CHRISTIANITY AND SIN
Are you a Christian?
Are you a Christian who sins?
Are you a Christian who chooses to sin?
Christianity and sin do not go hand in hand.
Every Christian will sin, but the problem is when a believer chooses to knowingly commit a sin repeatedly. When this is happening, a change needs to be made in that person, repentance. Simply put, we need to turn our back on the reoccurring sin and turn towards God. We need to make a choice, God or the sin, we can’t choose both.
According to scripture, when you become a Christian, you have to put your sins behind you. You left your sins in the past when became a believer, and that’s where they need to stay.
We can not live in our shed sins. If we are, we didn’t shed them, and we are not letting the Holy Spirit lead us.
Yes, Jesus forgives us. But, when we become a new creation in Christ, we shed our sins, wanting to be more like Christ, not our old self.
By shedding our sins, and not turning back to them, we are becoming a living sacrifice holy and acceptable to God!
This will not be easy, but if we let God make us a new creation it is possible! God will renew our mind, and refresh our soul and spirit. God does this for us so we will have the ability to NOT conform to this world, but to God’s will!
