Still no answer then to my question can you sin and still be saved.
Here's 2 more questions.
1. What is the purpose and need for repentance?
2. What is the purpose of the sacrament?
Mesenja,
Let us answer your questions first from Mormon Scripture
1. Can you sin and still be saved? Mormon Scripture says
No! (D&C 82:7; D&C 88:22; Alma 11:37)
2. What is the purpose and need for repentance? Mormon Doctrine defines it as the forsaking of all sin, Mormon Scripture is Moroni 10:32
3. What is the purpose of the sacrament? Mormon Doctrine defines it as reaffirming the covenant made at baptism No Mormon Scripture
Now let me answer this from a Biblical position
1. Can you sin and still be saved? A Born again believer (John 3) has been saved by grace and not works (Ephesians 2:8-9) by the sacrificial death and blood of Jesus Christ (Romans 5:8; 1 John 1:7) and when I sin I need to acknowledge it repent of it so that my personal relationship, fellowship, and walk with Jesus is not hindered (John 13:5-10; 1 John 1:9) my eternal salvation cannot be lost because it is based upon Jesus' works not my works (Romans 11:6; John 10:28-29).
2. What is the purpose and need for repentance? Repentance is acknowledging that you are lost in sin, turn from that sin to Jesus for forgiveness and trust Him for eternal life (Luke 24:47; John 5:24).
3. What is the purpose of communion? Most Biblical Christians do not refer to communion as sacrament, the purpose of communion is to worship the Lord Jesus and praise Him and the Father for the sacrificial gift of His death on the Cross, that He died in my place and that His body
was broken and His blood was shed so that I might believe and be saved by faith based upon His work on the Cross.
1 Corinthians 1:18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me." In the same way
He took the cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink
it, in remembrance of Me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.
Mesenja, you can clearly see the difference is night and day, Mormonism is darkness with no hope and Biblical faith in Jesus is the light!
