I give thanks to our heavenly dad in the name of Jesus for birthing us and calling us his own in this world. And in the name of his beloved son, He will make our understanding enlightened. Yes, in this world of sin you can live sin free if you desire to. Hebrews 9:14 says "How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot,cleanse your conscience from evil works.. " Two things are listed in this verse 1.The Blood of Christ 2.Eternal Spirit or Holy Spirit. We all know the blood was shed to redeem from sins. And also the Holy Spirit was given to help in our Christian walk. This same spirit helped the Lord to offer himself without sin in the world which he lived. He was surrounded by temptations, all manner, lusts, anger, theft etc. He was tempted in all points we all are tempted,even with greater degree, yet he didn't sin. See Hebrews 4:15.Because the Eternal Spirit helped him out to live sin free in a world prone to temptations. My people, you have now the blood and the Holy Ghost in you to help. 1.The Blood -To make free. 2.The Holy Spirit -To Help you stay freed.Listen to Him. You can live a sin free life if you desire and choose to. Amen. 2 Likes |

Blue86: yeah. true to your write-up. a sin-free life is like pleasing God in the beauty and splendour of holiness(God takes great delight in it). but who is as perfect as Jesus Christ himself? |

Not true. As long as we are in this world, have our bodies of death we would sin 1John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. It's not possible to live a sin-free life now because a Christian's life is a life of continuous repentance from sin. 1 John 1:9-10 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us. The "closer" we get to God in fellowship the more sinful we appear because we see our hidden sins clearly (those things we thought were not sins). We confess them and He purges us through His word, giving us the grace to overcome them through faith in Him. Don't be a legalistic Christian who relies on his works of the law to "sin less" because that has so many implications. From deceiving oneself that he is good to go when he is still deep in sin, to calling God a liar and making Christ's death a waste. God has not called us to live a "sin-free" life in this world but to have faith in Christ who is our righteousness. It is through this faith that we would live in obedience to Him. We would continue to see our need for grace as long as we are here until we get new resurrected bodies. Hebrew 4:16 Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. |
