It never ceases to amaze me - the mental contortions CHINOs (CHristians In Name Only) will put themselves through to justify their addiction to sin. Wouldn't it be much easier, and better for one's own mental well-being, to simply take their faith more seriously? It must be a trainwreck in their minds, trying to reconcile being a sinner with being a Christian. With the Holy Spirit dwelling within me, my mind simply cannot begin to process what it must be like to sin. It's one of the perks of being a new creature in Christ. I can't even relate to the wretched, sinful sinner that I used to be before having my sins washed away in the Blood of the Lamb.
II Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
II Thessalonians 1:7-9
And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power
The man who is being progressively sanctified will inescapably sanctify his home, school, politics, economics, science, and all things else by understanding and interpreting all things in terms of the Word of God and by bringing all things under the Dominion of Christ the King. -R.J. Rushdoony
