    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Let's take a look. Paul was humble as we all need to be. Recognizing it is all of God through His Spirit will keep us that way. Say what you will about Paul and your opinion about what he said about himself. But the one thing you can't take away from what he said is in verse 15 he states that he...

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    We did. Romans 8:2 shows that Paul is no longer in bondage to the Law of Sin. Not being able to help what he does.

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    (1John 3:7 [KJV]) Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Romans 7 huh? In Romans 8 verse 2 Paul claims he had been freed from the bondage of sin in which he called the Law of sin in chapter 7. Praise God!

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    If one has reached sinless perfection, they are going against the 13 Pauline Epistles? How so?

    Can a Person be Born Homosexual?

    Even as a heterosexual I did not become interested until the idea was introduced to me. A lot of other sins were the same way. I believe the only thing for me that came naturally was lying. And that was to avoid being in trouble. For the most part we are our environment. Maybe 25 minutes is...

    How the New Word Translation Contradicts Itself: The Word was a god

    To say something like this is figurative is subjective and does not answer the point being made objectively. Quit simply God spoke and He is what He spoke. And His Word is life because God is Life. Just as Genesis states, God said, and it was so. The connective καὶ is used throughout the text...

    How the New Word Translation Contradicts Itself: The Word was a god

    A natural translation of the text show that most translation are bias. It plainly states "And God was the Word" Not and the word was a god or the word was God. Meaning they are the same not two.

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    It is always about intention. He that knows to do good and does it not, to him it is sin. My friend the tense does not work that way. Will you hold that principle to the other instances to which the Greek word is used in the same tense? Sticking to just John he uses that word with the same...

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    You haven't addressed the points of the posts. John did write through God verse 1:8 in the 1st person plural. In other words The writer John is including himself in the admonition. And Sin here in verse 8 is a noun not a verb. Temptation will always be a problem for us here. If we confess the...

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    No, the issue with promoting the verse being translated practice rather than commit is the defining of practice. It is not specific enough. You see we can practice golf once a day, week, month, year or every couple of years. It is heart intention., willful practice or committing that John is...

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    No you are ignoring the genitive to fit the narrative of the Latin Vulgate. The context is the righteousness OF the God and oOF the Savior Jesus Christ. No definite article (2Pet 1:1 [TRi]) ' δικαιοσύνῃ Righteousness τοῦ the θεοῦ God ἡμῶν Of Us καὶ And σωτῆρος OF Saviour Ἰησοῦ Jesus...

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    Sin in verse 8 is a noun not a verb. It is does not have to become an action. Otherwise the subjunctive mode, the mode of possibility in verse 2:1 does not hold much value in respect to that we "may not sin" and the condition of the advocate Jesus being ready to intercede "if" we do. The word...

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    Hebrews 10 is clear. When people try to explain it away because of willfully sinning is when a issue arises.

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    Even Michael the archangel dare not bring railing accusations when disputing over the body of Moses. But said, "the Lord rebuke thee". And no that was merely a definition of the word genitive. No. The subject is the obtained faith in righteousness of the God of us. The copulative "and" is used...

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    2 Peter 1:1 also has a context issue in respect to Sharps Rule. As was previously stated but placed here for our convenience. ...... Did you notice the use of the definite article τοῦ in reference to the God and Jesus being the Lord. And how they are separated by the Greek conjunctive particle...

    1 John 3:9 - Is it cannot "practice" sin, or cannot "commit" sin?

    And 8;2 where it says we have been set free from the law of sin and death that Paul said he was in bondage to in chapter 7. We have been set free from the Law of sin which is as Paul stated. We can't help what we do because sin in slaves, brings us in to bondage to it. We can't help ourselves...

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    One more thing in respect to Titus 2:13. And that would be context and sentence structure. It is the Glory of the God that is appearing. And that Glory would be the Savior of us Jesus Christ. May the Lord our God continue to bless us in all His Way Jesus Christ our Lord. (Titus 2:13 [TRi])...

    John 1:1 - Jesus is the Father or he's not the one true God?

    And Sharp's rule wouldn't apply when context to what we are discussing has already been established in chapter one in Titus and then again a distinction is made between God and Christ in chapter three. We highlighted in bold the words the apply so as no one misses them. (Titus 1:1 [KJV]) Paul...
