“Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.” (Hebrews 10:19-25 NASB1995)
Jesus Christ was and is the only begotten Son of God. But he isn’t only the Son of God, but he was and he is God, the second person of our triune God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – who is our creator God, the God who made us and formed us in our mother’s wombs. He was with God in the beginning, and while he lived on the earth he was both fully God and fully human (God incarnate), but he was not born with a sin nature as we are, because he was conceived of the Holy Spirit and not of man. And he never once ever sinned.
Now God the Father sent Jesus Christ to the earth, and he had him be born as a human baby to a woman who was a virgin, conceived of the Holy Spirit, with the ultimate purpose in mind that he would become our sacrificial lamb to die on that cross to put our sins to death with him so that we would, by faith in him, die with him to sin and live for him and for his righteousness. For he put our sins to death with him on that cross so that we will now die to our sins and walk in obedience to his commands, by God-gifted faith in him.
So, by God-gifted and God-persuaded faith in the Lord Jesus we are crucified with Christ in death to sin, and raised with Christ to walk in newness of life in him, no longer to live as slaves to sin but now as slaves to God and to his righteousness. Therefore, we no longer are to let sin have mastery over us to make us obey its desires. For if sin is what we obey, it leads to death. But if obedience to God is what we obey, it results in eternal life with God. So we need to believe this and no longer obey sin (see Romans 6:1-23).
For Jesus Christ taught that to come to him we must deny self, take up our cross daily (die daily to sin), and follow (obey) him. For if we hold on to living in sin and for self, we will lose our lives for eternity. But if we deny self, die daily to sin, by the Spirit, and we walk in obedience to our Lord and to his commands, in his power, then we have eternal life with God. For not everyone who calls him “Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one DOING (obeying) the will of God (see Luke 9:23-26; Matthew 7:21-23).
And we are to be encouraging one another with these words. And this, in truth, is to be the purpose of our gatherings, not to sit as spectators enjoying a “worship service,” but as participants with one another, exhorting and encouraging one another so that none of us are hardened by sin’s deceitfulness, and speaking the truth of God’s word to one another so that we won’t be led astray by people who, in their deceitful scheming, are teaching false gospels meant to appease human flesh and the ungodly.
“For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries. Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay.’ And again, ‘The Lord will judge His people.’ It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” (Hebrews 10:26-31 NASB1995)
Therefore, because in Jesus’ death on that cross he put our sins to death with him, so that by faith in him we will now die to our sins and obey him and his commands, sin is no longer to be what we practice. We are no longer to be those who deliberately and habitually sin against the Lord in various ways. We are not to be the hardhearted who do just whatever it is that we want to do, regardless of how what we do impacts other humans. But this type of sinning is running rampant within “the church” in the USA.
So many charlatans and wolves in sheep’s clothing are teaching the people that all they have to do is make a profession of faith in Jesus, and now all their sins are forgiven, and heaven is secured for them when they die, but regardless of how they live. But Jesus and his New Testament apostles taught that, by faith in Jesus, we die with him to sin so that we can now walk (in conduct, in practice) in obedience to his commands. But if sin, and not obedience, is what we practice, we will not inherit eternal life with God.
[Matt 7:13-14,21-23; Lu 9:23-26; Jn 10:27-30; Ac 26:18; Rom 2:6-8; Rom 6:1-23; Rom 8:1-14; Rom 12:1-2; 1 Co 6:9-10,19-20; 1 Co 10:1-22; 2 Co 5:10,15,21; Gal 5:16-24; Gal 6:7-8; Eph 2:8-10; Eph 4:17-32; Eph 5:3-6; Col 1:21-23; Col 3:1-17; Tit 2:11-14; Heb 3:1-19; Heb 4:1-13; Heb 10:23-31; Heb 12:1-2; 1 Pet 2:24; 1 Jn 1:5-10; 1 Jn 2:3-6,15-17; 1 Jn 3:4-10]

Bombs are bursting. Night is falling.
Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.
Trust Him with your life today.
Make Him your Lord and your Savior.
Turn from your sin. Follow Jesus.
He will forgive you of your sin;
Cleanse your heart, made new within.
Men betraying: Our trust fraying.
On our knees to God we’re praying,
Seeking God to give us answers
That are only found in Him.
God is sovereign over all things.
Nothing from His mind escaping.
He has all things under His command,
And will work all for good.
Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.
Men deceiving: We’re believing
In our Lord, and interceding
For our nation and its people
To obey their God today.
He is our hope for our future.
For our wounds He offers suture.
He is all we need for this life.
Trust Him with your life today.
