“Now, can I sin? Can I fail to obey? Yes, and I do.”

Why does God have to accept this sin? because you say you’re saved?

Don’t you think your making your own decision that you’re saved?

God said he forgives or sin because of the work of Jesus. My sins have been paid for by the blood of the Lamb.

Did I make my own decision to be saved? No way. Man, in his sin nature is dead. Man in this condition cannot please God, and has no desire to please God. God is the one who gives the faith, God is the one who changes a man. God is the one who saves. It is nothing by man, all by God.
