    Sin Nature

    We are to obey our conscience where God writes His laws. It is easy not to sin when you don't have any desire to. But if your conscience is still dead you will have a desire to sin.

    Made of Show of Them Openly

    Rev. 12 7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who...

    Sin Nature

    We all must work out our own salvation. If you want to SAY you have newness of life while behaving as a sinner, you'll find out the hard way. John is talking about the difference between WALKING THE WALK, and TALKING THE TALK - but lying like you are. You are NOT walking in newness of life if...

    Sin Nature

    Don't play ignorant. It is plain as day. The key word in verse 8 is SAY. See how John uses the word in chapter two. Don't believe that God doesn't do what He says. When he cleanses us of all sin after we confess our sins, how much sin is left? 4 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep...

    Sin Nature

    Because you 'agreed' to this false belief of the devil. "You will never become sinless and perfect in this life. You are clothed in His righteousness. You are still a sinner."

    Sin Nature

    Anyone who brags they will sin until the day they die is trusting in the author of sin, the devil, and not who takes sin away, Jesus.

    Born again = No Sin

    @Behold I need to do some errands. Talk to you later. Go take a much needed nap!

    Born again = No Sin

    @Behold Or, with Jesus IN you would you not take it in the first place, because your conscience won't let you?

    Born again = No Sin

    This can be taken one of two says, and I still don't know if your believe the truth or a perversion, so please be clear. If as a born again believer, you take a pen from work, is that sin, or no sin?

    Born again = No Sin

    Then we agree, I hope. But when you say this I still wonder if you are seeing that to be IN CHRIST and HE IN US He shines through and controls our actions, our behavior. What I've often thought you meant was that our behavior doesn't matter because we have an invisibility cloak of Jesus over...

    Born again = No Sin

    Well, gifts are not earned, so you get what you need for the office He gives us. He gave me the Office of Teacher in 2000. But I DO hate sin. I love what God loves, and hate what God loves because we are One. We MUST abide IN Jesus and He IN us. This relationship shines through our behavior. If...

    Born again = No Sin

    We may have two different definitions of being born again. Yours seems to be the opposite of mine. If your born again nature still sins, it is not born again. That has to do with behavior. Mine is from first repenting of your weakness towards sin, THEN receiving the Holy Spirit to EMPOWER us to...

    Born again = No Sin

    Jesus only needs to take away our past sins, because that includes the source, our sin nature. So it is ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS. With the Spirit we DON'T SIN IN THE PRESENT AND FUTURE. So saying Jesus forgives our future sins makes God the author of sin, instead of the preventer of future sins.

    Born again = No Sin

    I CAN speak in tongues, but I rarely do. I have a much higher gift of hearing God's voice (Word of Wisdom, Word of Knowledge and Prophecy). Tongues is NOT THE EVIDENCE of being filled with the Spirit. But we MUST be filled with the Spirit to be born again! The EVIDENCE of being filled with the...

    Born again = No Sin

    That was the Jews, and those who rejected Jesus but kept the commandments were not saved. Only before Jesus was crucified would they have been saved if they were looking forward to the coming Messiah. Scripturally, that is called keeping the letter of the Law. by willpower. It has no power of...

    Born again = No Sin

    I agree that those denominations who teach that catch phrase believe all their past, present and future sins are already forgiven. That is not in the Bible. Peter says only our past sins are forgiven, THEN we are given the power of the Holy Spirit to sin no more. There is a test, 1 John...

    Born again = No Sin

    How do you know it is the Holy Ghost if you never experienced receiving Him? By faith? There is a major difference between just you, and when He fills us. Don't knock being filled with the Holy Spirit which is all that Charismatic means (it is not a denomination like Pentecostal is)

    Born again = No Sin

    Paul is only talking about the COVENANT. That was ONLY The Ten Commandments. The rest are in three categories, general for mankind, ceremonial including sacrificial all fulfilled in Christ, as were also the laws on clean and unclean meats. Clean meats represented God's people. Unclean meats...

    Born again = No Sin

    I thought the scriptures I gave you were clear. But evidently you didn't grasp that you are talking about the Ten Commandments, and I AM NOT! There is a difference between the Law by Moses and the eternal laws that are written on our hearts as prophesied for the NEW COVENANT that must be obeyed...

    Born again = No Sin

    Jesus accomplished more than you realize. We not only died with Him on the cross, but are also resurrected with Him from the tomb to be sinless children of God by His power. NOT OUR OWN POWER. The power of the Spirit is the whole reason why it is necessary to be born again! "For I am not ashamed...
