Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding

Richie Thetford Backsliding A warning 1 Corinthians 10:12 Describes unfaithful descent Jeremiah 3:6, 8, Angers God Isaiah 57:17 God’s pleading and forgiveness Jeremiah 3:12-13, Isaiah 66:1-2

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding Israel did not return to God by “sliding back” into fellowship Psalms 51:3-4, 7-13 “In-sliding”“In-sliding” describes how some, who fell away from God, try to return to fellowship with Him. Some brethren allow it to happen Some may “assume” he has repented

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding In-slider does not confess his sins James 5:16 1 John 1:9 But is still accepted back into fellowship “Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:1-2

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding In-sliding fails to Scripturally address the presence of sin No passage endorses “in-sliding” Luke 13:5 Acts 8:22-24 Fruit of repentance borne after repentance 2 Corinthians 7:10-11 In-sliding is not repentance on the part of the sinner

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding In-sliding knowingly accepts a sinner into fellowship Warnings against this 2 John 9-11 Emphasizes peace – when not established Ephesians 5:11 False plea of “peace” Jeremiah 6:14-15

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding Forsaking the assembly Often “in-slide” back into the assembly Violation of scripture Hebrews 10:24-25 Should exhort them to repent If they object – more work to do: James 5:19-20 Can’t leave the message that they did not really sin

Richie Thetford The Sin of In-sliding Endorsing preachers who teach error Passing of time doesn’t equal repentance When one does not reject error it equals toleration Compromise with error requires full repentance Must warn against those with “itching ears” 2 Timothy 4:2-5

Richie Thetford Conclusion Cannot “in-slide” into fellowship Sin separates us from God 1 John 9 Acts 8:22 Where there has been backsliding there MUST now be repentance God does not approve of “in-sliding” All backsliding requires repentance
