Hi Juli,
Thank you very much for your post.

My name is Malala or Leontine. I don't speak English very well but I understand little bit, sorry about that. I have a question please: If someone responds God's calling, her or his sins (past, present, future) are forgiven?

Thank you for your post
In Christ,
Malala

Blessing to you Malala,

Yes, that is correct, when we accept God's gift of forgiveness through Jesus Christ he does not hold our sins against us and we are forgiven of everything, past, present and future. It really is an amazing truth! Below are links to a few articles I have written on this very subject. I hope this helps you understand all that we have been given through Jesus Christ.

Hey Juli,

This is Dustin and I just wanted to thank you once again for the articles and the video postings. I know you're busy but there is something I would like to ask you. For several months I've been understanding the difference between our spirit, soul and body. I've read Andrew Wommack's book Spirit, Soul and Body a couple of times and several other teachings on that subject and have really benefited from these truths. From what I've learned I understand that we are a spirit, we have a soul, and live in a body. I have read that when God sees us from the moment we are born again, He sees us as clothe in His own righteousness, covered in the Blood of Jesus, and His work perfected in our lives. I totally agree with these truths. I understand that our spirits are the part of us that became righteous, holy, perfect, blameless, and the list goes on. I understand that are souls are in the process of being transformed as we renew our minds and experience revelation, and our bodies will one day in the future be glorified. I understand that God sees us righteous even when we fail because we are justified apart from our works and performance.

But something that started bothering me yesterday was about how God sees our soul. Some of the thoughts I was having was that God only sees our spirits as righteous but our souls are a different story. Does God see our whole being, spirit, soul and body as righteous or just our spirits? How does God see the soul of a person when he fails? I know that God does not impute sin to us even when we fail. I believe that are minds are always being renewed for the rest of our life. No matter how mature we grow or how much revelation we have, I believe that as long as we are on this earth we will always continue to experience some kind of renewing in our souls. So in the midst of the thoughts we have day by day, does God view ours minds as filthy and defiled from some of the things we think, or does He only see the mind of Christ in us. I don't think that when God sees us that he begans to disect us and say that only your spirit is perfectly righteous, but you're presenting you're members as instruments of unrighteousness, so that he sees 1/3 of us righteous but the other 2/3 still dirty. So my final question is, does God see just our spirits righteous but not the rest of us, or does He see His work already perfected in our entire being?

Thanks

Dustin,

Nice to hear from you again. Funny, I just gave that book to a friend of mine last Wednesday... it's a good book and such an important building block for understanding the Word.
