*****
In our struggle with sin, we have the assurance of God’s forgiveness as we turn to him in prayer. And a church family to confess our sins, encourage and rebuke one another in love as we grow to maturity in Christ; Eph 4:15-16. Like I’m trying to do here. But even more we have the help of his Word that works to change us through ongoing transformation.
God’s free gift of salvation isn’t just a sinless card to start over, that wouldn’t be enough, but a new heart willing to submit to king Jesus and ongoing renewal of our minds by his Word.
He started the work, is at work presently and will surely accomplish it on the day of Christ.
We have real help in our struggles and sure hope in our loving King Jesus.
