Shall We Continue in Sin?: A Vital Question for Believers Answered in the Word of God; The Substance of Addresses Delivered in Great Britain and Ireland in 1896 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Shall We Continue in Sin?: A Vital Question for Believers Answered in the Word of God; The Substance of Addresses Delivered in Great Britain and Ireland in 1896We cannot mistake the subject here treated. The sixth chapter opens with the plain question: S/zall we continue in sin? A question substantially repeated in verse 15, Shall we sin? And in chapter vii. 7, Is the Law Sin? In all three cases the answer is a short, energetic, and most emphatic God forbid I The very thought is to be put away as a fatal snare to the soul, as when Christ said to Satan, Get thee hence I Nothing could more clearly teach that continuance in sinning is to be regarded by every true child of God as both needless and wrong. The doctrine of sinlessness is not here taught, but of not continuing in sin. Being without sin, and not going on in sin, are two quite different things.* Comp. 1 John i. 8 - 11. 1. Also Dr. Handley Moule, in a letter quoted in the Homiletic Review. September, 1896. P. 242.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
