       When a person becomes a Christian then, at the moment he or she accepts what Jesus has accomplished for them by his death and resurrection, he or she what? Well, the person accepts Jesus as Savior. But the person also accepts him as Lord. Well, the person accepts Jesus as Savior. But the person also accepts him as Lord. What does that mean? It means that the person has decided to agree with God’s law. It means that those things the person used to question, or say weren’t sin, those things he or she is now saying, “Yes, I agree with God. That is sin and this is sin.” There has to be an identification of sin, to some level, to some degree, in order for a person to come into personal relationship with God. It is like the verse in Amos, which says, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3, KJV). Certainly there are things that the person doesn’t come to understand as sin right away at the moment he or she becomes saved.
