The concept of once saved always saved takes a bit to get your head around but Gods grace is greater than our sin

faith in Jesus Christ to recieve Gods grace.In saying that to continue to sin as a christian is like playing with fire you will be burnt.Paul talks of the sexual immorality in corinthian church of the son
and father that were sleeping with the same wife they were excommunicated from the church the members were not allowed to even eat with them until they repented.There are consequences for our actions.The other side to this is that if you continue to sin as a christian you are not walking
by faith but walking
by the flesh
and are really backsliding.In the backslidden state you also become powerless
and open to attack
by satan as long as we walk in the flesh he can influence us to get worse not better.If we are walking in Christ satan may still try to tempt us but we are empowered
by the holy spirit
and overcome him
and our
faith increases.Both are saved
by grace but one is powerless because of sin versus saved but an overcomer having been set free from sin i think this is what Paul was trying to explain.It is better to be an overcomer than overcome
by sin.brentnz
