Bible Question:
Does the Bible say that people can continue sinning and profess to be saved and go to heaven? |
Bible Answer: That can be a very complex answer. Some say you can be saved and once you are even if you sin you will still have salvation. Others say each sin can cost you, your salvation and that you must seek forgiveness for every sin you commit. The real question here is would a true Christian intentionally sin. I think not. If you are truly committed to serving God you will avoid sin. Does that mean you live sinless? No! I think many Christians today have the problem of sin by omission. Where they find themselves in sin because they did not show brotherly love, were not peacemakers, did not care for the widow and orphans. That then leads us to the question are they really saved. Frankly I think if you are really saved you don't even have to consider this question. Why? Because you know it does not pertain to you and you are smart enough to know that you aren't to judge another’s servant, that servant will stand or fall according to his master not your opinion. |
