In this moment right now Jesus makes me perfect
It doesn’t take long to get saved by Jesus. And it doesn’t take long for Him to pick you up out of the muddy mire. How long does it take to become perfect before God? “I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

Have you been treating actual “brothers” and sisters like the world does when they catch a sinner? Scripture calls for us to “restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness” – not snub and drub MerWeb: snubbing – harshly criticize or reprimand. What?! Treat them quick and harsh? Get down and slander and gossip about them to others? Put down, slap down? A Christian who, in a moment of failure – falls… is not to be classified as “an immoral” person.
