The blood of Jesus is much more powerful than that. You believe it is very weak indeed if you don't know that the blood of Jesus takes away all desire to sin in the present and the future, making it have nothing major to forgive at all. Did Christ sin while on earth? That is how He made us to...

I'll say! :D

I went to church with 2nd Chapter of Acts. We all loved them.

Being delivered from the presence of sin in our nature is called being born again. That doesn't happen after we die, but now. It is receiving the Holy Spirit of God inside of us, writing His laws onto our new nature, to naturally want to do His will.

Believe what? That there is such a thing as being born again with a new nature that hates sin, and loves righteousness. Instead of the carnal nature that loves sin, and hates laws.

Yes, it is actually "Love God and Do as You will." Do as your nature tells you to do; if born again, do as your new nature tells you. Do what comes naturally. If not, well, you don't love God.

What it shows is after death we don't get holier as you implied.

Revelation 22:11 shows us that whatever state we are when we die, that is how we shall remain. We won't get better after death.

I already showed you that Charis means also "divine power."

It is written to his congregation. Do you honestly believe everyone in church is a believer before they walk in the door?

What did Augustine mean when he said: "Love God, and do as you like." If you said that statement, what would you mean?

Another misinterpreted verse. 1 John 1:8 is the same as when Paul said "for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." In other words, we are all BORN with a sin nature. BUT when you come to Christ confessing your sin, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us...

I know what he meant. You are the one who was quoting him. Just wonder if you know what he meant.

I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. What do you believe grace means.

What did Augustine mean by his statement: Love God and live as you like?

What I believe is that all desire to sin was immediately taken from me when I became baptized in His Spirit and born again. BUT, knowledge is important as you said. But it is our heart that matters. A true Christian WILL always live up to the knowledge we have, and keep growing in sinlessness as...

I'll accept the first answer, but you don't understand that the blood of Jesus is more powerful than the blood of bulls and goats what only covers sin. In other words, you don't recognize what it means to be born again of the Spirit of God.

Of course there is a process. It is called glorification - becoming more and more like Christ. It is not a process of becoming sinless, but a process of becoming mature in the fruit of the Spirit and is found in 2 Peter 1:5-11.

Yes, the major difference in what I believe and what people like Blood Bought and Christophany believes has to do with the meaning of grace. All false doctrines believe it is unmerited favor, and I believe it is being given divine power. I believe you do too, sis. Otherwise you couldn't resist...

Actually you do not believe that verse, at least, not the right interpretation of that verse. The gift of God is not to be able to sin unconditionally, but the power of the Holy Spirit to live according to the Spirit and not the flesh.
