Jeremy Myers, i think you are wrong and David is right, so many out there are preaching you can live any way you want and be right that Grace covers any
sin, they really believe that, that is not what the bible says, God was very concerned about
sin so much he sent Jesus his son
to die on a 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,
God is willing and able
to forgive us for everything,
in part because He knows all the events and circumstances which
led up
to whatever
sin we committed.

sin is, our hearts are condemned by our pride.It wasnt the
sin of homosexuality or sexual deviance that destroyed sodom.It was there pride and it is one of our biggest stumbling blocks
in our christian walk or it certainly was for me.We look at the story of the adulterous woman and we think adultery is a terrible crime but the story is for our benefit
to show that we all are sinners that Jesus does nt condemn us but came
to save us.And when Jesus says go and
sin no more he was not only talking
to the woman but everyone else that was around judging her for her
sin its a universal message that we all need
to see that we all are condemned because of our
sin that Jesus came
to save us and that we turn from our
sin and follow him.Because he is the way the truth and the life.brentnz
