Bible Note: Greetings Acuyfm06! It is good to hear from you again! Your summary sounds pretty good. If would be like someone claiming that they had accepted Christ, but yet continued to live in sin. Would you believe that they were really new creations? In the same way, because we are new creations, we will have the evidence to back it up. But, the evidence is the result of salvation, not the cause of salvation. p.s. - Please, just call me Tim! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
