John 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Just to be clear.....

“For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” (KJV)

John 1:14-17
That is the Berean Study Bible; the Berean Literal Bible is the same, and so is the NIV -:)-

Quite a few other versions leave out the "but."

FAQ: Supposing I'm one of those natural-born liars. How am I supposed to
escape the wrath of God in my condition?

REPLY: Bible Christianity is a lethal religion. In some mysterious way-- which
I have never yet been able to fully understand --God accounts Christ's
believers as joint participants in his crucifixion.

Rom 6:3 . . Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into his death?

Rom 6:6 . . Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him

Gal 2:20 . . I am crucified with Christ

Col 3:2-3 . . Set your affection on things above, not on things on the
earth. For you are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

As a result: Christ's believers are now immune to the wages of sin.

John 5:24 . . I assure you: those who listen to my message, and believe in
God who sent me, have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their
sins, but they have already passed from death into life.

Here's a suggestion:

Find a quiet place, anywhere will do. Cover you face with your hands for a
sense of privacy and tell God you have never yet measured up to His
standards and you're pretty sure you never will. Tell Him you would like to
take advantage of His son's death, and thank Him for His time.

Buen Camino
