You tell us that Jesus came to destroy sin. Never said that (but He did so only in the lives of BACs who choose to be obedient). You also quote that the believer does not sin. Never said that. You are adding to the text with your opinions. Everyone does that to some extent because ...

Many here have been trying to reveal to you that ... you must NOT take one Scripture and make a doctrine out of it. At the very least, several verses are required. At the very best, the whole of Scripture is required.

I present to thou all of the epistles, which were written to the churches! These constantly warn about the dire consequences of living in SIN. My personal favorite is Romans 6:15-23, but I very much doubt that you comprehend Paul's extremely tactful method of warning this church (which was...

Haz, "No one who lives (menōn, “abides”) in Him keeps on sinning." This is not talking about all BACs who have been sanctified positionally. This is not talking about BACs who are living in unrepented-of sin. This is talking about BACs who are co-operating with being sanctified progressively...

Okay, I'll bite ... why don't we go a step further! Since this appears to be right up your alley ... please tell us what YOU believe da blue is saying: 1 John 4: 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out...

Truly, I feel that I'm writing this for others, and not for you! There many dozens of NT verses, which encourage BACs to stop sinning, be holy, be perfect, be overcomers, etc. This refers to the progressive work of being more and more sanctified. IMO, a 3rd level of sanctification is when God...

Let's do one thing at a time. There are several levels of sanctification: 1) positional sanctification -- BACs have been set apart for God's use 2) progressive sanctification -- BACs are to co-operate with the Holy Spirit ----------------------------in being santified unto holiness ... and I've...

John 3:36 King James Version (KJV) "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." The KJV boys got it wrong again (and was dutifully copied by the NKJV). John 3:36 in the Greek ... He who...

Okay, but I still suggest confirmations from 2 or 3.

If a BAC thinks that God's signs, wonders, and miracles have ceased, and the Lord no longer does things like raising the dead ... he or she is simply living in UNBELIEF (in God's eyes)! This, along with everything else, may be blamed on the lukewarm churches who are either dead or asleep! They...

There are many different verses describing what God's will is for us! There are many other things we need to overcome other than just the world. Rev 3:21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. So, another...

I recommend that you get 2 or 3 confirmations from trusted godly Christians before you commit to proceeding with what you feel God is telling to to do. This is wisdom ... because we have an incredibly wise and intelligent enemy.

Hey haz ... that's what you need to find out ... or else! How does one live righteously ... that is the question.

Yes, on the surface ... and everywhere else. The contradiction remains ... BACs today think they were pronounced righteous for all time and eternity, butski ... they are only counted righteous (in God's eyes, not theirs), IF they live righteously! Everything has always been conditional ... and...

Somehow, you guys are going to have to find a way to reconcile Scripture, instead of desperately hangin' on to your favs! Try these on for size ... Obedient believers practice righteousness, which leads them to the necessary holiness • “you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether slaves...
