Nothing wrong with this post-it goes against you and your "sinless perfectionism"
Don't come here with a preconceived mindset-attempting to test me-

You don't have a problem with me, but the very Scriptures that continues to remind you that something is wrong-you need to examine yourself and not me.
And don't tell me I don't promulgate the New Covenant the cross and the Christ as if I am an unbeliever.

Reread my post again.
Johann.
All those scriptures of people in the Old Covenant had a fully functioning sin nature all due to Satan's tricking Eve, and Adam willfully breaking God's commandment turning his pure human nature over to a sin nature. Adam turned over the dominion he had over to Satan, and mankind thereafter naturally sinned. You can't relate to sinlessness, but THAT is the reason WHY Jesus came to redeem us. Freedom from sin and its hold on us is the GOOD NEWS. That is the GOSPEL you know nothing about!

1 John 3:4-5
4 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. 5 And you know that
He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.

John 8:32-36
32 And you shall know the truth, and
the truth shall make you free.”
34 Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

This is all done by His sending us the Holy Spirit of the New Covenant. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit for a true Christian is what is different about the New Covenant than the Old Covenant. THE NEW COVENANT the ministry of the Spirit, is the other thing you know nothing about!

The Gospel and the New Covenant both have to do with SINLESSNESS. And you mock it - that is Antichrist. You are a victim of doctrines of DEMONS. You've fallen for their lies hook, line and sinker! You don't even WANT to TRUTH THAT WILL MAKE YOU FREE - FROM SIN.

The sin nature is NOT surgically removed from you-it is still with you.
Johann.
SEE, you know NOTHING. You SAY you are a Christian, just like 1 John 1:8, but ARE THE OPPOSITE. It is no wonder you can't relate to what a true Christian tries to witness to you.

Matthew 7:21-23
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them,
‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

I don't commit lawlessness even ONCE. 'PRACTICE' IS A LIE, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER!!!

1Jn 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
1Jn 1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
1Jn 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1Jn 1:8
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1Jn 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1Jn 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.


"cleanses us from all sin" This is a PRESENT ACTIVE INDICATIVE. The term "sin" is SINGULAR with no ARTICLE. This implies every kind of sin. Notice this verse is focusing on a one-time cleansing (salvation, 1 John 1:9), but on an ongoing cleansing (the Christian life). Both are part of the Christian experience (cf. John 13:10).

1:8 "If we say that we have no sin" This is another THIRD CLASS CONDITIONAL SENTENCE. Sin is a spiritual reality in a fallen world, even for believers (cf. Romans 7; Eph. 4:14; 6:10-18). John's Gospel addresses this issue often (cf. John 9:41; 15:22,24; 19:11). This verse rejects all ancient and modern claims that deny individual moral responsibility.



"we are deceiving ourselves" This Greek phrase refers to personal, willful rejection of truth, not ignorance.


"the truth is not in us" The way to acceptance by a Holy God is not denial, but recognition of our sin and acceptance of His provision in Christ (cf. Rom. 3:21-31). "The truth" can refer to the message about Jesus or the person of Jesus (cf. John 14:6).



1:8,9 "If" These are both THIRD CLASS CONDITIONAL SENTENCES which means potential action.

1:9 "confess" This is a compound Greek term from "to speak" and "the same." Believers continue to agree with God that they have violated His holiness (cf. Rom. 3:23). It is PRESENT TENSE, which implies ongoing action. Confession implies

  1. a specific naming of sins (1 John 1:9)
  2. a public admitting of sins (cf. Matt. 10:32; James 5:16)
  3. a turning from specific sins (cf. Matt. 3:6; Mark 1:5; Acts 19:18; James 5:16)
  4. 1 John uses this term quite often (cf. 1 John 1:9; 4:2,3,15; 2 John 7). Jesus' death is the means of forgiveness, but sinful mankind must respond and continue to respond in faith to be saved (cf. John 1:12; 3:16).


"our sins" Notice the PLURAL. This refers to specific acts of sin.

