cross for us, if we accept Jesus as our savor then we are to obey his commandments, not break them, we are to live a righteous and holy life as possible, the bible plainly list a whole list of things if we live in will not to to heaven unless we repent, if we
die while in these sins, we will not go to heaven, what is the difference, between someone who
said a prayer and someone who did not, and they are living the same way, none, i think, if we are truly saved it should be hard to do these things let alone live and do them everyday, i would be afraid to tell people that it does not matte grace covers their sins, i really think it is the slip ups that we are convicted of by the Holy Spirit and we ask for forgivness, how can anyones heart be right with God and they have sex all the time out of marriage, lie, break every commandment of God, i don't think this is meaning grace covers those sins, until they repent and ask for forgiveness, a lot of people will end up in hell because preachers teach Grace the wrong way,, and those preachers will answer to God for leading these people the wrong way, not
saying you are one of them, but be careful, everything we teach or preach must line up with the word of God, God hates sin,

die to yourself by taking up your
cross daily... not being centered

cross, rose again the 3rd day, and put your faith and trust in HIM, HIM alone, you are going to HEAVEN, anythingelse is useless, if you can get to HEAVEN
on your good deeds, why would HE had to
