Actually it is that narrow path not many will or could do, it takes faith, that is not about salvation that is about being a disciple, you know many called few chosen, that bit about hating all to follow Him, God never started this to destroy all mankind, He knew what was going to happen, why do you think Jesus was crucified before the foundation of the world. She is setting up men to fail, by "her" standard.

Jesus sets the bar quite low .. being more righteous than the Lawgivers and Pharisees - and Jesus didn't think much of these folks.

Blessed are the "Poor" in spirit - for theirs is the Kingdom.

Actually, the bar was set high...in that the scribes and Pharisees, outwardly, were impeccably righteous.

In order to enter the kingdom, we must both have the imputed righteousness of Christ (which is perfect) and we must be regenerated and renewed on the inside so that we have an inward righteousness that is impeccable.

This is called entire sanctification; and there are few who find the key to obtaining it.

There is nothing more perfect than the Spirit given us from God, it is He who is perfect, nothing we can do to this flesh to perfect, He never died to save out flesh, a vessel to carry our spirit just as wine jars carry wine, The outside has no bearing on the inside, it is a bit like the pharisees. look like genuine expensive bottles of wine untill you taste it, than you discover its quiet sour.

WHO THINKS THIS?
It is unknown to those brainwashed by the false doctrine.
According to this, your answer of who thinks it is ok to sin because god cannot see.your answer is, it is unknown...

or you did what you usually do and failed to read my question and gave an offbeat answer which did not answer my question,

either way, I asked you numerous times, and once again, you either can not answer, or will not answer (because you can’t)

Here is the real issue....

Is it right to try resisting sin in one's own strength? Now Judaism is based on this...on David and His heart.

David said...

Psalm 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

So who is doing the hiding? God?....or is it our devotion to God and reverence for His words?

So we can indeed overcome sinfulness this way. This is not the perfect walk but it is a respectful walk before God. It is the way to walk when we are NOT crucified and walking in perfect holiness.

To walk in one's own strength. This is the way of the faithful Jew. And we can learn from this. That's why Paul says that the OT can teach us righteousness.

But almost no modern believers understand this due to a false religious indoctrination. So the Jews just think we are pagans who love to sin and are looking for an excuse to not hold the words of God reverently. They see our idolatry. We have rejected the fear of the Lord in exchange for lawlessness.

Or...is resisting sin a good thing?

If we resist sin in our own strength...then that means we are not always in the Spirit...where there is no effort required.

So then we are to go in and out of the Spirit...in order to become more mature and learn to live by the meekness of taking in the in grafted word and growing in our reliance on God.

Hi Randy,

I really liked your post, though I would like to say . . . our sins are not in fact covered, rather, in our new creation, we are completely separated from our sins.

So that our new nature does not sin, all sin comes from the old nature.

But as we trust in God for our sanctification, letting Jesus be our Advocate instead of thinking we have to "go in there and make things right", then the sin and temptation tends to fade away. In the day of testing we cling more tightly to Christ.

Much love!



This is pure Gnosticism and false. It is a human reasoning trying to fit Adam into the bible wordings...unsuccessfully.

When we sin...ALL of us sins. A little leaven leavens the whole batch. Without spot or wrinkle means just that.

Righteous is as righteous does. Elect is as elect does.

You need to understand what grace from God is...not what Adam (the fallen man) wants it to be.

“that' the difference between "sin", and "iniquity". sin is abstract, you cannot see it... a thought. but the manifestation is it works.” “then that unseen thought is manifested, in the works of the flesh,”

Couldn’t the same be said of the ‘mind of Christ’ the manifestation of the unseen, is the working of the Spirit Of God? 2 Corinthians 4:10-11 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. [11] For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. So then death worketh in us, but life in you.

1 John 3:8-11 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. [9] Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. [10] In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. [11] For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.




Let is an act of will.
Whose Will? Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
GINOLJC, to all.
first thanks for the reply, second, yes, and no. so why do I say it this way, just as God have a will, so did he give to man, a Free will to act. but there are two word, (in Greek, which is one word in English), one need to know & understand, "POWER". and in the Greek,

A. G1411, dunamis. and B. G1849, exousia.

one have the Ability, A and the other B. the freedom, or the will to ACT. see the difference. if not, I suggest reading both definition in the Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words.

lets teach by example. can your arm raise itself above your head? yes, with authorization from the brain which hold the will, or gives freedom to perform the act. see the brain, or the thoughts in it, gives freedom, or authorization to the muscles in the arm to allow it the movement, but if the muscles in the arm is weak, or... (DEAD), then the a. freedom is not accomplish, nor b. as well as the action.

see God use thoughts as we, and as well as the devil. hence the term "TEMPTATION". thoughts can or cannot influence your will to act or not, (should be based on knowledge and understanding). just as EVE was tempted in the Garden.

