Disciple - Remedy



Even though we're saved, we still fight the temptations of our sins. Christians aren't perfect, and we still make choices that displease God. Even though we've been cured of the disease (and born into a new Heavenly family), we still have to work out the symptoms that remain.

How can sin pollute our lives after we're saved? We will never lose the salvation that Christ gave us, but we can lose our testimony by not acting any differently than the world, in a way that is 'unchristian'. It's easy to lapse back into sin one step at a time. Thankfully, Jesus is our Remedy both for the initial salvation and for forgiveness of all our sins after that. No matter what it is we've done wrong, we're never so far away that He can't bring us back if we ask. He'll cleanse us from our unrighteousness, and He will never let us out of His hand. Where He stops (salvation) is where He'll pick right back up (forgiveness).
