A Question On Sin And Forgiveness

Q

Just a question on sin from some one in my Sunday school class . If we should sin after saved [which is impossible not to] and die before we ask for forgiveness, are we still covered by the blood of Christ?

A

Yes. It’s impossible for a believer to die in a state of unforgiveness because all our sins were forgiven at the cross (Colossians 2:13-14). Periodic confession protects the quality of our earthly relationship with God but is not necessary for maintaining our salvation. It was guaranteed when we first believed (Ephes. 1:13-14).
