RE: No longer a slave to sin (pt 1)

in #steemchurch8 years ago

This is a great message. The result or outcome of the act(sin) committed was being avoided by the sacrifice but the thought of the act in the mind of the offender was retained. Hmm! It was a strong hold master minded by the devil to keep people in bondage. This is similar with some Christians toady, slaves to the guilt of their past and present faults. Look at our second scripture Hebrews 9, it says the sacrifice made during the time of Moses and before the coming of Jesus, was made to purify the flesh. A means of justification for the man to be free from the physical act of sin committed but in reality, was still trapped in his mind. For this purpose, Jesus came and it says that the blood of Jesus can purge our minds and conscience frok every dead work of the flesh. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God. Thanks for sharing

You said it right. God have forgiven us, now we too have to forgive ourselves.
