Thought of the Day !!

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?
                                                                                  Romans 6:1 (NIV)

Some people believe that after they're saved and baptized that they can do whatever they wish. Now this may sound ludicrous to you.  But the fact is that there are those who,though not claiming this belief, go on living the same sinful life after they have accepted Jesus.  Or maybe they change for a month or a year or so.  Then after a short while they go back to being the same old person they once were.  They are the rocky soil that the seed of God's Word was placed in, the soil where it could not take root. 

By no means are we expected to be perfect.  And by know means are we expected to keep to a rigid law feeling guilty for every sin we commit.  Jesus came and died to end both of these things.  What He wants from us is to believe and accept the salvation He has for us, while also changing our lives to the best of our ability to be more like His.

In the love of Christ,
greg
