I need to know and it would help if you told me.

Of course He was preaching to Jews. They were the ones to first receive the gospel! But Jesus was not preaching Old Covenant commandments, but the deeper laws that will surpass them that we will do naturally by the Spirit in the New Covenant to be truly righteous. Not some righteousness that...

Do your doctrines tell you that you will sin until you die?

But that's Calvinism. That is their definition of that verse! Believing our past, present and future sins are forgiven AS WE COMMIT THEM! I experienced being born again and just the day before I was consumed by my sin. But when I was cleansed of my sin it was totally gone. No more desire to...

That's what I believe also. When I had this discussion with a Calvinist once, I told him the same thing, and we agreed on the term Once, Truly Saved, Always Saved. That was to show the difference between the two you just spoke of. There are people in church that are not born again, and the Holy...

Why do you believe the born again keep willfully sinning and are not practicing sinlessness?

I know. Was it you I told to look at the verses in the 2nd chapter of 1 John that have the KEY WORD/S "Say"/Says" of a person saying one thing, but doing another, and THEN go back and read 1 John 1, the key word verses of darkness and lies 6, 8 and 10. From verse 5 to 10 it is a contrast between...

I can't lose my salvation because I don't want to. But there are doctrines of demons that trick people into sinning because the false teaching of "Jesus forgives our past, present and future sins," so it doesn't matter what you do. That is what you believe. 2 Peter 2 18 For when they speak...

8 and 10 is BEFORE Christ, when we have a sin nature, so saying we don't sin is a lie. 9 is How to become a true Christian who has been cleansed of all unrighteousness at the source - the sin nature, purifying it to be sinless. To mock perfectionism is to mock Jesus to commanded us to be...

The cleansing blood is only past because that is all that is necessary. When He takes away the DESIRE TO SIN, because he cleanses our sin nature to be sinless, there is not present of future willful sinning anymore. If you think there is then it is you that doesn't know the power of the Cross.

You seem to be talking about Romans 3 25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He...

I'm astonished you don't believe in what Jesus accomplished on that cross! He died to TAKE AWAY our sin, because all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God SIN ADAM SINNED WILFULLY! Therefore, God Himself became flesh and dwelt among us as the Advocate for the whole world! You believe...

I know you don't believe in looking at context, as we've had that discussion before, but the context of 1 John 3 is the major type of sin of lawlessness. That is murder, adultery, etc. So you think it is okay to murder once in a while, just as long as you don't make a practice of it? Hmmmm.

If she believes it is the devil when it is God, and the devil when it is the devil, she always thinks its the devil. That's unbelief in God, and tunnel vision.

I agree regarding the first covenant, but if we couldn't keep the old covenant laws, how are we going to keep new ones?

If you read the whole chapter you will see how easy it is to be pure when you have the Spirit writing His laws on our conscience. Just don't do anything against your conscience. Verse 21. When you have the Spirit, if ever, you can be sinless also by walking in the Spirit (part of Galatians 5)

True seekers of truth will make the effort; those looking for justification for their sin already accept they’ve found it, therefore twist the rest of the epistle to match their error, such as adding the sin-softener word “practice” throughout 1 John, though in Greek it is not praseo, but pasio...

I did. My "yes" was to his question of am I sinless.

That question is asked by people who have not received the Holy Spirit's power over sins unto death inside of them. Jesus said, "few there are who find it." I went to church for 30 years BEFORE finding it. So I can relate to the weak people who ask. I used to be weak too.

Sorry Enoch for taking so long to read you post. I just went searching for it. You are correct in that it is the "THE CUTTING OFF of the power of the sin nature over the child of God. Thus Paul Says "Sin shall NOT have dominion over you". Look at what Paul said. So now take off "sin" away from...
