If Jesus Took Away All Our Sins?

1/15/2024

Question: If Jesus took away all our sins, then what do we do with these scriptures?

1 John 1:8, says, If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. How is this possible if Jesus took away our sins?

Paul said in Ephesians 4:26, Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

And again, in James 4:17, it says, Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

I am a little confused. Did Jesus really take away our sins, or only for some people?

Paul states in Hebrews 10:26, For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

How can I willfully sin if Jesus took all my sin away?

Romans 6:12 says, Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

In 1 Corinthians 15:31, Paul says, I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. If there is no sin, then what was Paul dying each day to?

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Maybe we really need to know what this means?

If Jesus came and took all our sin away, how is it possible that you or I can still sin?

If all the oxygen is taken away from our planet, could we still breathe?

2 Timothy 2:3-4, Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

Entangle: to get caught up in something. In this case, the affairs of this life.
Affairs: events or business of a person, place, or thing. In this case, the world we live in and its concerns, such as politics, religion, government and the such. As pilgrims in the countries, we live in, we are only passing through and have no part in these things being citizens of the country we seek.

Revelation 18:1-5, And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

The Lord is reminding us that we must be focused on the work that He has sent us to do. For the harvest is ready and time is short.

The world cannot be changed by carnal means, only by the move of the Holy Ghost.

Don't be like Lot's wife, who on the day of deliverance, was more concerned with the ways of this life than the commandment of God. The same God who came to rescue her. Receiving an immediate reward, God turning her into a pillar of salt because the desire of her heart was on the wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Be a faithful soldier of Jesus Christ. Do not allow the enemy to persuade you to pause your fight to engage in worldly affairs.

Matthew 13:22, He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

John 15:19, If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

John 17:16, They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Colossians 2:8, Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

James 1:27, Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

James 4:4, Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

1 John 2:15, Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
