No, there are sins that are NOT willful. Will means intention. Wits are by your mind. Trespasses are unintentional sins unwittingly committed. That is Scripture, not quotes of false teachers.

These chapters are about the law. 21 But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; 23 for all have sinned...

Are you ready for some advanced theology? All the apostles were Jews and wrote with Hebrew writing styles. One of those styles is called contrasts. That is what John uses in 1 John 1 and 1 John 3. Here is the part of 1 John 1:5-10 that are contrasts. 5 God is light 6 If we walk in darkness 7 If...

To be clear and to repeat myself. When we walk in the Spirit we are NOT IN THE FLESH. It is the opposite of Hyper-grace. And now that Jesus has freed us from sin, so that we can be sinless, we can go on to perfection through these steps in 2 Peter 1: 5 But also for this very reason, giving...

Romans 3:24-25 is talking about sins committed by His people in the Old Testament like David. However, 2 Peter 1:9 talks about our past sins being forgiven. No where does it say a Christian's present and future sins are forgiven. We are not to commit them in the first place, so no need to repent...

Which is a Christian: 1 John 1:8 and 10 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. or 1 John 3:9 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in...

I'm not putting any words in your mouth that you haven't already said. You basically said trying to be perfect is of the devil. But that is a command of Jesus, so how can it be of the devil? I don't agree with the grace movement as it is either, because of their mistaken definition of grace. It...

That is my point too. But you are not understanding what I said. I did not say that casting out demons were acts of unrighteousness. No. They are righteousness. Matthew is saying that even if you did all these wonderful things, but willfully commit sins of lawlessness then you ARE lawless. Jesus...

Your common belief that 1 John 1:8 and 10 is a Christian is out of context and untrue. It goes along with what Paul taught. BEFORE CHRIST all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. No one is born without sin, so we all need to repent and accept Christ. That is 1 John 1:9 - how to...

Don't you know that being a child of God is partaking of the divine nature? If a Christian doesn't sin, that is NOT of Satan. What a thing to say?

No, Davy, even though Christians cast out demons and can prophesy, if they commit willful sin then what good does all their works of righteous do them? They returned to their own vomit. Even though the gifts of God are irrevocable, you can still fall off the path to salvation and that is when...

I see "hyper-grace" as having no power over sin, so we commit them and they are automatically forgiven as soon as we commit them. HERESY. No longer repenting isn't hyper-grace. Once you've repented and Jesus has forgiven you of your past sins, He also takes care of future sins by giving us a...

But the Bible says we are cleansed of our old sins 2 Peter 1:9. No where does an apostle teach a Christian will commit willful sins once cleansed of the desire to commit them. That means present and future willful sins are not cleansed. Read Hebrews 10:26-31. Of course, if someone claiming to be...

No, because I know the truth. But that is what marksman believes. What about you? Do you believe Paul's comment to Timothy is law, that a woman cannot teach a man, period?

How do you commit willful sin in the first place? And you believe willful sin is already forgiven?

It is the doctrine that includes automatic forgiveness of present and future sins. That person has no power to not commit those sins, when a true Christian would. 2 Peter 1:9 says our old sins have been forgiven, not future ones that we have been given power not to commit. Do you believe the...

One thing I found in Scripture that I thought was scary, was that for a Christian who has already repented and filled with the Spirit, if we willfully sin afterwards, God may not always accept repentance. Simon the Sorcerer. 22 Repent therefore of this your wickedness, and pray God if perhaps...

There is kill, and there is murder. What are you saying? Accidentally, or on purpose?

The difference is Jesus is NOT our Advocate for willful sins of lawlessness, only for unintentional trespasses. Reformed believe His blood cleanses us from adultery, murder, etc. which ARE willful sins of lawlessness. That is false but that is what Martin Luther taught! Luther - "even if we were...
