reasons or because of ones wealth? Here are my thoughts that many will disagree. Our churches put too little effort into recognition of sin that it is now commonplace amongst us. One friend says "evil hides in the church". How many persons sin during the week and then go to church on sunday, only to return to their evil ways? Are we so hung up on filling the church coffers that sin and evil are not rooted out? That's not following Jesus. Regards, TJS |

Again I will again refer you to the scriptures. Notice 2 Sam 12:13 Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." And Nathan said to David, "The LORD also has taken away your sin; you shall not die." No matter how much we reason to justify our own mindset we must let scripture speak for itself. The Lord took away David's sin. David continued to live with Bathesheba as his wife. The Lord did not ask David to put away his wife. What you are asking people to do is "put away/divorce" again is a sin. Sin in the church is a different topic. I will let you have the last word. Let us agree to disagree on this specific point. |
