Bible Note: Dear Got it While it's true, that Jesus paid the penalty for sin. The fact still remains that those who know God do at times fall into a laspe of sin. And in these instances we are told that "if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness 1 John 1:9 In case you say we are without sin then consider 1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us John also is telling believers 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 The perfect model is that "we sin not" However the fact remains that believers do sin. And when we sin it needs to be confessed to God, and then we should pray that we will receive His power and strength to turn from it. Grace be unto you New Creature |
