Bible Note: Shalom and greetings Tim, I have thoroughly enjoyed your posts. In a way, I agree with both you and is it Steve mostly responding to you. I look at "sin" as the disease we inherited from Adam and "sins" its symptoms. Like you can be over the flu but for weeks have some flu-like symtoms hanging on. You're no longer sick but the coughing and weakness is still there reminding you of a few weeks ago when flu ruled. Sins are the tell-tale signs of once being sold under sin. We are now new creations, but once in awhile sins (not "sin") pop its ugly head up and we can CHOOSE to do or not to do the thing. Sadly, the tell-tale symptoms of sin lasts far longer than flu hangers-on!! :-( Anyway, just my opinion :-) Cheri |