"He is faithful" This refers to God the Father (cf. Deut. 7:9; 32:4; Ps. 36:5; 40:10; 89:1,2,5,8; 92:2; 119:90; Isa. 49:7; Rom. 3:3; 1 Cor. 1:9; 10:13; 2 Cor. 1:18; 1 Thess. 5:24; 2 Tim. 2:13). God the Father's unchanging, merciful, faithful character is our surest hope! This phrase accentuates God's faithfulness to His Word (cf. Heb. 10:23;11:11). This may also refer to God's New Covenant promise made in Jer. 31:34, which promised the forgiveness of sins.



"and righteous" This term is unusual in a context related to a holy God freely pardoning unholy people. However, this is theologically accurate because God takes our sins seriously, yet He has provided the means for our forgiveness in the substitutionary death of Christ (cf. Rom. 3:21-31).



"forgive . . . cleanse" These are both AORIST ACTIVE SUBJUNCTIVES.

These two terms are synonymous in this context; they refer both to the salvation of the lost and to the ongoing cleansing necessary for fellowship with God (i.e., when God forgives, God fogets, cf. Isa. 1:18; 38:17; 43:25; 44:22; Ps. 103:3,11-13; Mic. 7:19). The false teachers who denied the gospel, needed salvation. Believers who continue to commit acts of sin need restoration of fellowship. John seems to address the first group implicitly and the second explicitly.



"we have not sinned" This is a PERFECT ACTIVE INDICATIVE which implies that one has never sinned in the past nor in the present.

The term "sinned" is SINGULAR and refers to sin in general. The Greek term means "to miss the mark." This means that sin is both the commission and the omission of the things revealed in God's Word. The false teachers claimed salvation was related only to knowledge, not to life.

"we make Him a liar" The gospel is based on the sinfulness of all mankind (cf. Rom. 3:9-18,23; 5:1; 11:32). Either God (cf. Rom. 3:4) or those who claim sinlessness, is lying.

"His word is not in us" This involves the dual aspect of the term "logos," both as a message and a person (cf. 1 John 1:1,8; John 14:6). John often refers to this as "truth."

Guess you call Christ a liar then-and me an anti-Christ.
Johann.

I don't commit lawlessness even ONCE. 'PRACTICE' DOESN'T EVEN MATTER!!!
Close your caps-no need to shout-you are the one calling Christ a liar-not me.

Do you know I’ve had this same problem on forums in the past, no one had a clue what I was talking about.
Then I believe the Holy Spirit led me here, to Behold....it’s wonderful full of spiritual knowledge...the Spirit speaks through him to me.....Praise Jesus all day everyday.

The Spirit is Alive his word is Alive and he speaks to his Children..100%

John 6:63 “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.”

John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

John 8:47 “Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”

Amazing that you should quote this passage-does it not try to "say" something to you?
Problem lately casting out demons? maybe it is not the Ruach-yes?

She's not teaching that "cult" term, that seems to be your obsession, as it is the obsession of Ronald Nolette.

Listen..
She's just showing you that Jesus has her sin, and She has become ..."The Righteousness of God" "in Christ".

There is no sin found in God's "GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS" that every born again believer has received.

