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
