Sorry, been working on some big projects, and had Spring Break last week. Here's the latest. Sin soap. It'll wash all yer sins away! This brings me to a question: in what ways does the of Christ "wash away" our sins? I mean...the sins are still there, right? And if we make ourselves behave after salvation then is it not our willpower that takes sins away? I know the positional vs. practical righteousness stuff, but I wonder if some people think that the of Jesus is like soap that "warshes all'em sins down the to'let of the flesh!" Sorry, I'm being facetious. But really. To what extent are we clean from sin in this life? Anybody got any great ideas? I've got my own, but I want to hear from y'all.

1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, his faithful and just to forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
Acts 3:19- Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.
Psalm 103:12- as far as east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
If we truly confess, he will forgive us, purify us, wipe out, and remove our sin as far as east is from the west (destroy)it.
I suppose the answer depends on which seminary you went to. How do you feel about:
Pantene Pro-V(nient) Grace
You're not fully clean unless you're Wesley-fully clean!
Arminian Hammer Baking Soda
BeLever2000: For all your sinful parts
Lame, I know. I'll try harder next time.
