yes, we're all swimming in sin, even the most pious of us.Surely most people do that on an almost daily basis ?
well gee, you're the first person who has ever felt that way i guess, so my apologiesI Trust the Lord, that what He says IS, and His Power Effects What He says IS.
Not sure why you think Understanding Scripture is easily demonstrated.
yes, we're all swimming in sin, even the most pious of us.
throwing away a piece of plastic is likely a sin even.
um, who is this "we" you speak of, though? All of "us" who claim to be in Christ, rightAnyway, in Christ we do not sin anymore. The bridge of perfection to God is sealed.
So, do you consider yourself free from Matt 22:37-
"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
The root of sin has been dealt with.
The ONLY sin that remains..is to sin against Love.
Sin is stepping out of the spirit within you, and thus outside the will of God. I don’t know if breaking secular law really counts as sin if there is no personal conviction. A conviction of sin is the realization that either an infraction was committed or close to that point regarding God's will for us. If you are not convicted or seared with a conviction I would not consider that sin. Many believers get caught up into thinking that every time they move wrong it might be a sin. Yes, we are more sensitive to sin and that is our lifestyle.
Does a mentally unstable person that kills someone commit sin. I do not think so.
Anyway, in Christ we do not sin anymore. The bridge of perfection to God is sealed.
Bless you,

you, me, Hitler, we all feel the same way here, i guessI don't believe I am the first, nor did I say so.

Disagree.
In regard to a NATURAL MAN....yes ... absolutely.
In regard to a CONVERTED MAN...no...
A Converted man "IS" "COVERED" with the "LIGHT" of God, which OVERCOMES "darkness", which darkness IS the result of SIN.....and LIGHT IS the result of OVERCOMING Darkness.
God Bless,

you, me, Hitler, we all feel the same way here, i guess

do you own a car? use promissory notes from a central bank as if they were money?
at least don't kid yourself, ok?
at least don't kid yourself, ok? me you can lie to...
if i have to breathe the exhaust from them, probably, yesIs owning possessions a sin?
Gov issued notes? lol. Kennedy tried that; after Lincoln did.Is using Government issued notes a sin?
those who speak for the oppressed? something like thatIF so, HOW SO? According to WHAT?
um, who is this "we" you speak of, though? All of "us" who claim to be in Christ, right
so a chimera is made, out of our desire to associate with the description of those "in Christ" in Scripture and our desire to justify ourselves, rather than our need to spiritually "die" so that Christ may live through us. imo.
We read a description and then say "oh, that must be me, bc i have accepted Jesus with my mouth."
Hitler claimed the promises too, see
so does Lloyd Blankfein, Imelda Marcos, and all of the others whose fruit is now obvious. The Bakkers, etc
Well, God only knows that answer completely. Kind of like the Johari window of knowing self.could it just be that we are mentally unstable in Gog's eyes - twinc
c'mon, the Bakkers et al, they don't claim to be "in Christ?"I don't think they claimed to be in Christ.
well, that is strictly a guess, and may only describe a small part of a bell-curve too. or maybe a big part.Well I think you have already answered you own queries directed toward me in your response.
The Bakers..TV folks...well they did profess to be in Christ...their fruits were still false...sorry about that one.c'mon, the Bakkers et al, they don't claim to be "in Christ?"
