Also, you never clarify how your OSAS is different from there's.
So, I would be glad to hear your teaching of OSAS.
The most simply stated, we neither caused ourselves to be born of our natural parents, nor did we cause ourselves to be born from God. And in that same way, just as we cannot cause ourselves to be somehow "unborn" from our parents, neither can we cause ourselves to be "unborn" from God. We just aren't capable of such things. Having been born, we exist, that's that.
When we believe God, receiving Jesus, He immerses us into Jesus' death and burial. In doing this, we share the result of His death, we are separated from our flesh. If we die without Jesus, our soul separates from the flesh, and awaits judgment. In Christ, however, we have a new life, and our body, though dead because of sin, remains our "temporary home" in this world.
At no time does God say that He will cause or allow His spiritual children to die a spiritual death, and many times He affirms this does not happen.
God speaks in His Word to both saved and unsaved, and to unsaved who think they are saved. He gives the means by which we know which we are.
Having been born from God, we are alive with His life, alive because we are united to Him. We have been justified from our sin, that is, separated by death and a new creation, that in our new creation we do not share the guilt of our flesh.
You're objection is that I still commit sins, and that's not what a Christian does, so that's that, Oh you who believe OSAS and sin! You are lost because of that sin. Your OSAS is hypocrisy! (Correct me if I'm wrong please)
And I reply that God is working in us that we do not sin, and that as we walk in the Spirit, we don't sin, and that more consistent walking in the Spirit happens as our faith increases, as we become more mature in our faith.
God shows in His Word that He will spend the rest of our lives continuing to improve us. He assures us that even though we may, perhaps will, commit sins, Jesus is our forever intercessor, and nothing will separate us from His love.
And He answers this objection that OSAS makes me somehow "soft on sin", or otherwise unwilling to resist it,
1 John 3:1-3 KJV
1) Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but
we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3) And every man that hath
this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
This hope - our expectation according to His promise, that we will in fact see Him, and we will in fact be like Him when we do see Him - when we have
this hope, we purify ourselves. OSAS causes us to live more pure lives.
And this makes sense also, as we realize that our reconciliation to God is not based on what we do or don't do, it's found in Christ's death, His forever accomplished "act of obedience". We are reconciled, we are reborn, and now, our minds are being renewed. Retraining the ways we think, to be in alignment with what God says in His Word, and by His Spirit in our hearts as we come to know Him, and His wonderful love for us.
It's in realizing that Jesus keeps me saved, not me, that I become free from the tyranny of my legalistic conscience, which condemns me, leads me to think I'm cut off from God, while God Himself, my actual Lord, Master, is always here and at the ready to guide me not by conscience but in my spirit.
Conscience is good, but conscience isn't perfect, and you had a conscience before you were reborn, so it too is subject to the renewing of the mind. God has to fix our conscience like He does the rest of our mind and soul. We don't serve our conscience, we serve Christ.
Conscience is simply our own personal version of "The Law", and as such, actually provokes sin in the flesh,
Romans 7:5 KJV
For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
So while it seems good to obey the commandments, they are not the spiritual ruling of Christ in your heart, and it becomes not serving Christ Himself, instead serving the list of commandments such as you understand and interpret them. There are many of course that we cannot do in this day.
But in obeying Christ Himself, we fulfill all that needs be fulfilled. He already fulfills the Law "in us", notice He does not say "through us", or "by us". This is not to say that being born again makes Gentiles automatically compliant to Mosaic Law, the Law and the Prophets. Even the Sermon on the Mount, while it shows God's way of understanding these things, does not replace the Holy Spirit in our hearts guiding us, showing us His wisdom and life.
Make no mistake, I do not diminish Scripture. It's how we know if we are in error or not. It's how we discover and grow, and I think the Bible is the way to reform our thinking processes to be Godly. Read it, study it, meditate on it, learn it.
At the end of the day, we are reconciled in Christ, and not in our own behavior. Having received that reconciliation, God gives us new life, Jesus' life within us, which is eternal and everlasting. From this time forward, as we continue to live in corrupt flesh, He continues to train us in righteousness, doing His works and not our own
When the end of our terrestrial life comes, He will transform our bodies into bodies uncorrupted by sin. And since our spirit is joined to God's Spirit, and since our flesh will be "uncorrupted", we will share life with Him forever.
If you want more detail, or the Scritpures where I find these teachings, I will, again, be happy to oblige!
Much love!
