All have sinned because of inheriting the sin nature passed down from Adam. So Jesus was able to DIE for us because HE sinned according to you.

It wasn't about you. Thanks for asking to clear that up. I had one person in mind actually who should know better. But I didn't want to accuse him publicly by singling him out. Surely, if you read it again more carefully, you will reason that out. How many people do you know that memorizes the...

In John 8:32 Jesus said, "the truth shall set you free." Then He goes on in 34-36 “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free...

Glad I have a thick skin, plus mature fruit. So, do you believe Jesus took away our inner sin nature or not? Answer, "yes" or "not." Our body is dying because of ADAM'S SIN not OUR still sinning.

Paul made it clear in Romans 8:9-10 that in Romans 6, 5-7, the "old man"/sin nature that was crucified and resurrected NOW is not our body of flesh and bone that we see dying before our very eyes, but dwells within. "But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God...

So, tell me. Which of the two types of sins do you commit? Willful lawless sins unto death against the Ten Commandments that no born again of the Spirit Christian can even commit according to 1 John 3:9, or just immature fruit of the Spirit you commit unintentionally until the Spirit checks...

Read this. For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

If you read it again, I did not name anyone, but included everyone as to NOT do what you accuse me of. Again, you read what you want and believe what you want, whether it is true or false.

I believe clean is clean. That is why there is no "practice" in 1 John 3:9 as modern Bibles add.

I see a few who do not believe Jesus destroyed the works of Satan. Not all. Don't you know that this body is like a floppy puppet? It is NOT sinning on its own. That is why it doesn't have to be born again now, but can wait until our resurrection from the dead. What is born again NOW is our...

Jesus has tried to make salvation as easy as possible. "My yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Hebrews 12:2 says He is both that AUTHOR and FINISHER of our faith. You say "grace on grace" and you are right when you know the meaning of grace is the power of God, not unmerited favor. Jesus...

Galatians 5:17 has caused many problems because the publishers of the Bible printed spirit with a capital "S." Our spirit is our mind, and our soul is our heart and conscience. Think about it. Galatians 5:17 is the same as Romans 7:25 before Romans 8:2 that shows freedom from both the law and...

Not sure where in the Bible you are referring to when you say the sin nature becomes nearly OPAQUE? Some would consider that being black with sin, when in reality our born again nature is clean and CLEAR. John 15:3

I didn't know you believe we are still under the Old Covenant and therefore are UNDER the Law?

What does flesh in these two verses mean to you? The body? How can we not be in our body and still live? Or do you believe verse 9 is after our death? I've known you a long time and I will be flabbergasted if you believe Paul means we are not in the flesh only after we are dead. Romans 8:8-9 8...

Not really. My verses all say Jesus did not leave us with a sin nature, but are clean. That doesn't mean we don't have free will, but we no longer want to sin IF we keep abiding in Him and do not keep ourselves. 1 John 5:18 "We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been...

Paul uses "the flesh" in two ways. One is our body of flesh and bones. But the other is the inner part of our body, the spirit and soul that make up our nature. That is what is born again of the Spirit, not our body. At least, not yet. Our body doesn't make up our personality or character. How...

Adam and Even did not know they were naked when Eve first ate of the forbidden tree, but their eyes were opened only after Adam committed a willful sin against the commandment of God and knowingly and willfully sinned against God, Himself. There is a difference in sin in the eyes of God. From...

Do you mean Jesus has already come with his host of saints?

Do you believe 1 John 1:8 is about you and me, making us born again Christians uncleansed sinners? 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
