"Do you sin, as a Christian?"
If a Christian sins, it
is against his will. One who is regenerate falls rather
than dives into sin; he resists rather than embraces
it. Any dead fish can float downstream. It takes a live
one to swim against the flow. Christians still experience
temptations and can sometimes fall into sin, but they
are no longer slaves to sin (Romans 6:6). They have
God’s Holy Spirit within them to help them say
no to temptation, and to convict their conscience of
wrongdoing when they do sin.
