I'm glad you see the sin without being a sinner. I really do try to be thought-provoking without my thoughts being provoking. : )Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-92055499037970678052011-01-11T00:01:40.378-05:002011-01-11T00:01:40.378-05:00Natasa ~

I don't believe I'm a "sinner", since I came to the Lord and the blood of Jesus cleaned and continues to cleanse, and one great day I get to die and go to heaven. [I'll be "yippee-ing" all the way there!!] But, I do sin... on a minute/daily basis. Attitude, blurting out in less-than-kind ways, nagging the Lord to break into some of the lives I'm hurting for, and on and on. IF I didn't know I was HIS daughter, his little girl, I'd be in real trouble. One of my favorite scriptures is Rom. 8, and that ain't gonna change.<br /><br />MAN, you really toss some thoughts out!!caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-35818890508942755962011-01-09T17:52:23.687-05:002011-01-09T17:52:23.687-05:00It is so easy to slip back to sin when we take off...It is so easy to slip back to sin when we take off our armor, when we forget to take our daily meal of God's word, when we are so caught in our activities forgetting who is the source of our life...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-14930944212522139272011-01-09T01:48:14.822-05:002011-01-09T01:48:14.822-05:00"And though we are no longer subject to the d..."And though we are no longer subject to the death penalty of law, we are subject to the discipline of our Father, Who takes a dim view of His children defaming His name with bad behavior." Amen sister! I tried explaining this to my son the other night. Discipline is TOUGH it is not worthy of the sin no matter how small. Trust me I know. :)<br /><br />*and please excuse my lack of blogging consistency! From October till now I've just been bowled over, but I'm getting back in the groove. (I think!)

This principle certainly isn't one that is critical to understand, but rather, it is a source of either comfort or conviction that the Holy Spirit speaks to the one who needs it—in that hour.<br /><br />You are correct. We need to know that we have a Savior, and that<br />it<br />is <br />finished!Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-72135157966304219792011-01-07T20:10:41.316-05:002011-01-07T20:10:41.316-05:00Bud ~

Can those who were never enslaved appreciate freedom as much as those who have been redeemed?<br /><br />And I was trying to <i>not</i> be deep. I think this is one of the most difficult questions raised by Scripture. I was trying to make it as simple as possible.
