Forget the cleansing of your sins of old.\" Do you feel you can not get closer to Jesus? Do not all your prayers matter? Is there no blessing or fruit in your spiritual life? Here is the reason: on the way to meet Jesus you were mired in sins from which you were not cleansed. The precious blood of the Lamb also purifies those sins that you have carried for many years,<br> if you confess them in true repentance. Then,<br> having been cleansed from the sins of the past,<br> you do not approach the Lord only chronologically,<br> but inwardly you will come more and more to Him. In your heart will long for Him,<br> and you will cry,<br> \"Come,<br> Lord Jesus\"!\n\nThe cleansing of sins means being free to go on; sanctification is the very advancement in the life of faith. By the cleansing of your sins you once recognized Jesus and you can see the target you must attain. By sanctification,<br> you follow Jesus. The man cleansed of sins becomes willing to say: my life is at Jesus' disposal! And when this person penetrates into the mystery of sanctification,<br> he can testify: \"... for me to live is Christ.\"",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"religion\",<br>\"christian-trail\",<br>\"christianity\",<br>\"spirituality\",<br>\"family\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmUwGZqM47omMgXgtX4xj3xCixRZyHpMq7bC69KQrTb6jJ\/29.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
