Subject: Heb 6:4-6 |
Bible Note: Only the Holy Spirit can draw them back. You still have to make the choice to repent or not. If the Holy Spirit speaks to your heart and you are convicted of that sin and are sorry and don't want to do it again then you ask for forgivness,then for strenght to forsake that sin. WE are all sinners. The difference between the forgiven and the unforgiven is the forgiven sinner asked to be forgiven.There is an action going on here. ASKED TO BE FORGIVEN. the action asked is on the part of the sinner. Drawing by the Holy Ghost, forgivness by God. We still have to ask.Otherwise what seperates us from the wicked? They chose to Tread under foot the Son of God.They choose the god of this world/worldliness. God would have all men saved 1st Tim 2:4 WE know that all will not be saved. Because the wicked will have their part in the lake of fire that is prepared for satan and his angels. The road is narrow... Who made Adam sin? Who made Moses strike the rock when God said speak to it? I thank God Daily and ask for forgivness daily. Why? Because I am a Sinner.Praise be to God for his love towards us all,who HATES SIN but LOVES THE SINNER, even a sinner like me. God gives eternal life. Man is mortal and subject to death. Eternal like is promised only to the rightous. So those who believe that God punishes the wicked in hell forever then also believe that the wicked will have eternal life,for how can a person be tortured unless he has life? A backslider can ask for forgivness. This is what I was saying. And God is faithfull to forgive us our sins. Only when you refuse to listen to the calling of the Holy Spirit to the point that you have heardened yourself to the plee to come to Christ are you in danger. |