And there is no sin found "in Christ", and all the born again are "In Christ"., forever.
There is NO SIN found in GOD s gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS that every born again believer has recieved .
THAT IS TRUE .
And yet many who sin often and even celebrate sin , seems to say that too .
Its as though somehow they believe that IF we now were to sin its not sin .
Let me tell you plainly that is not true . When peter erred paul didnt come and say
ALL IS WELL bud , YOU BELIEVE IN JESUS so its not really YOU SINNING .
Me thinks some folks have taken the truth into an area that is no longer truth .
Rather let us preach and BELIEVE what paul wrote .
WHO YE SERVE IS WHOSE YE ARE . That will put a wake up call in the hearts and minds
of those walking in sin . For many , and boy do i mean many
now use Christ as means to BE IN SIN and not rather preaching the CHRIST that came to set us free FROM SIN .
FROM THE POWER OF THE DEVIL . FROM the POWER of darkness .
MANY forget something .
But paul knew it to be true . ANY who lives in SIN , IS and ARE DEAD while they live in those pleasures .
SEE , the truth is , Let us be FOUND IN CHRIST .
And we both know JESUS aint the ministir of sin . Follow the SPIRIT , NOT THE FLESH .
OBEY THE SPIRIT not the flesh .
ME THINKS many misunderstand romans seven . AND DO so unto their own destruction .
THE SIN that sins . For in every man , in ever person is evil present . MEANING in our flesh .
BUT who , but what are we gonna heed . THE SPIRIT , or the flesh that does so easily rise up to sin .
CHOOSE YE THIS DAY WHOM YE SHALL Serve , whom ye shall obey . But as for the lambs
IT shall be CHRIST . AND as you know , HE DONT LEAD US INTO SIN , the acceptance of sin
or the idea we are free TO SIN . Let us keep that in mind . Let us be a bit more serious
as was the early church who said aloud , LET ALL WHO NAME the NAME OF CHRIST depart from INQUITY .
LET it not once be named among you as BECOMETH SAINTS . AINTS are the ones who down play
warnings , dire and grave reminders , and aints love to holler GOD IS LOVE DONT JUDGE .
YES i know HE is love and yet i know the true text of what it means to NOT JUDGE .
A frienly reminder . IT AINT A SIN TO be grave . IT AINT A SIN TO EXPOSE SIN WITHIN THE CHURCH .
IT AINT a sin to put out those brethren who support sin and teach lies . ITs not a sin
nor judging to CORRECT the church . YET TODAY most thinks it is . JUST a friendly reminder .
Just a friendly reminder indeed .

Even with caps you don't get it. That is willful ignorance! All you see is the opposite of what is in front of you.

I'm putting you on ignore. All you have to teach anyone are doctrines of demons, and do not even want the truth that will set you free to be sinless. Good bye. I'm brushing the dust off my feet from you.

4 He who SAYS, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
He who says I KNOW HIM , and does not keep HIS Commandments , IS A LIAR .
So would you please explain to me why so many are now in love
with this love that cometh not of GOD . I mean why are so many
now embracing this love , which is a lie and not of GOD .
WHY are so many embracing the idea that if muslims , buddists , atheists , and believe me when i say you name it they claim it ,
That if they are doing good works , loving their neighbor , THEY ALL KNOW GOD .
THEY preach an idea that one does not necessarily have to BELIEVE JESUS IS THE CHIRST TO BE SAVED .
FOR a reminder , lets see what JOHN says about he or she who believeth not that JESUS IS THE CHRIST .
DID HE SAY , HE who beleives not that JESUS IS THE CHRIST , ARE FINE SO LONG AS THEY DID GOOD to others
and had love .
or B . HE IS ANTI CHRIST .
FOR the answer GO READ JOHN CHAPTER TWO VERSE TWENTY TWO . IT MAKES IT VERY PLAIN what such a person is .
HE IS ANTI CHRIST . HE who has not the SON has not the FATHER .
JOHN KNEW CHRIST , its quite obvious the all inclusive lovey do pastors DONT .
Now for part two .
DID JESUS COME TO HONOR SIN and allow us to HONOR and celebrate and to live in sin .
NOPE .
SO why do many also preach n teach , and honor SINS as though they are love .
WE GOTTIE BIG TIME PROBLEMS in the CASA .

I know all about Eastern and Western-and as @Behold you are NOT above correction-
DARKNESS 10 If we SAY that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

You claim you are sinless and have the 3 "hearing" gifts-diametrically opposed to what stands written, Perfect Tense-Who is calling Christ a liar?
Do you want to "redefine" the Scriptures to merge with what you believe is correct?

This is my Sunday-and don't have time for people twisting and perverting the holy Scriptures-I know who I am in Christ-you don't.
Read Matthew 25 and James.

