AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 6:11 And such were some of you [before you believed]. But you were washed [by the atoning sacrifice of Christ], you were sanctified [set apart for God, and made holy], you were justified [declared free of guilt] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God [the source of the believer's new life and changed behavior]. |
Subject: Just as if I had never sinned? |
Bible Note: Dear JVH0212, No misunderstanding. I was also referring to righteousness meaning no sin. The OT is our teacher, and Balaam was told by God that Israel was blameless, even though the other prophets proclaimed Israel's guilt. We of the NT can claim righteousness as an eternal reward of our faith, but in practice we have not yet achieved it. Please look at the note that I posted to the original questioner, 'load.' |