I see where you may be going with this, but understand, God is a Spirit who have a will, meaning he, God, have "Soul". scripture, Isaiah 1:14 "Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them." there is an abundant amount of informatation in just one verse.

so the soul is the ... for a better word, the gatekeep to our whole being, so to speak. it's the balance of the soul that is at stake, Good or Evil.

now let me say this before I go any futher. as with Good, evil have it's place in God's over all economy in this life. (notice how I worded that, (this Life).

now you said this, "1 John 3:8-11 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil". this is not speaking of an single act, but a continual work or pratice at it. understand the "WAGES" of sin is death, not a wage, but wages, meaning making sin his or her business in life. see the difference. born again christian should....grow out of constant sinning ... see the difference now, that's why 1 John 2:1 states, "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:" BINGO, see that, little children, children makes mistakes, and in GROWING UP, "that ye sin not" so don't beat up yourself, or dwell, in shame over it, "LEARN FROM IT". this is call becoming "WISE" ... you LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES.

understand we have not yet shedded these fleshly bodies. we will when he returns. as the Holy Spirit said by his apostle Paul, "FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH". this is what I'm saying. and know one thing you're never alone. just in case you slip, you want FALL... from GRACE, it only makes you better. hence again.... "FORGIVNESS", that's why 1 John 1:9 follows 1 John 1:8, and not the other way around, (smile).

see that's why the best sinners, (smile), makes the best christians. they can see a lie a mile off, while one who have not been ... let say out in the world that much.... want even see the LIE even after it may have passed.

so know what is the perfect will of God is. and to get UNDERSTANDING from God, who gives it freely. scripture, Romans 12:1 "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."Romans 12:2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." BINGO, you already had a change, or re-newing of heart, spirit, you REPENTED, now, re-new your mind, by LEARNING the word of God. just as you learned WRONG/EVIL, well 1 Thessalonians 5:21 "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." that's why I always say if you give something, well let me prove it out by the scriptures, so give scripture so what you said can be establish or not. that's how one can know the TRUTH/Good from a LIE/Evil, it's by the word of God.

now listen real good,
Ephesians 5:15 "See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,"Ephesians 5:16 "Redeeming the time, because the days are evil."Ephesians 5:17 "Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is."

this is what Eve was seeking... "WISDOM", to be wise. but she ate a lie instead... yes that thought. as proverb states, Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." so again proverb, "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding". as I alway said, have the Holy Spirit as your guide when you read God Holy Word.

Proverbs 14:16 "A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident."

so how do one know what is EVIL, well we have a handbook right in front of us called the bible, and the perfect TEACHER, the Holy Spirit, God himself, the Lord JESUS..

and my personal testimony is, .... "THE HANDBOOK WORKS", the only thing we need to do is LISTEN to it, or in the words of the Garden creator, "EAT THIS FRUIT OF TRUTH" IT WILL MAKE YOU "wise", that our TEACHER.
IT'S JUST THAT SIMPLE,, as I said, I'm a living testimony that the handbook, and the GREAT TEACHER, works.

Admittedly wills are confusing. Hopefully my will is not stronger than His. Although I can be very willful, His will is Greater. He spoke ‘Let there be light, and there was light.’ For me, not saying it is right but John 1:11-13 seems pretty clear: He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

it is just like those add these things unto you ...you and I were discussing on the other thread, and seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added...yet man and mans ‘free will’ wants to take the credit of ‘add these things (all gifts—given—of the Spirit). Forgetting (God gives the increase). What is given and received and added unto of the world is instead the spirit of fear again unto bondage. The list of the manifestation of the flesh all born out of the bondage of vanity (emptiness).
Who has free will and is not subject ‘held captive’ to death and vanity and bondage expect and Only John 8:34-38 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. [35] And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. [36] If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. [37] I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. [38] I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

ok VJ, let me made it as plain as I can, with the will, THOUGHTS unseen, and the power and ability.

example, put a peice of paper in front of you. say to it "move" wait a few seconds... nothing happend... NOW, blow on the paper. see the difference.

now do you understand the power of,
A. G1411, dunamis, he Ability. and B. G1849, exousia, the freedom, or the will to ACT.

see one can sin, but not act upon it..... see it now. you might not can control someone's else thoughts, but you sure can control what you act or not act on. got me now?.

The key word of the most common false doctrine is "cover." Anytime I hear someone use the phrase "the blood of Jesus "covers" our sin," I know they have been taught the watered down, powerless understanding of what the blood of Jesus actually does, and lives their lives struggling with sin, but has the false assurance that God can't see their sinning, so they still have their ticket to heaven. Many in these denominations that teach "covering" attract persons who desire to still be carnal; and never become born again - actual children of God. Not just in theory, but actually. Not just imputed righteousness (another key phrase used in this false doctrine), but actually. Jesus is coming back for a spotless Bride, not one who is still a slave to sin.

