“My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Righteous.” 1 John 2:1
Years ago when our Father began to first teach me about our freedom from sin, He took me to this verse of scripture. And do you know what He had jump off the page at me; the one little Word, “if!” Our Father said if any man sin, not when every man sins. My whole life I had heard when, not if, and that was about as exciting for me as anything else that God had ever shown me in His Word. Sin is not a given for the saved, our Father has provided a way, our Righteous Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Way, the Light, and the Truth. Our Father has given us His very self to insure that it is if we sin, not when we sin.
And praise God if it happens, we absolutely have an Advocate working on our behalf every second of every day, right there in the Throne Room with God, One with God, completely and totally defending us! Jesus is always and completely defending us. His Blood is ever cleansing us even if, isn’t that so great, if we sin, not when we sin! We don’t have to defend ourselves from sin, because sin no longer has any power to separate us from the love of God. Sin no longer kills us as it did Adam. We have passed from death unto life; Jesus now is our Advocate, our Defender, our Justifier, and our full and complete eternal Reconciliation. The Holy Ghost has sealed us with Himself and He will keep us until the Day of Jesus’ return, Ephesians 4:30! I hope you see this. God’s revelation on if, not when, will change your whole life. Thank God we have Jesus Who will Author and Finish our faith of if, not when. And praise God we have been given the Anointed mind of Christ to believe it, just as Jesus believes it. We have all of the power and knowledge of Jesus to know that we are dead to sin and to know that our relationship to it has been broken. We now know the Truth that our body that could do sin has been destroyed and that because of the power of Christ we are no longer capable of being effected by sin, Romans 6:6.
Even if we aren’t at this point of mature knowledge of who we are in Christ, we still have unbroken fellowship with God through the power of our Advocate Jesus Christ! This is vitally important; there is now therefore no condemnation for us who are in Christ Jesus, Romans 8:1! We are so blessed today because our Father is flooding us with the fullness of His Truth. We have Jesus Who is giving us the faith to do so and the Truth will set us free! We have been justified, glorified, and conformed to God’s Divine Nature, and there is no sin in the Divine Nature of God! Sin no longer has dominion over us, its power, pleasure, presence, and penalty have been done away for us through Jesus Christ. Jesus made a shew of sin openly at the Cross; triumphing over it and His Light eternally keeps the darkness from us, Colossians 2:14! This is who we are in Christ and this is the Incorruptible Seed that we have been born of!
“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 1:23 We are now alive and one with Christ and we have passed from death unto life and we now live unto God, just as Jesus lives unto God!
