Obviously, there are various beliefs represented by residents and staff at a private Senior Citizen home, so I doubt that many of them have ever heard the glorious truth of full salvation from all sin in this present evil world.
Some of these folks have no Christian background. How sad that they did not hear about God's forgiveness and deliverance when they were younger. Think of all the heartache they could have avoided.
Some of them have never heard that God saves Christians from the struggle of Romans 7, therefore they spent the major part of their life, either in a backslidden condition or a carnal condition.
I shared quickly, but thoroughly, that the Christian experience includes being
Born Again, and
Death of the Old Man, as well as
Death to the World and
the World Being Dead to Them.
This leads to walking in victory and purity.
I showed them the Scriptural fact that God saves us from the Penalty, the Power and the Pollution of Sin.
I realize some might not have heard or received the message last night, but there were several who responded very positively, during and after the service. I did not present it as one theological perspective against another. I presented it as it is, the clear revelation of God. Hopefully, some of them will grasp the greatness of God's glorious grace, and enter into God's second rest before they go to be with the Lord.
