hi pastor john,
Ii have question, i understand that when i was washed and my sins were forgiven by the blood/hollyghost of god, and i have to walk up rightly. why do christians claim that there past,present,and future sin are forgiven, before they commit them. im a bit confused on this matter, i know we have jesus as our high priest- something in my spirit just cant except what they claim.
thanks,
R S

Hi Brother Rob!
Christians teach that nonsense because they expect never to stop sinning. You see, if Jesus has already paid for the sins they are still committing, then they can have peace and strong confidence as they continue following after the flesh and its lusts. And if Jesus has already paid for their future sins, they can live in faith that it is done, and then they will never again be bothered with time-consuming things like conviction and repentance. And then they can produce sermons and articles that proclaim that God is good because He knows that we will always sin no matter what Jesus did to deliver us from it, and so our loving heavenly Father took care of it all by His Son’s sacrifice.
So, enjoy sin while you can, and praise the Lord!??!?
