1 Corinthians 6
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
We as daughters and sons of God "born again" are not under the law but under Grace because of Jesus Christ.
Romans 3:24
and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
That's why we suppose to have the fear of the Lord means that God is to be honored and respected by us.
Psalm 119:34
Give me understanding, and I will keep your law and obey it with all my heart.
Living under SIN is to do and act according to this world desires. To put aside the old man and live according to the word of God is to do as He said and be able to grow more in a Christ like person.
1 Peter 2:11
Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul.
We have the Armor of God which we have to put and guard our hearts and minds. The blood of the Lamb is the one that cleans us and cover us from the dangers and the only thing we need to discern and be able to indentify what it is from God and what it's not.
Ephesians 6:11
Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
It is important to refresh our minds and thoughts every day and speak the word of God in hard situations especially in prayer.
Romans 12:2
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
The Holy Spirit will speak to your soul and will let you know when to flee from difficult situations which involve Sin.
Deuteronomy 28:7
The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
Want to know how to be born again? It is to repent from your past sins, to confess that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God. That was crucified and buried for your sins and that He arose the third day and it's at the right hand of the Father. To welcome Jesus into your heart and let Him changes you forever.
John 3:5-8
Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.' The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."
Born again is to be baptized in the name of the Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
