IS THERE ANYTHING LIKE CONSEQUENCES OF SINS AFTER BEING BORN AGAIN?

IS THERE ANYTHING LIKE CONSEQUENCES OF SINS AFTER BEING BORN AGAIN?


According to the book of Hebrew 8: 12 Kjv says; FOR I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEIR SINS AND THEIT INQUITIES WILL I REMEMBER NO MORE.

Thus, it is clear that God will not hold your past sins committed before salvation against you if you confessed them. 1 John 1: 9


However,  even though the price for our sins committed before salvation has been paid and we were made free from sin, it doesn't mean there are no consequences at all.


The REMISSION of sins is not same as being free of the CONSEQUENCES of sins.


Once we are saved, God forgives our sins and promises to remember it no more. Its like an acquital in court where the judges declares us not guilty- GOD WILL NO LONGER PUNISH US WITH DEATH IN HELL FOR OUR SINS.


But being  right with God doesn't necessarily mean we are being made right with Men. If you committed murder, even if you have become a Christian after and thus in the eyes of the Lord, our sins are forgiven by God, this doesn't mean that you should not serve the punishment in jail for your crime.


Eg. If one had pre marital sex before he was saved, there will be consequences that he will carry with him such as STDs. If this disease not discovered on time can lead to inability to impregnate a woman. BEING BORN AGAIN DIDN'T REMOVE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT SIN OF SEXUAL ACT rather GRACE can locate him through Knowledge on how to get cured.


Galatians 6: 7 says Do not be deceived, God is not mocked whatever a man sows same he will reap...
