Question
Hi thanks for your time. I love God and I pray everyday, and I go out and spread his word to people in other towns and I study my bible everyday. But once a week or so I willfully sin or give in to temptation. I pray and confess these sins and I will do good for 4 or 5 days and feel so holy then I will mess us and give in to sin. choose sin over god. sometimes I don't give in but sometimes I do. Is this willfull sin and am I practicing lawlessness?

Answer
Josh: Do you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ? Have you asked Him to come into your life? If no, then do so. If yes, then ask forgiveness and stop the "willful" part. The bible says he that knows to do so, that is sin. So, seek God. The bible says we have an advocate with the Father, which is Jesus and he is able to forgive us of our sins. Seek Him and seek his forgivness and when the temptation comes and it will come, then turn it over to Christ.
I pray this helps
Blessings
Pastor Ron
