In Christ? Are you sure?
A few points to verify!
- Do God’s commands and sin not! 1Jn.1:1-6 These two are always together!
- My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not.
And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: 1Jn.2:1
- He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. 1Jn.2:2
- We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. 1Jn.2:3
- The man who says: I know him, but do not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 1Jn.2:4
- But if anyone obeys his word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him. 1Jn.2:5
- Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. 1Jn.2:6
- Whosoever abides in him sin not. 1Jn.3:6-10
- Whosoever abides in him sin not: whosoever sin has not seen him, neither known him. 1Jn.3:6
- Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.1Jn.3:7
- He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sin from the beginning.
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1Jn.3:8
- Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remain in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1Jn.3:9
- In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,
neither he that love not his brother. 1Jn.3:10
- Sin not and able to keep himself! 1Jn.5:16-18
- If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death.
There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. 1Jn.5:16
- All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. 1Jn.5:17
- We know that whosoever is born of God sin not; but he that is begotten of God keep himself,
and that wicked one touch him not. 1Jn.5:18
- Able to control his own body not to commit fornication! 1Thes.4:1-8
- Finally, brothers, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living.
Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more. 1Thes.4:1
- For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. .1Thes 4:2
- It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid fornication. .1Thes 4:3
- That each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the heathen,
who do not know God; 1Thes.4:4-5
- And that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him.
The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you. 1Thes 4:6
- For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. .1Thes 4:7
- Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit. 1Thes.4:8
- No love money! No adultery! Heb.13:4-6
- Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
- Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have,
because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you. Heb.13:5
- So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? Heb.13:6
- No suicide! 1Cor.3:16-17
- Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? 1Cor.3:16
- If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple. 1Cor.13:17
- Not dirty minded! Eph.4:29
- Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths,
but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
- Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth,
but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear.ASV
