Forgiveness of sin! That is what everyone who receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior is guaranteed! Just look at what this verse says:
“In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” Ephesians 1:7 (KJV)
BUT, does that mean we stop sinning? No! It means that we are redeemed from the condemnation of that sin. However, if we don’t openly repent when we do sin, we open up the door to the devil and his condemning voice. Much of the trouble we face in our daily lives gets blamed on the devil, but how much is really our own fault because we “didn’t tell all of the facts and skewed the truth”, much like Ananias and Saphira! If things aren’t going right in your life – check if you opened the door by openly sinning, repent, and receive again the fullness of the forgiveness Jesus redeemed you from!