Part of the false doctrine is "we will always sin until we die and receive new bodies." The misunderstanding of the word "flesh" is the problem. Paul uses it equal to the old sinful carnal nature inherited from Adam. Those who believe this doctrine of demons never seek to be free, because they have been told they have to go through a life-long process of sanctification of overcoming sin. In other words, they have to become righteous in their own power of learning right from wrong. Good grief, that is what the Old Covenant was all about, but Romans 7:13 shows the problem. Sin in our nature. What is needed is a brand new spotless, powerful nature that partakes of the divine nature of Christ. 2 Peter 1:2-11. This is why 2 Peter 1:9 shows that only our past sins were cleansed. 1 John 1:9 ideally needs to only happen once. Then the fruit of the Spirit grows to maturity. The result of immature fruit causes minor trespasses, but forgiving others their trespasses against us causes our Advocate to forgive our trespasses. Matthew 6:14-15

Jesus' blood cleanses us of ALL sin; He takes it away, not just covers it up. He does NOT leave us with the old carnal nature of Adam? NO! Jesus is the new Adam. We become partakers of the divine nature of God that does not sin. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ has FREED us from the law of sin and death. Otherwise, we are not born again prepared for heaven. The New Covenant method regarding sin, is completely different than the Old Testament COVERING of sin, like a tarp over a cesspool, leaving the vile stench below.

The question arises from those in the false doctrine. "Then do we never have to repent again?" How many times does Peter say to repent in Acts 2:38? Or in 1 John 1:9? Once. If you truly repent and truly want to be holy, Jesus gives you His powerful sinless Spirit to change your desires. That is what becoming born again is all about. He makes you partakers of the divine nature.

So, no, once you truly repent, you shouldn't have to repent again and again as in the weak doctrine of covering our sin. You have no desire to do anything to repent of. Those desires have been TAKEN AWAY.
We have now our relationship with the Father firmly establish, and our sinning does not affect that, but when we sin, must confess and repent to keep our fellowship with Him right!

When you repent of a sin, do you go back to the same sin?

Divine power, yet so many christians take years to realize they are no longer condemned, but you will sit there and condemn them. Sin is not a problem with Jesus as you said your self, how many times is that now,

I know there are many Christians that do not fear or respect God, but just want Him to take them to heaven. That is enough for them.

Oh but now you changed it to past sins, so Christ never finished the works, now you have too, no longer about Him. Ill add a little story. Not that you would believe it. Posted it few times here. Noting this is more for the babes.

I changed it? No, Peter said it. It doesn't matter how many times you post the opposite, the Word of God trumps unscriptural false doctrine.

Only one, beleieve, you see you by your own understanding, you have exclude 99.99999999999% of the worlds population, God didnt start this to not finish it, and Jesus never died for the righteous, they dont need Him HE said so Himself.

He died for all sinners, and those who come to Him, he makes them born again with His own Spirit that HATES SIN, and has no desire to commit it. Those are not sinners any longer in reality, but God calls them His children. You believe the myth that we can go on sinning and God accepts it. God is holy, and without holiness, no man shall see God. Hebrews 12:14.

Jesus and John said if you hate you are guilty of murder. And John takes it one step further saying if you don't show love towards a brother its also hate which equals murder.

Yes, we have to mature the fruit of the Spirit. To become perfect and mature, we need to follow the steps Peter sited in 2 Peter 1:5-7. The number one fruit of the Spirit is LOVE. It is the most important fruit. And the last step in maturing to perfection is LOVE. The final goal.

My flesh rises up on me about once every two weeks; and I am ashamed to say that I have given in to it on many occasions.

Indwelling sin is not a false doctrine, it is biblical (1 John 1:8, Romans 7:18, 1 Timothy 1:15).

The reality is that if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.

Do you interpret that differently when I say it than when it is written by the apostle John?

We all have indwelling sin; but that element of sin can be rendered dead (Romans 6:6, Galatians 5:24, Romans 7:8) so that it has no authority over my behaviour; so that it no longer has dominion over me (Romans 6:14).

When I fall, I get back up again (Proverbs 24:16).

I have basic victory over sin in my life but there are occasions when I do falter, fail, or faint; and when I do sin, I believe that my sin is indeed covered by Christ's blood. Your contention that I am not forgiven when I sin is unfounded in holy scripture. Jesus died for me and I am forgiven of past, present, and future sin.

I am not under the law (Romans 6:14) am dead to the law (Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19) and am delivered from the law (Romans 7:6).

What this means is that the law no longer condemns me, because I am forgiven of all of my sins so that the law does not apply to my life to call me a sinner any more, even when I do sin.

While I am also governed by the law (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 5:5); or rather, I am governed by the love of Christ which is the fulfilling of the righteousness of the law within me.

If I blow it, that only means that I am ungodly; and therefore I am the perfect candidate for Christ to call me righteous (Romans 4:5).

Now that I have the unalterable identity of being declared righteous, the Lord's exhortation to me is to go and live like my new identity.

I believe I have already answered this post a couple days ago. Is this a copy and paste? You didn't believe me the first time, so I'm not going to repeat myself.
