until he has had enough . and with ananias and sapphire that rope was short .. because he will not tolerate people trampling christ under foot after all he endured for us .
it makes no difference how many times he calls us to repentance, the call does not save us .. the obedience to the call to repent brings us to salvation .
we are saved from a CERTAIN damnation..only a fool would trifle with it .continued sin makes fools of us .
There is a Joy in being free that surpasses all earthly joy. the Joy of laying down each night and waking each morning with a clear conscience , and it is maintained by keeping ones eyes on jesus listening to him and doing what he is telling you to do ... you simply cant sin while you are acting in obedience .
Do you see the Law and Gospel of some of the things you brought up? The Law points us to what we're doing wrong. It tells us we're going down so to speak. It's the Gospel that shows us God's love, mercy and forgiveness.
