God has already "mortified" our flesh by crucifying the old man. We just have to walk in the Spirit. Romans 6:6-7. I know you don't want to believe that, and instead believe Jesus was a failure. You believe what tickles your ears, J. Look what you didn't hightlight: If then you were raised...

J, don't think on lust, obey Isaiah 26:3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. Start memorizing verses of the Truth about Jesus taking away our sin (even the source of sin, the carnal flesh (nature), and not listening to famous teachers for...

Yes, J, the teachings of man seem right to them. That is why you shouldn't be following them. I hear God's voice very clearly, and only teach what He tells me to teach. It is the truth.

I too couldn't say I was perfect either, but in Paul's last letter before death (as where I am now)2 Timothy 4: he said I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that...

Yes, are you? Revelation 22:11

Then why quote Spurgeon as if what he said was the truth, and Peter quoted Jesus saying "Be holy, as I am holy" is impossible? If you were actually following Christ, the words of man wouldn't mean so much to you for an excuse to not be holy. I call that theology defeatism.

Then you have no idea how come you can see yourself naked.

It would be the closest to 1 John 3:23, which would be Love God with all your mind, soul and body, and love your neighbor as yourself. The sign of the New Covenant is the Cup of the New Covenant, representing the blood of the Creator.

Looks like you are still following man.

No. Neither Calvinism's 5 points, nor Arminianism are totally correct. And I am not a dispensationalist either. I am a student of the Bible, a child of God. J, I edited my last post #91 - go back and read the rest of the verses. Look at them and see how they differ from what you have been...

Look at Romans 7 and 8 again. Here are verses you need for context. Romans 7: 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. 6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held...

That is asking a question to a question.

I guess exasperation that you haven't gone back to Romans 7 and read it in context.

Jesus came to free us from the works of the devil - sin and eternal death. So are you free or not? Why ask me - ask yourself.

Because the scriptures YOU are quoting are about being under the old law. Don't you know that? So if you believe they are for you and me, then you must believe you are under the old covenant law.

J, This is where you do not understand the power of Grace. By the way, what do you believe the grace of God does for us? Romans 6:6-7 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For he who...

Are you under the law, The Ten Commandments?

Robert, it would take a book to answer these questions. It looks like I would have to explain every verse in the Bible that you understand incorrectly.

I wrote a response to your #54 which couldn't show up in mine, so I deleted mine. Yours had errors

According to how God sees us as His children, if we live up to the knowledge we have Philippians 3:16, as we walk in the light 1 John 1:7, then the blood of Jesus cleanses us of the unintentional sins we may commit unknowingly.
