Like this? 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

I'm sure you are speaking for yourself... 4 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. 5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. 6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. 7...

Martin Luther "Sin boldly"): "If you are a preacher of mercy, do not preach an imaginary but the true mercy. If the mercy is true, you must therefore bear the true, not an imaginary sin. God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let...

The Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. Luther and Calvin's doctrines were doctrines of demons. Jesus said or them in Revelation 3:1, "you have a name (reputation) that you are alive, but you are dead." Whose doctrines cause death? Demons, that's who.

Again, you don't read. I don't call people on this forum heretics. But I do call some church fathers heretics, like Martin Luther and John Calvin. They didn't have the Holy Spirit. Certainly not when Calvin murdered a man for disagreeing with his heretical new doctrine, nor Luther when he wrote...

It is heresy when the clear misinterpretation causes absolute doctrines of demons that can send a person to hell. I see you couldn't follow the three historical eras in Romans 7 as you still think Paul had problems with sin. If you can read English, you can find out for yourself, but you would...

It was not an intentional sin of pleasure. AoG do you know there are 2 types of sin, or have you been taught the heresy of "sin is sin." If you have you won't understand that for 3,500 years God sees two types. BTW why did you disagree that Romans 8:2 frees us from Romans 7:14-25? Also, do you...

We westerners read the New Testament with a western mindset. But the apostles were Middle Eastern and wrote with an eastern mindset, thus the various Semitic writing styles. 1 John shows one of those styles Semitic writing style of synonymous parallels of contrasts. By the way, don't get...

Context means "keep reading." Who is Paul speaking of in Romans 8:2? It means He's received Christ and the Spirit has freed him of both sin and the law. In other words, Romans 8 has freed Paul of Romans 8:14-25 where you are quoting from. The reason you are messing up the interpretation is...

Paul said that when writing about when being under the law UNSAVED. Romans 7 is the history of the law. Verse 9 is about mankind before Moses and after Moses. ONLY Verses 5-6 is about NOW that Jesus cleanses us of SIN. And verses 14-25 is more details about life when we were UNDER the LAW...

I agree, and that is what scares me. I am not used to lying. If I had not answered at all, that is a damning answer in itself, so that was NOT an option. To keep my privacy in tact, I was forced to lie. So who's fault is that? His or mine?

You seem pleased. Hmmmmm... This is important in order to discuss these. Let me show you two scriptures by John showing the results of the two different types of sin. Tell me if you agree with these as written. Or do you want to add words to them to make them more palatable to you? 1 John 3:9...

What version of the Bible are you quoting? I don't recognize it.

AoG, Yes, but of the worst of the two types of sin, not both. If you have been taught and believe without checking for yourself that "sin is sin," you've opened yourself up to a defeatist mindset that is open to more doctrines of demons. For 3,500 years there have always been two types in...

Don't start at verse 11, but 8 for the correct timing.

It is important to get there as Jesus said, "you must be born again of the Spirit." But, it is also important that we do not do what that man did to me, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and...

I'd like to for you to also think about the person prying into my business. Matthew 18:6 “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea."

Folks, see what happens when I confessed a sin? I get called names, when this OP is in itself a prayer to God for forgiveness, and an assumption I haven't already many times. I've been forgiven, yet this is a good subject for all of us to talk about, seeing both sides - that of the victim, and...

I realized it was an old post. But when I read it I saw it as a license to sin. That's the first time I ever received that contradiction knowledge. Though I realize you don't want to engage, I hope you at least think about that. You are not the only one that has been taught that verse which...

Did you know you are now using 1 John 1:8 as a license to sin? It is no longer "reckoning" yourself free from sin. Which verse are you going to live up, or down, to. Your verse is about mankind before confessing to Christ. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Only He can take...
