Our Scripture reading today is 1 John 1:8-10.
Verse 8, "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."
This book of the Bible was written to the believer. We are assured of our salvation over
and over again. The word, know, is found repeatedly in 1 John. God wants us to know
we are saved. Hallelujah!
It is also clearly mentioned that we are still capable of and we do sin after
we are born again. We are equipped with the Spirit of God, who is more than ready to
help us overcome temptation. Every child of God by the power of the Spirit can say no
to temptation. Say "yes" to the Spirit and "no" to the flesh.
