TO BE TRULY FORGIVEN IS TO GO AND SIN NO MORE!
When we tell believers, to live out what they confess, some would readily react, saying that we are calling the 'righteous' to RELIGIOUS practices.
But then, the TRUTH remains, that DIVINE protection and preservation in Christ, ONLY avails those believers who PRACTICE what they CONFESS.
And do not even claim that you have 'faith', when you are living in DISOBEDIENCE to the commandments of God. God's kind of faith ONLY works by His love, and the love of God is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God.
Therefore, to walk in God's love is to walk in His PRACTICAL righteousness and holiness.
There are no two ways about it - whosoever calls himself or herself a Christian; but does not walk in PRACTICAL reality of that claim, day by day - spirit , soul and body, that person will remain SUSCEPTIBLE to whatsoever EVIL that NECESSARILY comes upon the world from time to time.
Mark my words: PRAYING and shouting fire, fire, will not avail whosoever calls himself a believer; but who continues in sin.
You may even chant FORGIVEN, FORGIVEN, till you loose your voice; but, IF you REFUSE to live in God's PRACTICAL holiness and righteousness, day by day, you will live even as unbelievers do, HOPELESSLY subject to all manners of epidemics and pandemics, whatever those words mean!
And, at the end, the same JESUS, Whom you claimed saved you, will lovingly tell you, 'I know you not, depart from Me you worker of iniquity'.
To be TRULY FORGIVEN is to go and sin NO MORE!.
