- We are purged from our sins through baptism into Christ and developing a firm faith in his work during our present life, rather than through some period of suffering after death. We are told to "purge out therefore the old leaven" of sin in our lives (1 Cor. 5:7); to purge ourselves from the works of sin (2 Tim. 2:21; Heb. 9:14).
Tunatakaswa dhambi zetu kwa njia ya Ubatizo katika Kristo na kuendelea katika imani thabiti kwa kufanya matendo yake wakati wa maisha yetu ya sasa, sio kupitia kipindi kingine kuteswa baada ya kufa. tunaambiwa'Jisafisheni, mkatoe ile chachu ya kale’ ya dhambi katika maisha yetu (1 Kor. 5:7); tujitakase toka katika matendo yetu ya dhambi (2 Tim. 2:21; Ebra. 9:14).
