Overcoming The Dominion of Sin
Even when we have become a Christian, believed in Jesus to the point of repenting (changing our minds) of our sins, confessing Jesus as the Son of God and are baptized (immersed in water) in the name of Jesus to be saved, we still struggle with sin in our lives. Although our relationship with God has changed, we have been freed from sin by Jesus, we still have much old thinking, desires and deeds to overcome and be replaced with righteous behavior. Why is this the case? And, how can we continue to remain free of sin with the help of God through Jesus? Without His help, sin will continue to dominate our thinking and action. But with His help, we can be forgiven of our sins as often as needed, continue to grow in His grace and knowledge, becoming more like Jesus each day by His Word.
