It means that sin in the flesh is rendered dead (Romans 6:6, Galatians 5:24, Romans 7:8).

The sin nature does not leave your body when you come to Christ...that which is born of the flesh is flesh. Your flesh doesn't die until you physically die and go on to be in the next life. You can mortify the deeds of the body (Romans 8:12-13). I want to say that you are taking an awful...

I don't deny that I have a sin nature... But the fact that I do have a sin nature does not make me a "sinner" in the sense of that word meaning a person who sins... Sin is rendered dead in me so that I am a debtor, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. While if you define a...

Nope...I am not dishonest about the fact that I have a sin nature because I have maturity in Christ.

Paul in his progression of knowledge as a believer, went from 1 Corinthians 4:4, to 1 Corinthians 15:9, to Ephesians 3:8, to 1 Timothy 1:15...and this indicates that the more mature we grow in Christ, the more we see ourselves as sinners. Job and Daniel (and I think a few others also) when they...

The reason why I can see the truth (and you can't) is that I take all verses into account; while you discount certain verses that don't fit your fancy. It (1 Timothy 1:15) is a trustworthy saying and worthy of all acceptation...for each one of us to own the saying for ourselves.

Matthew, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, took Hosea 11:1 out of context in Matthew 2:15 and applied it to Jesus when the original scripture applied to Israel. 2 Corinthians 9:6 gives prosperity teaching credibility when taken in its immediate context...one has to use the hermeneutic...

Through water baptism in Jesus' Name, a man identifies with Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection; dies and is buried and raised with Him. It is in fact through faith in the operation of God that this even avails for a man.

The answer is behind the link... Was the death on the cross necessary?

It is a practical matter, Galatians 5:24. That is contrary to Hebrews 10:4. He is talking about taking away sins period. The purpose of the law is so that man may know that he is a sinner in need of a Saviour, Romans 3:20, Galatians 3:24. It is indeed obtainable in this life. And...

Possibly. It may be in my mental illness; but I believe in time travel. And it is possible that the document that I wrote will in the future be translated into Greek and sent back in time to Paul's time. There are certainly aspects of the document that might have influenced Paul to write what...

Not satan's lies. It is my testimony concerning the matter. You can take it or leave it; you can either believe me or call me a liar. I know that I am telling you the truth; my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost.

All scripture is inspired of the Lord and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness.

Well, I am just going to pray for you that the Lord will show you who you are apart from the Holy Spirit, like He did with me. 1Ti 1:15, This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. I pray the Lord that He...

Because the apostle John is a Christian; and he includes himself in the statement.

Then there is Hebrews 10:26-31 and Luke 8:13. If a person who is saved from sin (Matthew 1:21) through faith in Jesus Christ, later turns completely away from faith (which would be a sin), they have fallen away and will not enter into heaven...while for all practical purposes they were saved in...

I know....the two doctrines are similar, aren't they? (in that both are basically ridiculous). Yet I heard the words coming out of his own mouth.

1 John 1:8 does not teach that sinning in the future is inevitable. For the element of sin can be rendered dead so that it has no say over our behaviour...we can walk a consistent life of freedom and victory for the rest of our lives, in fact. No. If sin is rendered dead in me, it has no...

Jesus was not here contradicting what was previously said, but clarifying it.
