Subject: Can we live life without sinning? |
Bible Note: ah.... NO! :-( 1 John 3:2 " Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as [YET] what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is." [CAPS and brackets for emphases] You see we are NOT perfect YET, though we no longer live in and for sin, and the Spirit of God that lives and dwells in us strives not to sin, and the difference between the two conditions is indeed light and dark, and this is the "new creation". We are nonetheless NOT perfect YET and we do fail! "But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit." 2 Cor 3:18 From day to day we strive to and come closer to perfection and Christ-likeness, but we are NOT there YET! God bless John |
