Being Justified.... Sin has no more dominion over you.

Having been made Lords over sin why do some still bow down to sin ? Its as if some who profess to be Christians think they can serve two masters.

Why do we as Christians continually battle sin ?

Why do we as Christians continually battle sin ?

The scripture tells us that when Christ died and was resurrected he defeated sin and sin was done away with.

Having been made Lords over sin why do some still bow down to sin ? Its as if some who profess to be Christians think they can serve two masters.

Our lives now should be centered on living for Christ. Now we are Lords over sin. Now sin has no part in our lives.

When we fall short of what we know would be pleasing to Christ do not give sin the credit. Sin has been done away with. Sin no longer has dominion over us.

Because we are joint-heirs with Jesus Christ we are the Sons of God. As Sons we are held accountable for our deeds. If the deeds we have done are against the will of God then we as His children will be chastised.

As a child of God You can ask for forgiveness, however because you are no longer under the bondage of sin, the hand of God will fall upon you in the form of chastisement for whom He loves he chastises

Rest assured .....Sin has no part in this relationship.

WE have been set free from sin and its condemnation. WHAT A WONDERFUL GIFT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN !!!!

After we have been born again and commit a sin, we do suffer the results of that sin until we repent, however we do not lose the security of our eternal inheritance even if we do not repent because Christ's death paid for that sin.

Poor kid, you don’t know grace. Very sad.

Because the whole subject of sin in the believer's life is generally not addressed fully and properly from Scripture. Our focus should be on righteousness, and then sin will lose its power. Actions speak louder than words.

First, I imagine, is that Christ came for sinners, not the perfected. Therefore, we first enter the church as sinners, for the offer was 'do you want forgiveness'?, not, 'do you want perfection in your earthly life?'. Therefore, there's still work to do...
...but, yes, why offend Christ when he's done so much for you, why regress to your former ways, ...but more fundamentally, why indulge in things that offer no dignity, pleasure or satisfaction, but only insatiability, shame and loss of character?
Wisdom strengthens and protects. If you truly saw the depravity and subversiveness of sin, and understood not only that God prohibits it, but why he prohibits it, you wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.
It would be great to think that we could resist sin simply because we know that if offends God & Christ. But, I think that, unless you start to see the true perverse nature of sin, so that it starts to offend you, the struggle, conflict and failures will remain. i.e. It's difficult to indulge in something that you have nothing but contempt and repulsiveness for.
i.e. 'have the mind of Christ', what offends him, should insightfully and profoundly offend you too, and for the same reasons.

Thank the Lord,that Jesus came NOT to condemn but to save!

He is our advocate when we fail to live continually in His righteousness!

I am sooooo thankful that EVERY sin hung on Him at that cross!

I will NOT give place to the devil either!

NO DOMINION,JUST HIS FORGIVENESS!

Its a wonderful life to walk daily with Christ without condemnation. When I stray from the path I always know His hand will bring me back. Some time all it takes is a gentle nudge some times it comes with chastisement and many tears. How ever it never separates me from His Love. I like you will never give evil a place between me and the one who died in order to bring me to His side.

How do Believers walk in the Spirit that brings no condemnation?

I know you understand that righteousness comes through faith and because you are righteous you are justified and being justified we have peace with God. I know you understand this and because I know you understand this I do not know how to answer your question. Perhaps you could give me more insight into your thoughts.
