There is a power and technique that the church has missed. The quiet stillness where real salvation is gifted to us effortlessly is real prayer. Please find it so we can all fight for our nation and right much more effectively!

Tell Roy Masters, at the Foundation for Human Understanding, that we all said "hi"!

We are all fallen, and incapable of “sinning no more”.

This is why we require repeated repentance and forgiveness, along with continual prayer.

To provide the strength and the grace to do better.

Knowing we will always fall short.

Know anybody who hasn’t sinned in the last year?
ya...me either...

An except from a book...”Three Free Sins” By Steve Brown (copyright 2012, Howard Books)
***********************************
A number of years ago, I spoke at a missions conference for religious leaders. God- who obviously thought it was funny- put me at the dinner table with one of the most uptight and angry men I've ever met. (Well, that may be an overstatement given that I've met a lot of uptight and angry people in my line of work. But he was certainly in the running.) When the conversation turned to the doctrine of entire sanctification, I worked really hard to be civil. (Entire sanctification is the doctrine that says a Christian can reach a place in his or her own life where there is no longer any known sin.)

But then the man claimed the experience of entire sanctification for himself.

I said something quite profound: “You've got to be kidding!”

“No,” he replied. “I'm not kidding. Holiness is never a kidding matter. God has granted me the victorious life, and I give Him all the glory.”
“What do you do with your pride?” I asked. “Seems to me that if you’ve won the medal for being the most humble man and you wear it, they should take it away. Isn't it kind of sinful to tell me that you're entirely sanctified? In fact, I think that if someone were entirely sanctified, he wouldn't even know it.”
I don't remember what he said, but I do remember that he was quite angry, and I didn't have to sit at the same table with him anymore because he avoided me the rest of the week. That made both of us happier.

I heard a couple of years later that he had left the ministry because of a moral failure.
*****************************************

A sinless life...entire sanctification...is NOT possible. Anyone who says it is is deceived. It is a lie from the pit of Hell and it smells like smoke.

Once Save - Always Saved doesn’t work for humans because we all sin.

If we are not sinning any more, we are six feet under in a grave.

Romans 6;9-18:
Rom 6:9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
Rom 6:10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
Rom 6:11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
Rom 6:12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.
Rom 6:13 Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness.
Rom 6:14 For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.
Rom 6:15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!
Rom 6:16 Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey--whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
Rom 6:17 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted.
Rom 6:18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
I find it quite interesting that he discusses sin with believers--not as a past issue, but as a present challenge to overcome and deal with.

Don't you find that interesting as well?
