Jan 4, 2022 · Those who rebelled in committing intentional sin were to be cut off or separated from the people. While there may have been a distinction in terms of the consequences of unintentional and intentional sins in the Old Testament, the Bible is clear all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory (Romans 3:23).

But the correct biblical response to sin is immediate, sincere repentance, confession of those sins to God, and a recognition of and agreement with God’s desire that we “not sin.” • To such a genuinely repentant believer, the Lord will always grant His gracious forgiveness.

The key verse that he’s referring to goes like this: “For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins” (Hebrews 10:26). In other words, we’re beyond salvation. Now, two observations about this phrase “go on sinning deliberately” are really important. First, the word delib...
This is a correction to Josh’s assumption that all sinning is equally willing — or all human acts are equally willing — since all acts, including sin, are acts of the will. That’s true. They are acts of the will. We choose them. This text, Hebrews 10:26, is saying something more than that the sin which destroys the soul is an act of the will. Of co...
Now here’s the second thing to notice in the phrase “go on sinning deliberately” [or “willingly” or “eagerly”].” It’s that phrase “go on sinning,” which is a good translation of the present tense of the Greek verb for sin. In other words, it’s not a single act; it’s not a few acts; it’s not periodic acts. It’s rather a settled, persistent continuat...
I have two passages that stop me from saying that his reference to some kind of sanctified condition for the person who is lost means that we can have the full experience of salvation in Christ and be lost or lose it. There are two passages, Hebrews 10:14 and Hebrews 3:14. Here’s Hebrews 10:14(see what you think): “For by a single offering” — that’...
My conclusion is that the experience of sanctification referred to in the lost person of Hebrews 10:26 and 10:29is a measure of God-influenced moral renovation in a person that has been absorbed by being part of the church, professing some kind of faith, being attracted by many things about the Christian faith and Christian people, but never really...
Jun 29, 2019 · Habitual sin is not fundamentally defeated through the power of self-denial, but through the power of a greater desire. Self-denial is of course necessary, but self-denial is only possible — certainly for the long term — when it is fueled by a desire for a greater joy than what we deny (Matthew 16:24–26).
Every sin is an offense to God, and God cannot be in the presence of sin. That is why if you choose to keep committing the same sins without repentance, you will stop feeling His presence in your life. The Holy Spirit will stop speaking to you if you refuse to repent.
Mar 28, 2023 · Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death” (James 1:14-15, ESV). So if every sin is willful sin, it doesn’t make sense to say that “willful sin” causes us to lose our salvation.

May 7, 2021 · What about sins, then, that we commit more than once — indeed, so often that they are threatening to destroy our assurance of being a Christian? Here’s the way I would put it: there are two kinds of confession, and there are two kinds of sin, so test yourself now as to which you are doing.
