Subject: Sin in the life of a believer? |
Bible Note: Cited for reference 1 Jn 1:5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 6If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. I understand the Greek word for "clense" above is the active progressive tense, that is in order for us to enjoy this constant clensing action of Jesus blood, we have to remain faithful and in fellowship with God and our fellow christians. Also see Rev 2:10. So it's just a constant state of humility and submission to God's sovreignty and Grace. Nothing we can do can take the place of our daily sacrifice of our will to His every morning and to go to bed at night after repenting of whatever we done not in accordance with God's Will and to repent of whatever we've left undone. God bless. --Rowdy |
