a good saying

i don't remember if i read this in one of steve farrar's books, or if i heard him speak it. all i know is this, i remember it. this is how it goes:

sin will take you further than you wanted to go,
sin will keep you longer than you want to stay,
and sin will cost you more than you want to pay.

this comment/quote by steve came to mind when i read a comment on a web site that i frequent. maybe you have read or commented on it; http://www.ibelieve.com/. one of the members of that forum made a statement that she was no longer a sinner now that she has been saved. i disagree with her. i think she is misunderstanding what saved means. what do you think?

i can not use a large enough font or size of font to say how glad i am that i have been saved by the grace of God, and that grace is given to me by the sacrifice of my Savior, Jesus, the Messiah!

To say that we are still sinners recognizes the reality of our continual struggle. To say that we no longer sin is a lie, according to Apostle John.
