WHAT ABOUT SIN? - 7

GRACE IS THE SOLUTION, NOT THE LICENSE TO SIN

Grace is the solution to sin, hear that LOUD AND CLEAR!

Grace is the ONLY ANTIDOTE TO SIN! You cannot stop your sinful actions by your own effort! You will always fail!

On the other hand, you cannot teach a believer to stop sinning, no and never!

A believer is not a sinner; a sinner is not a believer.

The sins (verb) in the flesh of the believer will be taken care of but the Holy Spirit with time. This is what was recorded in the book of Philippians as “working out” of salvation. It is a working that must be drawn from the spirit of the believer through the soul to the physical. It is a not human work. Any human who dares it will wear out with frustration.

Now watch how Paul wrote it to Pastor Titus “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and world lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world, looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.”

So it is Grace that BRINGS salvation not (do not do this, do not do that…) and it is grace that can TEACH us how to live soberly, righteously and godly... not any Pastor, not any Sunday school teacher, not any Apostle.

This is evident in the scriptures and in our everyday practical lives. There have been many people especially believers who wish to stop the sin they commit, but could not stop them. Even, our Apostle Paul lamented severally about this inability. He said he couldn’t stop himself from doing what is contrary to God, though he wished he could do. And that every time he wants to do well, he is always failing.

This is because the soul and body of the believer is not yet perfect and is conflicting the dictates of the born again spirit. Inside the born again spirit is the mind of Christ and inside the soul is our fallen mind. So there is conflict every day, that’s why Paul said in the book of Galatians that the flesh and the spirit are contrary to one another. What the spirit wants is not what the flesh wants.

So there is no human being on earth that can be free themselves from the actions of sin, weakness and imperfections. This can only be achieved when you come to the end of your efforts and absolutely depend upon the help of the Holy Spirit. That is why the Holy Spirit will never leave a believer. The Holy spirit‘s job is to transform every believer daily.

So stop trying to help him. It is his job not your job.

There are many persons who when they hear us preach or teach these truths of God’s word on sin, think that we endorse sin. This is not true; rather we are encouraging people to stop exalting sin or having fear for sin. Why? Anyone who fears sin will never conquer its actions in their life. You cannot defeat what you fear. And that is why we shout it loud every time that sin is dead. This is for you to gain confidence over your addictions and weaknesses.

There have been many testimonies already about addictions, weaknesses and problems all been solved by the outworking power of the Holy Spirit and by absolute dependence on the finished works of Christ.

Grace is the just the solution. It is what you need. Not a list of dos and don’ts.

You know, at times, many pastors are causing more damage to the kingdom of God than the devil, they teach that a believer will go to hell because of their weaknesses and imperfections. That is a very big lie! This is because even the pastor who communicated these junks is not also perfect. And everyone who demands perfection and yet is not perfect is a disappointment to the Church.

Jesus has settled it all. He is now in us, working in us daily, to make us holy and godly, for the world to see and for us to produce good works. The spirit has been sealed forever no doubt, no sin can enter there.

Now no matter your struggles, problems, addictions, weaknesses, sin, maybe it is masturbation, pornography, drugs, fornications, sex addiction, theft, robbery, lies, adultery, and idolatry, whatever it is, and maybe you belong to a cult or evil gang, whatever it is… MAY I INFORM YOU THAT, YOUR PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED WHEN YOU TURN TO THE GRACE OF GOD. Release yourself from condemnation. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

ALL YOUR PROBLEMS AND ADDICTIONS ARE NOT GREATER THAN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST.

TURN AWAY FROM YOUR SELF-EFFORTS, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FRUSTRATED.

TURN TO GRACE, TURN TO CHRIST.

It shall be well with you. I love you so much and God loves you more!
