The wiping away of tears and the healing of the nations is for those born in flesh and blood during the 1000 yrs of natural birth!  TR

We all sin.  Because the Holy Spirit lives within us, we have the power through Him not to sin, but we sin anyway because we want to often without thinking.  When we do stop and think, we stop not out of fear of God but rather out of love for God.   We then ask the Holy Spirit to guide us and help us to resist that sin.  We love Jesus and do not want to grieve him.

Whether a person asks our forgiveness or not we are called to forgive for our own sakes.  On the cross, Jesus cried out to God, Father forgive them for they know not what they do.  He forgave before He was asked to forgive.  If Jesus can forgive those who beat, tortured, and killed Him, we can forgive others’ petty transgressions.  To not do so opens us up to bitterness and loss.

Sounds to me like the camp cook wasn’t saved. If she were she would have heeded the Holy Spirit to repentance.

Mat 7:21  "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

Mat 7:22  Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?'

Mat 7:23  And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'

Preach it Sis!  Again, what does "conceived in sin"  refer to???  Is it because we all are automatically born with "rebellion" in our hearts?  Is it because we are not God that He considers us sinful???   Did not the Lord tolerate the sins and rebellion of Satan in heaven???  For what was birthed in his heart did not occur in a moments time, nor actively conspiring to advocate the rebellion of 1/3 of the angels!  Will the millennial saint sin, no doubt that why services will continue in the holy temple!  Indeed sin introduced by Adam and Eve visits us all but isn't that a part of being "human"!  IE: not being God!  TR
