    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Who says they do not already have the fear of God in them. They already came to faith knowing they’re just condemnation. That should be fear enough. What do you do about your besetting sin?

    How to be free from sin part 1

    the jews used the law. And thought they were ok. Jesus on the sermon on the mount showed how futile the law is and seeking it to see how righteous we are the law says blank But I tell you blank The law also caused sin to increase. because what flesh likes to be told what to do. It is by...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    In HIM is no sin. You are not him You better not go to Christ and think you have no sin, when you have much sin.. You can deny you sin all you want. it will not make it true. John said, if we claim we have no sin, we are deceived. You want to be deceived like a few others here. feel free.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    what about the person who struggles.. Their bessetting sin. the sin they do not want to do. but they keep falling back to. do we condemn this person as lost? Or do we stand by this person..

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    sadly, and as you witness here in this very chatroom. If we go around confessing our sin, and acknowledging it. We are seeing as loving our sin and denying the power of God.

    How to be free from sin part 1

    If we look to the law for what sin is. we will miss the point of what sin really is SIn is anything done which is not done in the love of God or the love of others.. if we want to be free from sin. 1. Receive Gods love (in salvation) 2. Take Gods love and share that love with others. this...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    if we hide our sins and deny them, we most likely will be hardened by them, and think they are not really sins. and we will not find healing. we have to be open. Paul said (I believe) confess our sins to one another for healing,,I wonder if this is why many Christians are so judgmental. Because...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    I see it as if we think we are sinless we deceive ourselves. We all have issues. We need to confess those issues to those God put in our lives. and to God. so many churches have become so focused on sin, they can't confess it for fear of being outcast. or judged.. If a church is sitting there...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    yes. Remember the one. who said he obeyed the law from birth. Jesus said your lacking one thing. go sell all you have. Jesus was trying to show him he had not obeyed the law.. But the guy did nto get it. and went away said. Because he did not keep the first commandment.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Sadly, This is a major issue in the church. The church has not really strayed that far from where Israel was in the time of Christ. It thinks it is special. it has arrived. Thank God I am not like the sinner (even though you are) the pride of many who call itself the church is outlandish. and...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Being perfect to me is being without sin. It is also the requirment that God gave for eternal life by our own works. So what I mean is us being perfect to show us we are his. that is a hard request. Be perfect as he is perfect? Jesus told the Pharisees what they had to do if they wanted to...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    but can anyone be perfect? If our perfection is the only proof that we have achieved the Hier calling and are saved. Then we are in serious trouble.
