: : :The soul thus saved would rather sink into the flames of hell : than steal into heaven and skulk there under the shadow of an imputed : righteousness. No soul is saved that would not prefer hell to sin. : Jesus did not die to save us from punishment ; he was called Jesus : because he should save his people from their sins." : ~I remember a time when I thought I had lost my salvation, about 3 or 4 months after I had gotten : it, because I thought I had blasphemed the Holy Spirit, according to Mark 3:28-29. Although, I never actually said a word, I was tormented by thoughts day and night that "did" this. At one point I : resigned to the fact that I was lost and damned but told Jesus that I want a relationship with Him : and not go back to sin while here, other for the sin I had already committed, for which : I believed I would be in hell when I died anyway, in a way it brought some peace in that I would be : living for Jesus, not for salvation, since I had lost anyway forever. ` : :Anyway, this is not to put me in some great light, since about 3 years after my salvation I "backslid" and became very confused, coming to not understanding the church (as I had experienced it personally 'till that time) and where I had come to after all, after all that, I questioned: was all that crap real after all? and feeling really hurt. I guess in some ways it wasn't all real, no matter how sure I was at one time. But I honestly I say coming to Crossover back in the day really helped me out, gave me a new perspective and put things in a new light, about the "protestant" church and what I had believed in, it helped me to get over a hang up I had, to see that it wasn't all or nothing, that I could believe again, go back to God, but without trying to recreate the same evangelistic experience; they were and are wrong in many points, I couldn't and should not back to them. : Well, I don't know, enough of that part, I'm kinda in a weird mood, but you know, here is the thing, : those that say "I do not sin", well yeah, if you walk the spirit you will not be a servant to sin. Yeah, in KJ it says in John 8:34 whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. It also says in : 1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. : Well, I think there's a lot more to that but It's late and I'm out for now. :
