The Ongoing Struggle - Thursday get_app
The Baptist Faith & Message continues its statements on God’s purpose of grace, saying,
“Believers may fall into sin through neglect and temptation, whereby they grieve the Spirit, impair their graces and comforts, and bring reproach on the cause of Christ and temporal judgments on themselves; yet they shall be kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.”