Mat 25:31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

Mat 25:32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

Mat 25:33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

Mat 25:34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

Mat 25:35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

Mat 25:36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Mat 25:37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

Mat 25:38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

Mat 25:39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

Mat 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

Mat 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

Mat 25:42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

Mat 25:43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

Mat 25:44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

Mat 25:45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.


Mat 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

You have already "sinned" by calling me an anti-Christ and take this matter to the Lord Jesus-may He have mercy on your soul.

Johann.

Don't pester me again.

Even with caps you don't get it. That is willful ignorance! All you see is the opposite of what is in front of you.

I'm putting you on ignore. All you have to teach anyone are doctrines of demons, and do not even want the truth that will set you free to be sinless. Good bye. I'm brushing the dust off my feet from you.
Bon Voyage-I had enough of you twisting the very plain Scriptures.
Johann.

God is true to his word...the powerful word of God...

Ezekiel 36:26-28

Ezekiel 36:26-28 NLT​

And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations. “And you will live in Israel, the land I gave your ancestors long ago. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
God is not only true to His WORD . HE IS HIS WORD . ponder on the beauty of that .
And as far as a new heart and new spirit . Rest assured it wont celebrate nor honor , nor allow sin
to be honored or done WITHIN THE CHURCH .
I rebuked PETER before them all . Its not a sin , to CORRECT those within the church OF THEIR ERRORS and sins .
So , i ask again and say again . YOU can do what paul told the church it ought to do .
IF any who is a brother or sister , IS a fornicator , etc
DO NOT EVEN eat with such a one .
Are you ready to change your mind about this they might commit suicide stuff
We are not to follow the teachings of physcology and mens ideals .
WE are to follow the example and truth set before us in said SCRIPS written BY TRUE MEN WHO knew Christ .
Just a friendly reminder . Just a friendly reminder .
And i can bring many actual scrips from that bible to confirm this . WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR THEM .

There is NO SIN found in GOD s gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS that every born again believer has recieved .
THAT IS TRUE .
Guess I am going to disagree with you here brother-a believer CAN commit an ACT of sin, in word, thought and deed-hence the Imperative for ongoing confessing our shortcomings.

Indeed, that’s why I have NO SIN...I’m Born Again.. I have that new heart and Spirit within.

Just the renewing of our minds..

The word of God to his Born Again Children.

1 John 3:9
Context Crossref Comment Greek
Verse (Click for Chapter)
New International Version
No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.

New Living Translation
Those who have been born into God’s family do not make a practice of sinning, because God’s life is in them. So they can’t keep on sinning, because they are children of God.

English Standard Version
No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God

There is NO SIN found in GOD s gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS
And yet many who sin

There is no sin found in God's Righteousness and all the Born again Have "The Gift of Righteousness".

There is no sin found "in Christ", and all the born again are in Christ.

SIN is found when the LAW reveals it.... and "The born again are not under the Law, but under Grace".

"Where there is no Law, there is no Sin *Transgression*..."

:"Jesus is the ... END....OF....THE. LAW.....for Righteousness...for/to everyone who Believes"..


Do you believe in Jesus? Are you born again?
Then you are as Righteous as God, because God has given you "the Gift of Righteousness"

You are "made righteous'...


Welcome To : Salvation

Its a eternal "Gift" from God that Jesus died to provide for you.

Do you know I’ve had this same problem on forums in the past, no one had a clue what I was talking about.
Then I believe the Holy Spirit led me here, to Behold....it’s wonderful full of spiritual knowledge...the Spirit speaks through him to me.....Praise Jesus all day everyday.

The Spirit is Alive his word is Alive and he speaks to his Children..100%

John 6:63 “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.”

John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

John 8:47 “Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”
Some read the TRUTH shall make you free, and read no further. What is the TRUTH? Some think freedom to sin while the blood of Jesus covers their sins. But Jesus means that the power of His Spirit inside of us frees us from the mere desire to sin. The TRUTH is He makes us sinless. Satan made us sinners, and slaves to sin.

It looks like with verse 47 you hit the nose on the head about why some one these forums are CLUELESS.
