A license to sin. Men are sinners naturally. You don't need a license to do what comes naturally. God justified the ungodly by grace. The point is what God has done through Christ. He forgave all sins and cleanses from all sin.Col 2:13

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

And for the forgiven God does not imputed sin Ron 4:7-8

Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

Do you know the reason for being born again? Do you know that without the power of the Holy Spirit indwelling you, you don't belong to Christ? Do you know the purpose of the Holy Spirit? Do you know that without holiness, no man shall see God?

You really need to read past the 4th chapter of Romans. For one thing, Paul's teaching is 8 chapters long, from chapter one through 8. Read it in one sitting because Paul builds onto each chapter. You've stopped at we are not under the law, but that does not mean we are lawless. Chapter 6 will show you how wrong you are. The law could not make us righteous. That was the Old Covenant. The New Covenant laws go deeper to the core of our being, and the Spirit empowers us to fulfill the righteous requirement of God's eternal laws.

God will remember your sins no more because you have repented of them (if you are born again) and therefore you don't commit the same sins anymore. If you still committed them, they would pop up before God and would be a stench in his nostrils.

He will not impute sin to the man who has repented of his sins. It is at the day of judgment that the Lord will not impute his sins unto him; because there was a turning point in his life in which he turned away from and forsook unrighteousness.

False statements no where in scripture. God forgives sins for Christ sake ! Eph 4:32

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

False. Those Christ died for are reconciled to God by His death specifically while they are being enemies and unbelievers Rom 5:10

Not so.

“For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life”.

Once you believe you are no longer an enemy to God. The scripture says nothing about if we become enemies again after being reconciled. Being reconciled you shall be saved if you do not become an enemy once again by falling away.

“They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away”.

If you fall away, this scripture testifies:

“For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame”.

Yes it is out of context. You often do that.

So did the apostle Matthew (in Matthew 2:15) when he quoted out of Hosea 11:1 and applied what originally applied to Israel, to Jesus as the Son of God.

2 Corinthians 9:6 also warrants going elsewhere in scripture to gain topical context (to Luke 8:11 and Ecclesiastes 11:6), lest the verse be found to be teaching word of faith, "health and wealth" doctrine by looking at it in its immediate context...as in the immediate context it would seem to be referring to financial seeds; and sowing and reaping with them...but if you take it out of its original context and apply Luke 8:11, you can come up with a more orthodox interpretation.

It's true. According to Rom 5:10 when were they reconciled to God and how?

I'm not chasing rabbits all over the place! But Ezk 33 is all out of context.

Hard to believe anyone thinks he/she CANNOT sin. We are all sinners.
1 John 3:9 (ESV)
9 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.
Mark 11:25 (NKJV)
25 "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

And how is that not a license to sin? Can you not see that diabolical belief plays right into the devils hand? It is a false doctrine. NO WHERE in scripture do you see anything but the cleansing of ALL your past sins. 2 Peter 1:9. You've sought out teachers who play to what you want to hear, but not the truth of holiness. For without holiness, no man shall see God. Hebrews 12:14.

But the true gospel of Christ makes it easy to be holy. If you ever want to go to heaven, ask me what Christ provides for us to be holy.

Interesting question, but that's like saying "Oh, he paid off your debt? How is that not a license to go accumulate more debt?!"

Have you no conscience?! Your first response to a man laying off your debt is to go out and accumulate more, seeing his kindness as a license to be indebted?

What about changing the definition of sin, making sin out to be something far less than what the Scriptures claim? Now THAT is truely heinous.

The thing we're forgetting here is that's our WILLS have ben changed as well. Yes, we still fall prey to the carnal desires of the flesh, but they are not what our will is inclined to; meaning we feel GUILT for our sins; a guilt of concience that we didn't have before, that will not allow us to "run up the tab." like we used to. Yes we still sin; Paul calls Paul calls out Peter for being sinful and excluding the gentiles. Even the writers of Scripture sinned WHILE THEY WERE WRITING THE BOOK! Does this negate Scripture? No! It gives hope to those of us who still sin; that even when we stumble, the grace and blood of Christ is sufficient for us. Denying you sin, and redefining what a sin actually is simply to claim you are sinless, does nothing but place a vast chasm between you and Christ; Christ did not come to save the perfect, but to save sinners. If you can't be counted as one of the redeemed, you aren't one of his sheep. And personally, I'd rather be in the company of men like Peter.

Unbelievers are all psychotic? I don't think so; I believe that having a conscience does not necessarily mean that you are a believer.

This is another of those unscriptural false doctrines that I find in the modern church regarding sins of lawlessness. (Unintentional trespasses are another issue altogether, and are not covered in this post.)

Scripture is clear that when we come to Christ and He fills us with His Spirit He cleanses us of all unrighteousness. And Peter clarifies further that is only all unrighteousness up to that point when He first cleanses us. Don't you know what the rebirth is about? We are partakers of the divine nature of God that cannot sin. Another argument I've heard is that 1 John 3:9 means practice sins (meaning they will once in a while, just not as a habit), but the second half of the verse verifies it is even commit once. If you cannot sin, you can't do it even once.

1 John 3:9 "Whoever has been born of God does not (commit or practice?) sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. (What about cannot don't they understand?)

2 Peter 1:2-11
2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. 8 For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.

10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; 11 for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Remission of sins is only acquired by being baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins per Acts 2:38.

Then, and only then, do these verses you posted from the epistles to the saved saints apply to us.

That's false. Everyone Christ died for had remission of sins Matt 26:28

For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
