And therefore , because we have the Holy Spirit ( permanently until the day of redemption .Rom 8.23 . Eph 1.14 . Eph 4.30.) ..What your missing from what Paul is repeatedly saying is , because we are secure , we do . Because of our security we preach and share with others . Because we are forgiven, we forgive . The motivation is Eternal security . You have it backwards . There is no maturity, no growth, no Gospel preaching from your position. Which is the breeding ground for legalism , Lordship salvation , works gospel and no fruit bareing .
The English here is very plain to see, read and understand. You cannot harmonise it because it does not conform to your doctrine. You do not want to uproot the wrong foundations that you have been building on. Therefore the only alternative is to twist the scripture. Why anybody would want to do that this side of the grave or rapture is beyond comprehension.
I will post the scripture again. Plain for all to see.
Romans 8v13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
The Spirit is only given to those who have believed in Jesus Christ, and no other. And this self-same scripture above says that you are to by the Holy Spirit put to death the misdeeds of your body you so that you will LIVE (
SALVATION). So you are not ultimately saved YET. You are only justified. Salvation happens at the end.
Romans 5
9 Much more then,
having now been justified (past tense) by His blood, we
shall be saved (future) from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were enemies
we were reconciled (past tense) to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled,
we shall be saved (future) by His life.
