Bible Note: brother Steve; We all are tempted to sin. Even Jesus was tempted to sin. (Matt. 4) Being tempted is not sin. Giving into temptation however is sin. When a believer sins that does not make us hell-bound. Sin in the life of a believer grieves the Holy Spirit, (Eph 4:30) and breaks fellowship with the Father and the Son 1 John 1:6-9. The conditional clause "If" in 1 John 1:9 is intended for believers who sin. We need to have no unconfessed sin in our lives. When we confess and turn from sin, fellowship is restored. 1 John 2:1 ¶ My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: Ro 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. (all the pronouns in the above verses are addressed to believers in Christ Jesus) A continued life of unconfessed sin, in the believer, not only grieves the Holy Spirit, but over time hardens the heart of the individual, and if continued in will eventually lead to "Quenching the Holy Spirit. (1 Thess. 5:19). Grace and peace zach† |
