Greetings, may the peace of God our Father rest upon you. I, Terry Minor Jr, rapper and minister of Jesus Christ by the will of God write this letter to every human who will have eyes to see, ears to hear and an open heart to receive the WORD of God.
When we repent and get saved, our sins are 100% eliminated from God’s consciousness. So there’s no reason why we should live a sin-conscious life. If God forgot about it then so should we. Religion says we are sinners who are saved by grace, but that is false. We are no longer sinners after we get saved.
2 Corinthians 5:17 says Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature: OLD things are PASSED AWAY; behold, all things are become NEW.
In other words, what once WAS.......no longer IS. We can’t be both. We are either sinners or saved. Yet being saved does not make us exempt from temptation. And being tempted does not make you a “sinner” or a bad person.......only acting on the temptation or not “bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ” is what causes one to “walk in sin.” Tapping in to the spiritual nature of the “new creature” that we are carries the POWER we need to resist temptation when it comes.
How? Because sin no longer has dominion over us. Instead, we have dominion and victory over it. Romans 6:6 NLT says......”We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin.”
Let’s meditate on that line again, “we are no longer slaves to sin.” If we are no longer slaves to sin then we are no longer sinners. Such as when the Israelites were delivered from slavery, they were no longer slaves. One can not be a slave to what they have been delivered from. You may sin or make a mistake, but that doesn’t make you a sinner. However, simply put, we ARE saved people who resist temptation and sin by the power of God at work within us, living a JOYFUL, victorious life by having FAITH in God with no sin consciousness.
As it says in Philippians 2:13 “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of HIS good pleasure.” God is working in us, giving us the strength and power that we need from Him and His WORD to be able to do what is pleasing and honorable to Him.
The devil is the father of lies (John 8:44)
God is the bearer of GOOD news/things. (James 1:17)
One of them would want to throw in your face the phrase “you’re a sinner.” And it is obvious that would not come from God—who is the one who forgets our sins!
Jeremiah 31:34 KJV says “.....I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember there sin no more.”
Isaiah 43:25 NKJV says “I, even I, am He that blots out your transgressions for My own sake, and I will not remember your sins.”
With that said, here is the good news.
When you repented for your sins, asked God for forgiveness and received Jesus into your heart as your Lord and savior, you’re then SAVED and now no longer a sinner. You are FREE!
In John 8:32 & 36 Jesus says.....
32: “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
36: “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.”
That’s it. You’re saved. You’re free. No longer a sinner.
In Romans 10:9-11 NKJV it says....
9 “that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
PRAYER OF SALVATION:
“Dear God, I believe you sent Jesus to die for me. I believe that you rose him from the dead so that I could be saved. Jesus, I ask you now, come into my heart, save me. Be my Lord and savior forever. Jesus, take my life, and do something wonderful with it. In Jesus name I pray, amen.”
Remember, I am praying for you, my partners, everyday!
ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE IF A PERSON BELIEVES!
