Bible Question: I'm puzzled by Galations 5:19-24. I want to know if you have committed any of these and repented are you safe from being kept from receiving the kingdom of God. I have been saved a long time and committed one of these fleshly sin's but have repented, has God rejected my prayer like he did with Saul over the Amelikites? help! |
Bible Answer: John Wesley taught that a person could drift into sin and be restored to grace by repentance, most often accompanied by faithful reading of God's word and obedience to it. I heard of a prominent Christian known for his high profile who was enslaved to a sin of the flesh. He began a discipline of Bible study, prayer and fasting to conquer his habitual sin. After a period of 8 or 9 months he no longer had the bent to sin which he was working to overcome. God gave him deliverance. |
