    Forbidding things to happen in the Spirit

    I know a man that uses the word "command" and it works!

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I've heard these objections before, but these are definitely Christians that false teachers have gotten their claws into with the Reformationist lie that "sin is sin" and all sin is equal whether willful or unintentional. 26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I may not be a denominationalist, but I still go to church; in fact, a few. But I also make appointments with pastors to discuss their doctrines and have made friends with quite a few pastors and missionaries. I was also going to church on both days of the weekend, until the SDA church I went to...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Yes, I've changed my view, even though I don't remember saying that to you. But, I may have meant that the younger we are in the Lord, the more immature fruit we have. After almost 50 years now, I should be pretty mature in more fruit than at first. Also, it is the Lord that brings the...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Yes, I already thought of that, and have written to her twice with no response. When I was a little girl, between 5-7 my mother said to me, "why do you go over to your friends houses everyday? They don't like you. They never call you do they? Even though Proverbs 26:2 says a curse without cause...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Well, we can go by 'all scripture' and one thing we know, it is not talking about a nonChristian as some teach, for we can always pray for them to come to Jesus in the first place. But for John to tell us NOT to pray for someone who commits it, it is serious enough to find out what it is and not...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I've heard some pastors on the radio ("To Every Man An Answer"/Calvary Chapel pastors) say they don't believe in unintentional trespasses, that all sin is willful. But I include those verses that challenge those beliefs in my personal doctrines. Also, I've never heard them ever talk about "sins...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Don't you think there is a difference in character between being angry with a brother from righteous indignation, than, say, jealousy? I do. The first is not a sin at all, where the second is very immature indeed. Jesus builds our character where we can be truly happy for your brother and his...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I have been praying, and was lead to pray again today. I have also asked my church to pray for you and your niece. Keep me informed. We also prayed for your faith to know it was God when you are healed.

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    There are many Christians that still have a sin nature. I know I did for the first 30 years that I was a Christian. But Jesus said, "you MUST be born again of the Spirit. What is born again is our nature. The sin nature came from Satan when Adam willfully sinned and that cursed his descendants...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I saw you weren't understanding some of my points, so went back to one of your earlier posts where the confusion seems to have begun. Romans 1:16-17 shows a statement that few understand. From faith to faith. It has to do with the roles Jesus plays in our faith. Here is the simplest way I can...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I'm saying that the Ten Commandments everyone knows, therefore would be a willful sin; a known action of the flesh. And the list goes further than just ten. Check Galatians 5:19-21 to see if we really are a Christian or not. After our past sins are cleansed and the sin nature is now clean, we do...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    What I teach is straight from the Bible, and not church fathers, except the apostles, of course. I had to give up all denominations because they all seemed to believe false doctrines regarding sin, the number one reason Jesus came to earth. 1 John 3:5 "And He was manifested to take away our sin...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    My unhealthy pursuit? What, more ad hominems? More hypocrisy? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. And more bad doctrine? Romans 3:31 "Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law." Here again willful sinning while being under...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Numbers 15:22-29 is a sacrifice for unintentional sins. Leviticus 5:15 says “If a person commits a trespass, and sins unintentionally in regard to the holy things of the Lord, then he shall bring to the Lord as his trespass offering a ram without blemish from the flocks, with your valuation in...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Unintentional sins are NOT sins of the flesh. You still need to learn the difference. All lusts of the flesh are willful.

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    Actually, yes, it does make you sinless/righteous, as sinlessness has to do with the cleansing of all your PAST willful sins. Does it make you perfect. No, unless all of the fruit of the Spirit have been matured and Jesus has perfected you and you have forgiven everyone who has sinned against...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I just explained that in the post you are responding to. Unintentional sins are immature fruit that you commit while walking in the Spirit. Jesus acts also as the Finisher of our faith maturing the fruit of the Spirit and 1 John 1:7 is only about the cleansing of unintentional sins. Read my post...

    When Jesus "took away" your sin, did He leave behind the source, the sin nature?

    I hope @Behold would say the same thing that I did. WHAT SIN? Don't you know that 1 John 1:9 is the same as Acts 2:38 Repent,...and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." It is to become saved and not commit willful sin, only unintentional imperfections that you don't know about so can't ask...
