The Lord gave me three passages for my restoration....Common Man, You have admitted that you have done this, If By the Standard you use if it is measured to you you fail by your own standard, Don't you see the hypocrisy of your teaching
Do you understand the difference between Sin And Sins? The Bible Talks of wilful sin One time, What do you think that Sin is?
1) Ezekiel 33:11-20....which creates in me the fear of the LORD so that I will not return to a lifestyle of sinning.
2) Numbers 20...which shows that, Moses, who blundered in that passage, was not allowed to enter the promised land as the result...and yet, at the Mount of transfiguration, we find him in the promised land.
3) Hosea 1:10, which tells me that although I was not one of His people, now I am a child of the living God (according to the literal understanding of 1 John 3:9).
So I do not any longer fall by my own standard. I have now been perfected for ever (Hebrews 10:14 (kjv), 1 John 3:6, 1 John 2:17).
I know that such a thing is offensive to someone who wants to believe that they can continue in a lifestyle of sinning and that they are still "saved by grace". (But grace is the enabling power of the Lord; and in Ephesians 2:1-8 it is clear that those who are saved by grace do not any longer walk according to the dictates of the prince of the power of the air, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind).
Jesus has restored me to a place in Him, where I have repented for the third time in my life and surrendered my besetting sin to Him and laid it at the foot of the Cross.
