Bible Question:
Yesterday, one of my Sunday school teachers made a statement that I was not comfortable with. She said If we as Christians open our hearts and minds and allow God to dwell within us then the devil cannot enter. She said we must walk with God daily to keep the devil out of our lives. I would submit we must walk with God every second, minute, hour just to live peacefully but none of us are without sin. The devil will lie dormant but I believe he is always there, lurking to seize the moment to cause havoc in our lives. We should be ever mindful and continue to humble ourselves so that God's grace will abound. We cannot be so self-righteous that we think Satan can do no harm. I researched the bible briefly last night and found scripture that reminds us to always keep our focus on God lest we be deceived. Mark 7:14-23 Hebrew 6: 1-6 and a few more I can't remember at this time. I would like your comments regarding both points of view and if possible some biblical text references. Thank you |
Bible Answer: Romans 6:1-23. please read this chapter.Freedom From Sins Grasp. your sunday school teacher was right. |
