08/20/16 PRESTIDIGITATOR OR PROPITIATION

08/20/16 PRESTIDIGITATOR OR PROPITIATION

There are some supposedly "great" Bible teachers who make it sound as if having a free will is sin. Of course that is absurd. God gave us a free will and the ability to use it, otherwise it is not a free will.

The sin is not in us having a free will, or in our using our free will. The sin is in using our free will against God.

God endowed us with free will, and He enables us to use our free will to do good or evil, otherwise there is no reason for judgment, because there is no willful sinning against God if there is no freedom of will.

God did not create sin, He does not cause sin or condone sin, He cannot sin and He will not coddle sin. God condemns sin. God conquers sin. God cleanses us from all sin.

There are no holy sinners and there are no sinful saints.

Any supposed salvation that does not save from sin is not the salvation of God.

Without Christ, without submitting to Christ, there is no possibility to live without sinning. Jesus is not the magician who gives the impression that our sins are gone, He is the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.
