Sinning believers are not saved. The wages of sin is death. As long as you sin you are on your way to hell. It doesn't matter whether it is a small lie or a white lie, whatever sin you do, THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH. Jesus came to save us from sin and if you are in sin you are on your way to hell.
If you accept Jesus as your Lord, if you say:”Lord, Help me, save me!” He immediately stretches out His hand and He saves you, HE MAKES YOU FREE FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN. You are free, you are not a captive any more. Now you are free to obey Him. You are free to serve Him, you are free to live righteous, YOU ARE FREE FROM THAT SIN THAT WAS HOLDING YOU CAPTIVE.
But now, you need to walk in obedience to Jesus. YOU must stay away from sin and IF YOU GO BACK TO SIN YOU ARE NOT SAVED! Only those who stay with Jesus and do not go back to sin at all again, only they will be saved in the end. He saves you from the bondage of sin but the final salvation of your soul is if you ENDURE WITH JESUS UNTIL THE END.
Many people think that they are saved, they have been told that they are saved but they are not saved because they are still in sin. YOU MUST STOP SINNING, but Jesus gives you the power to stop sinning and that power comes through your relationship with Him. If you stay focused on Jesus, day and night, every moment, IF YOU KEEP ON PRAYING YOU WILL NOT SIN. If you work your relationship with Jesus then you don't sin, but if you sin you are not in a relationship with Jesus.
As long as your eyes are focused on Jesus you won't sin. It is because people go back to sin, it is because people get distracted by the things of the world, then they take their eyes off Jesus and they fall into sin. You need to keep your eyes on Jesus. You must stay in that relationship with Jesus. That is why you need the Holy Spirit to dwell in you, that PRESENCE of Jesus in you. REPENT, turn away from sin, be baptized in water and ask Him for the Holy Spirit presence, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, who will be with you all the time. But then YOU MUST MAINTAIN THAT RELATIONSHIP! Many people have received the Holy Spirit but they ignore Him. YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON JESUS ALL THE TIME and follow Him all the time or else you will sin and you will end up in hell. The wages of sin is death! He saves you from the power of sin, but then you must walk with Jesus UNTIL THE VERY END and NOT SIN. Be holy, without holiness no man shall see God.
May Jesus bless you.
