Breaking down the language are we? On-going sin?

I think we need to get to a place to live fully Gospel-centered lives, where we speak the Gospel to each other in all situations. Where we open and share one another's burdens... not just when people are deep in the pit, but when people are being pulled to the pit.

Yes. "Fault" here is used in the same way as Galatians 6:1...."If a brother be overtaken in a fault", or, something that an individual struggles with on a frequent basis. Don't argue with me, I own a Strong's Concordance and I once took a class in Greek. Oh wait, I flunked.....but I still know what I'm talking about!!!

I forgot my smiley face... i wasn't arguing, only razzing.

Hmmm, so if that brother one time sleeps with another man's wife, it's not a "fault" because it's not "on going"? haha

I'll have to check my Strong's Concordance and get back to you on that!

Oh this speaks to my heart. There are so many times I wish I could have just dragged someone from the edge of the pit, but they didn't know, nor did I the price that would be paid. And they are so deep in the pit now, My heart is hurting, because they once had the glory of God shine from them. This situation doesn't involve pornography, but it does involve the same kind of power that we let other things take over us.
