You are confusing the New Covenant with the Old. And what truly being born again is like, with before being born again. You're breaking my heart!!! Did Jesus die so you could freely sin your head off without condemnation? I guess you've bought into the false doctrines from the beginning of the...

Hi CC, I'll repeat myself that reading Romans 7 in CONTEXT (not yelling, just emphasizing LOL) starting at verse one shows it was to those who "know the Law" of Moses (Jews). You have posted this verse out of context again. Again, verses 14-25 are not about Christians because Christians are not...

plus @Jack Basically, here are two "works" from scripture that all can do even if disabled. 1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him. 1 John 3:3 And everyone who has this hope in Him...

When you say "we" are naturally children of the devil, you mean up until we are born again, right? :confused I agree and disagree based on the gospel. It is the POWER OF GOD. And we see it is about His all powerful creative ability that does not leave sin in our new nature because we are made...

Our sin nature we inherited from Adam with Satan's nature only has willful lawless sins unto death and is also the reason why John 15:3 says it is CLEAN. When born again of the Spirit we are cleansed of ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, not just partially, or not at all as some teach who believe we now have...

So you still think I should have told him something like it's none of your business, and let him think the worst, like hiding Jews?

What would you say during the second world war and you lived in Germany and were hiding Jews. If an SS officer came to your door and asked you if you were hiding Jews, would you lie and say NO! Would you say, yes, come right in and take them. Or how about the advice I've been given and say to...

I remember when I was married to my abusive husband (only time in my life I've been punched in the face!) and I would be in town and see a handsome, and seemingly kind man, I would shake my head real fast, rattling by brains to kill approaching thoughts in their tracks. And willfully think about...

However, the writer of this OP does not know that SIN comes in two levels. You use the term "God commands." That is the worst level of sin Scripture called "sins unto death," "presumptuous sins," "willful sins," "intentional sins," "lawlessness," and ("mortal sins" by the Roman Catholic Church)...

I wrote a post on LYING where I was wrongly accusing myself of lying and forced to sin. Come to find out I didn't sin at all, anymore than people not admitting they were hiding Jews from the Nazis in WWII, so I found peace. Is that what you are pointing your finger at? I hope not as that would...

9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. What you've probably never been taught and still don't know is that what is cleansed in us is our nature that many in the Church call our sin nature. Paul calls it the...

Is there a period at the end of that statement, or a condition? Read it again from a whole Bible. For we are to live by EVERY WORD OF GOD. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit...

Good grief, I've been on here for 3 hrs. and 20 minutes. Talk to you all later.

Our major difference is you started by saying as if it is a fact, "when we sin in the future"! Speak for yourself. I'm a Christian. Don't you know that the gospel is the POWER OF GOD in us, and His righteousness is revealed in us from faith to faith? Does God sin? I don't willfully sin. Do you...

Well, I've been abiding in Christ for so long I don't know any other way to live, and, no, I cannot lose my salvation. But that is me and my life, and the power I've received from Jesus. I cannot speak for anyone else. I don't believe in today's slant on OSAS, because you must stay ignorant...

I've been on forums where I've had to challenge someone who refused to read the Old Testament. We can still learn how God views sin from the Old Testament. Unintentional sins had a sacrifice, but intentional breaking of a commandment DID NOT. They stoned them to death. For this I turn to Numbers...

Great question. I don't know what it would be for you, but I'm in the Spirit all day long as my mind is constantly on Him, and scriptures scroll past me that I try to memorize, and opportunities to witness are given to me. But this is because in 2000 I was living in Arizona and I was driving...

By the way, where do you stand on my post #234

I don't recall he was in favor of grace being a license to sin, which is one thing that OSAS means. But I must confess, I didn't read everything he posts, as he obviously hates me as seen by his tendency to revile me. So I won't be breaking bread with him for the time being.

I wouldn't know. Last time we conversed he was unteachable so I don't doubt what you are saying. I've got him on ignore for a year until next June. Then I'll see if he has learned anything from God, or is still stuck in his own present interpretation, because he's too proud to seek the truth...
