"If his sons forsake My law And do not walk in My judgments, If they break My statutes And do not keep My commandments, Then I will punish their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes.
Yes, the blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed (forgiven) me from all sinfulness. But that does me that I won't have to suffer the consequences of my stupidities. For example, I can buy a new car, far beyond my needs or financial condition because I covet it. Plain and simple, covetousness! Do I pay any attention to that small voice in the background reminding me that “Thou shalt not covet”?
Do I suffer some financial difficulties as a consequence? Have I learned my lesson? Probably not.
