To put it as simply as I can, if you are saved from death and sin, by the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ, then you are saved from death and sin. Look at sin in this way, everyone has the ability to lie and steal. But just because you have the ability to lie and steal, that does not mean that you are a liar and a thief. In the same way everyone has the ability to sin, but just having this ability does not make you a sinner. This works in the same way as righteousness. Righteousness can only come from God.

To put it as simply as I can, if you are saved from death and sin, by the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ, then you are saved from death and sin. Look at sin in this way, everyone has the ability to lie and steal. But just because you have the ability to lie and steal, that does not mean that you are a liar and a thief. In the same way everyone has the ability to sin, but just having this ability does not make you a sinner. This works in the same way as righteousness. Righteousness can only come from God.

Scripture plainly tells us that Jesus was tempted by sin, but because he used all of the gifts of His Father to their full potential, including Grace, or God's influence on His heart, He was able to stop sin at temptation. Therefore Jesus never sinned. You have access to that same God-given ability in your life. You have had access to that ability, since the moment you were saved. But because of the lack of understanding of the gift of grace, we, as God's children do not utilize the gift of grace when confronted with temptation. If we would only recognize and use this wonderful gift, sin would no longer be an issue in our lives. Religion has so misconstrued the meaning of God's gifts. We are taught that we should be able to fight the good fight on our own. As I have said many times in this book, you alone have nothing to do with your salvation and happiness, other than to believe and accept the gifts of your loving Father, and let them do the work in your life. The main problem in utilizing the gifts that God has provided for every one of His children is not that they refuse to use the gifts; it is that they refuse to believe that God's gifts
