How I Stopped Sinning - Robert Lyte by vanen2: 12:38pm On Feb 20, 2015 |
Most Christians cannot believe nor accept that Jesus can SET PEOPLE FREE FROM PRACTICING SIN, even though that is written in the bible. People like to cling to abstract verse that they believe support anti-Christ doctrines such as: we are all sinners and we can never stop. The reason it is ANTI-Christ, is because when we are all sinners, and we cannot stop, yet we claim Jesus, we are actually NULLIFYING his words. We are going AGAINST his words. That is why it is ANTI-Christ. Jesus said in John 8:37 that, "Those who sin, are sins slave." Now we all know that slaves are not FREE. They are not free to carry out their own intentions, rather what their master TELLS THEM. And if your master is SIN, because YOU SIN, then you are not FREE to walk righteously. And that is the situation that many Christians and unbelievers find themselves in, because they follow SIN, and they are sin's SLAVE and just cannot stop. That is why they like to say, "We are all sinners," which is true, because THEY ARE. But the thing is, SOME people DO get freed. We read on in John 8:37-39, that Jesus said, "He whom the Son of Man sets FREE (from sin) shall be FREE INDEED." And he is faithful to those words that he spoke. He will indeed FREE you, from being a SINNER. He will free you from sin being YOUR MASTER. He said he came to 'break the bondage free,' and to 'loose the chains.' And that is exactly what he did for me: he LOOSED my chains of sin, he BROKE the bondage of sin over me so I could live a NEW life, no longer sinning everyday. 1 John 1:8 states that NOBODY can state they are WITHOUT sin, because I look back over my past life, and I can see I was never righteous enough to save myself. I had sins there that would condemn me, if Jesus did not forgive them. And so, I look forward to Jesus that he set me free from all that evil that I used to do, and as is written in 1 John 3:6: Those who KNOW him, don't continue to sin. It is all about KNOWING Jesus. If you want to STOP being a sinner, you need to KNOW Jesus. If you want to stop being in the lukewarm state, you need to KNOW Jesus. But it is a personal choice. If you want to just believe deception, and you want to just keep being a sinner, and keep lacking self-control, and keep being sin's slave, having sin as your master, then you can NEVER be free. And, by the way, you will also end up in hell. But if you want to COME OUT of sin, and you really don't want to keep doing the sins you are doing, because you know they are wrong and God hates it, but you know that Jesus has mercy for you and forgiveness, THEN COME TO JESUS and let him FREE you. Get to KNOW him. Choose to KNOW him. Then he will know you, and then you will become free. And he will work with you to KEEP you free, if you will work with him. And that is where the SORTING process starts. I hope that you get sorted the right way, because a lot of people come to Jesus and start to come on the right way, and have his freedom, but in the end, their HEART was never right for the kingdom, and the ultimately started to choose sin again, they went back UNDER BONDAGE, and ended up 7 times worse and ended up in hell! You see, friends, I just hope that our hearts, are hearts of the GOOD GROUND, where we just DO THE WORD everyday and we STAY in freedom from sin, and we are not like those who go off back to evil, become unfit for Jesus, and end up in the fire. Choose the right way today, and STAY choosing Jesus. May he bless you. www.robertlyte.yolasite.com 1 Like |

Satan Was Correct! / Did Jesus Spend 3 Days And 3 Nights As He Promised? / If I Should Worship Any Deity, I Think It Would Be The Christian Satan. See Why
