Is Speeding a Sin?

[JuJube]

Just for the record, I am glad there are many interested in discussing this, I thought there would be as I have always wanted to talk about this. Love reading all your responses, please continue. How does one know it wouldn't send them to hell. Give scriptural references please.

Well, it guess you could say it could send you to hell IF YOU DO NOT have Christ as your Savior, and been born again. When I took Jesus as my Savior, He forgave me for past, present, future sins. No, this doesn't give me a license to sin, but I am nowhere close to being perfect. I've been justified by what Jesus did on the cross, now I am being santified, but it is a process. I don't believe that you can lose your salvation. If you can't earn your salvation, then you can't maintain it either. Eph. 2:8,9
For by grace are you saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. V.9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Does the Bible say whether or not speeding in your car is a sin? If so or if not, please discuss...

Yes, I think it is a sin since it is a violation of the law and God had others in authority over us put that law there for our safety.
Not to mention it is risking the safety of others.

That is a pretty awesome picture. I think it that circumstance the need to protect self and others comes before normal traffic laws. In other words, I would drive like a crazy person getting the heck away from that tornado.

Thank you for saying so...it seems that we have a lot of yes responses...what do you all who said yes believe?

Do you need to repent immediately if you go one mile over the limit, and if you do not and get into an accident and die the next minute, do you go to hell?

Please discuss...
