Sin

Messiah said to a man He healed in John 5:14, sin no more, so that no worse thing happens to you. Messiah said again to a woman that was an adulteress in John 8:11, neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more.

In both these cases they were forgiven, but Messiah gave them both an instruction not to sin anymore.

Romans 6:18-20 when being set free from sin through Messiah, you become servants of righteousness. When we were servants of sin, we did not have righteousness.

This means when you accepted Messiah, your sins were washed away! You become clean and you live clean! Why? Because Messiah is in you and you in Him! Do you get it!

1 Corinthians 15:34, Wake up to soberness, righteously, and do not sin, for some do not have the knowledge of Elohim. I speak this to your shame.

Do you have knowledge of Elohim? If you do, you will not sin!

1 Peter 4:1-2, Therefore, since Messiah suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, because he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, so that he no longer lives the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but according to the desire of Elohim.

Lusts of men are flesh, equals sin! Messiah suffered in the flesh, so should those who follow Him. What does it mean “he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin.” This means that what the flesh wants you to do like example; when you are invited to a party where alcohol is freely available, drugs are given to anyone to make the party more enjoyable, loud dirty rock music is played and bad language is used but you fight the huge to go and you do not go even though you love dancing. The struggles of the flesh you have overcome. Note I have used an extreme example of the flesh but it could be addicted to shopping, work and even self-seeking or loving of money or dirty language.

Sin is lawlessness.

1 John 3:4-10, everyone doing sin also does lawlessness.

Verse 5, Messiah was manifested to take away our sins and in Him there is no sins.

Verse 6, everyone staying in Messiah does not sin; everyone sinning has not the Messiah nor know Him.

Verse 7, Do not be mislead, the one doing righteousness is righteous as the Messiah is righteous.

Verse 8, the one doing sin is of the devil as the devil sinned from the beginning, the Messiah was manifested to destroy the works of the devil.

Verse 9, everyone born from Messiah does not sin because he stays in Him.

Verse 10, everyone not doing righteousness is not of Elohim (Almighty) and he does not love his brother.

1 John 5:18, If you are born of the Messiah, he does not sin and guards himself from the wicked.

The verses above are very clear: If you have accepted the Messiah in your life and you are still sinning, you do not have the Spirit of Messiah (Holy Spirit). Messiah says, you do not know Him.

I have been taught that it is impossible not to sin, even when born again through Messiah, but according to scripture this is not true, and the above verses tell me that when I have accepted Messiah in my life and truly live and obey His Word, I will be able to not sin. Sin = lawlessness, Messiah = no sin, me through the Messiah = no sin (a choice I make).

With Messiah, you will not sin; if you are sinning you do not have Messiah. The only way to do this is to be out of the world (flesh) and truly have Messiah in all parts of your life (Spirit). This is possible; do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

This is a big offering to turn away from worldly entertainment. This is not easy but it is possible and is an ongoing process. The more you put your trust in Him that made you, the more closer you come to Him, an ongoing growth, which never ends.

 Can we make mistakes, “Yes,” we can and we will, but they are mistakes, not done purposely. We also learn from our mistakes but do we keep on doing those mistakes! No, we learn, realize the mistake, repent and turn away from them.

To grow and to get closer to Him and find the truth, you have to obey and give up many things, as worldly stuff just keeps you away from Him. That is what satan does, keeps you occupied of the worldly entertainment; TV, sport, games, face book and so on.

He promises that if you obey and trust Him, He will bless you and I believe Him.

The closer you are to Him the less you sin, until no more.

This does not happen overnight and you cannot do it on your own, you need the Spirit of Yahauh!

It is an everlasting progress, but if you endure to the end, you will make it!

With the Messiah's Spirit, everything is possible, on your own, nothing is possible.

 Praise Yah, He saves!
