It's not all about how much you read but how much are you digesting what you read and how are you applying it in the Christian life. When I was a new believer, I read the Old Testament twice and the New Testament eight times in the first year as a new Christian. I was very hungry for the word...

There is no harm in motivating each other and you dish out plenty of attacks yourself. Some days I read the Bible more than other days, depending on my schedule and I strive to keep up with reading the entire Bible in a year.

Being born again does not mean that we are incapable of ever sinning again at all, but that will become a reality once we receive our glorified bodies. See post #312 from the link below: https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/romans-6-22.53793/page-16#post-1517540

You keep bragging and I'll keep reading.

Never said we should never strive for it. Just saying that none of us are sinless 100% of the time. (1 John 1:8-10)

1 Corinthians 2:11 - For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have...

Ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Timothy 3:7)

So according to you, ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) EXCEPT for Job?

You can read the Bible 24/7 but that does not necessarily mean that you properly interpret scripture.

As I already explained, Job had admitted his sinfulness. (Job 7:21; 13:26) You need to properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching your conclusion on doctrine. You do too much cherry picking.

You can read the Bible 24/7 but that does not necessarily mean you correctly interpret scripture.

So now you are saying that Job sinned, but it was just not yet imputed? :rolleyes: Just admit that mankind (regardless of which dispensation they lived in) are not sinless, 100% of the time.

That last statement is the epitome of IRONY.

Being born again does not mean sinless perfection of the flesh. That comes after we receive our glorified bodies.

Still does not mean that Job never sinned at all. (Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 3:23)

Perfect and upright still does not mean that Job was sinless, 100% of the time. (Ecclesiates 7:20; Romans 3:23)

1 Peter 1:23 - "having been" born again.. is past tense with ongoing present results. Romans 5:1 - "..having been" justified by faith.. is also present tense with ongoing present results. 1 John 3:10 - No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin...

Job was still not sinless, without fault or defect, flawless, 100% of the time and neither is anyone else (Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 3:23) except for Jesus Christ. (Hebrews 4:15) Job had admitted his sinfulness. (Job 7:21; 13:26) Those who believe they live a sinless, without fault or defect...

We are "born again" in this life.

To be born again (John 3:3) means to be born from above, to be spiritually reborn. When we are born again, the Holy Spirit begets new life and through the great and precious promises listed in (2 Peter 1:1-3), we may be "partakers of the divine nature." (2 Peter 1:4) The new birth is brought to...
