Psalm 38:18

http://www.dailybiblestudy.org

Beginning January 1, 2016,
current studies will be posted on the
Daily Bible Study Blog

 

18 For I will declare [nagad] mine iniquity [`avon]; I will be sorry [da'ag] for my sin [chatta'ah].   KJV-Interlinear

 

18 I confess my iniquity; I am sorry for my sin.  ESV







The word for sorry, da-ag, does not refer to feeling bad about one sins, but carries the connotation of acknowledgment and accepting responsibility for what you have done.

Confession of sins, is taught in the fourth and fifth sacrifices, which are spelled out in Leviticus chapters four and five respectively, and further described in 1 John 1:9.

When a person has sinned, if they are a believer in Christ, then they place themselves outside of a functioning relationship with God. They are still saved, but their relationship is off-line, so to speak.

One of the fundamental principles of Christianity, is that a functional relationship with God, only occurs while a person is in fellowship.

Confession restores your fellowship, so that your relationship functions as it should.

An unbeliever, has no relationship with God, and therefore, confession has no effect.

Once a person is saved, by believing in Christ, then the issue becomes whether or not they will live their life while residing in fellowship, or out of fellowship.

Sin and confession, are the key elements that determine whether you are in fellowship or out of fellowship.

That is, when you commit a sin, you are immediately out of fellowship. When you confess your sins, then you are immediately restored back into fellowship.

Because most people do not follow the confession principle on a daily basis, they will live the bulk of their life out of fellowship, and therefore do not have a functional spiritual life.

All spiritual activity, functions only when you are in fellowship.

And as stated within this verse, confession is mandatory, and your attitude that accompanies confession, is your acknowledgment and acceptance of the things that you have thought, or said, or done.





These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever.

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment. No one else can study for you. You have to do that yourself.
