“The author’s beef is not with the prayer, but with the idea that Christ can be one’s Savior without being one’s Master.”
Many Christians slip into a life of sin or self-control. The church of Corinth a prime example. In all Paul’s discipline, he never said they were not believers. He exhorted them to walk with Christ.
That any believer anywhere would come to the place spiritually, where she realizes she has never submitted to Christ as Lord of here life, is a good thing.
I wish more would do so.
