Subject: The Purpose of Testing! |
Bible Note: Greetings Tim! As this "faith development" continues, it must not be impeded by sin! Acts 15:9 states, "and He made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith." This, in effect, helps to justify our new relationship with God, through faith (Rom. 5:1). And we are waiting for that "final verdict" of 'not guilty' that is assured to the believer by faith and by the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:5). Therefore, the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit in and of itself directly aids us as we seek to better condition our "faith muscles".. Just a thought! Your Brother in Christ, Nolan |
