This Sunday the preacher spoke on grace and sin.

Everyone needs Jesus Christ to be saved!
All are born in sin and shapen in iniquity. ( Psalms 51:5 )
--Inherited from Adam, we all are born sinners fresh out of the womb in need of a Savior before we even commit any act of sin. (Romans 5:19)

When anyone
1.) Repents (turn from all sin/forsake sin/change our sinful ways/are truly ready to stop living in sin and darkness) and....
2.) Believes on Jesus Christ as the scriptures hath said
( Mark 1:14-15 ) , ( Mark 6:12 ) , ( Acts 17:30 ) , ( Acts 11:18 )
( John 7:38-39 ) ,
Then GOD will fill that person with His Holy Spirit adopting us as a child of GOD, and washes us in the blood of Jesus Christ, forgiving us of the sins that are passed. (Romans 3:23-25) (Romans 8:15) ( Titus 3:5 )


GOD is love :). His grace is so good, but it is not a reason to continue in sin.

Those that are Christs are supposed to be dead to sin, having all sin destroyed by the power of the Holy Ghost. (Romans 8:13) (Galatians 5:24).

Main supporting texts: ( Romans 6:1-2 ) ( Romans 6:15 )

We will all stand before the judgement seat of Christ. ( 2 Corinthians 5:10-11 ). GOD has given us the power to stop sinning (our old man crucified and buried with Christ) by the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus. Now what have we done with this power? (Romans 8:13) (Acts 1:8)

So if you have sin in your life.... repent, and ask GOD to wash you in the blood of Jesus Christ and come back to your loving Father, and live holy and delight in a relationship with GOD!

The devil is a liar,
GODs love is better than sin. A relationship with the Father, and the Son and the Holy Ghost is so deep and fulfilling. This is what the world is missing, (but looking to the world to find the peace, and joy, and love), and many end in overdosing in drugs after having found out that all the money and "stuff" did not fill that search for peace, rest, contentment, and true joy and hope.

Putting down the sins in your life to truly yield yourself to Christ Jesus is so good! His loving kindness is better than life and worth letting go of sin or anything you put before Him!

And only by the Power of the Holy Spirit was I able to break free from the power of sin working in my flesh. Not just the deeds, but the power of Sin (the desire to commit the acts). I am not perfect, but by the Spirit of GOD I am striving to become more and more like Christ!

Continue reading GODs word and spending sweet time with Him in prayer and just let GOD comfort you always in all things. Continue sowing(feeding) the Spirit and not the flesh. (Galatians 6:8)

Our preacher also spoke on sin and the need of salvation, only to be found in the Lord Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross, and he gave a call to repent and be saved,

It's marvellous how God saves us when we put our faith in Christ repenting of our sin and grow in grace and we go on in obedience to His Word by being baptised in water and filled with the Holy Spirit. Saved 'by grace through faith in Christ'.

How I love the hymn,'Amazing Grace,how sweet the sound,that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now I'm found,was blind but now I see' (John Newton)

It's a wonderful hymn. :)

PS: I think you'll find it was written by John Newton.

'Jesus let me ever be,firmly grounded upon Thee. Ever in Thy work abide,ever in Thy wounds reside. Plant and root and fix in me,all the mind that was on Thee. Settled peace I then shall find. Jesus is a quiet mind' (Charles Wesley)
