- In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins,

But even more!
Washed Away!

prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed
us from our sins in his own blood,
Cut Away -

with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of
the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Kept Away! -

4:8,24 - Blessed is the man to whom the

by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled In the body of his flesh
through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in
his sight:
We are never again called a sinner!
In OT, that was the Gentiles (dogs). Now it is the lost people
that are referred to as sinners.
Receive for the right AND wrong!
We know that we will still receive for the wrong (not sins) that we
do! Colossians 3:24,25 - Knowing
that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye
serve the Lord Christ. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for
the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
Open beforehand and later!
We also know that Some men's sins are open
beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after. Likewise
also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are
otherwise cannot be hid. I Timothy
5:24,25
But through all that, we must
remember,
Now if I do that I would not, it is no
more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
2. Gives you trouble in the flesh!

not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare
you.

ye sin against Christ.
4. Be a bad witness!

God: I speak this to your shame.

Seat - but not the inheritance... that is reserved!

If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself
shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
8. We give the devil an opportunity to accuse Christ!

I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength,
and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser
of
our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
9. Rob you of God's peace!
Philippians 4:6,7 -
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace
of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus.

Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and
seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10. We live like spoiled unthankful childish brats that make
God sick!

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue
thee out of my mouth.
We ought still not partake! I Timothy 5:22 - ... neither be partaker of other men's sins...
We need to be rebuked! I Timothy 5:20 - Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
Strengthen our conscience so you can take the
preaching we need!
We have no excuse - we have the
Book! We can't claim a seared or defiled conscience, only a weak
one!
II Corinthians 4:1, 2 -
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint
not; But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in
craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation
of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight
of God.
We are to preach to their conscience!
II Corinthians 5:11,12 -
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made
manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory
on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in
appearance, and not in heart.
We need Paul to preach to and at us!

desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand
in doubt of you.

we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish
the law.

forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace?

Quit giving place to the devil!

give place to the devil.
Stop feeding the flesh!
(including those subtle and subliminal foods such as
music, images, tv/videos, etc.)
Romans 13:14:
But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh,
to fulfil the lusts thereof.
We need to quit 'choosing' to follow sin!
Romans 6:6 - Knowing
this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might
be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Romans 6:13 - Neither
yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield
yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members
as instruments of righteousness unto God.
Examine Yourself!
Are you truly saved? do you KNOW? or have
you been tricked into a false salvation by an imitation spirit by imitation
preaching out of an imitation bible in an imitation church?
II Corinthians 13:5 -
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.
Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye
be reprobates?
Matthew 7:21-23 -
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom
of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in
thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many
wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew
you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
If you know you are saved, then expect a battle!
Romans 7:25 - I
thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself
serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
It is more than just another "Book!"
It isn't even the ''bible."
It is the Holy Scriptures - the King James Bible!
It is how we Sup with Christ!
Revelation 3:20
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
when sorrows like sea billows roll;
whatever my lot, thou hast taught me
to say, It is well, it is well with my soul.
Refrain:
It is well with my soul, it is well,
it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should
come, let this blest assurance control,
that Christ has regarded my helpless
estate, and hath shed his own blood for my soul.
(Refrain)
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
is nailed to the cross, and I bear it
no more, praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
(Refrain)
And, Lord, haste the day when my faith shall
be sight, the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound, and the Lord
shall descend, even so, it is well with my soul.
(Refrain)
