I thought Karma was like Gal. 6:7-8, “Reap what you sow.” But the Hindu man on the plane explained Karma to the preacher. He said, “Karma means that you get exactly what you deserve, based on what you did in your life.” The preacher answered, “I don’t get what I deserve, because Jesus died for me on the cross and His blood redeemed me from all that I have done.” So there really is “No condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, to those who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.” Romans 8:1. We don’t have to pay for all the bad things we’ve done! We are free!!! We’ve been delivered from sin and death. (and from the “wheel of existence”, as the Hindus might say.) ‘Course I guess you might say that Karma (as the Hindus perceive it) applies to your ‘natural’ life, in the sense that there are consequences for our actions. We end up being responsible for the things we do, whether we like it or not.
But in the spiritual realm, Jesus has provided us a way to be delivered from the sin that so easily attacks us. If we trust Him, Jesus will (and DOES) deliver us from sin and death.
Just between me and you, I think God lets that deliverance seep over into our (us believers) ‘natural’ lives as well. “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
