I already quoted the exact posts and made my point clear. Arguing with agitators like you is just a waste of time.

Sinless perfection is strongly implied in posts #41 and #53 (and beyond) from the link below. 1st problem with O.S.A.S. He refuses to answer my direct question with a direct YES or NO answer on whether or not he teaches sinless perfection and when I accuse him of teaching sinless perfection he...

Typical deflection. ALL false religions and cults that teach salvation by works strongly oppose OSAS which is also a RED FLAG!

I see that you still can't give us a straight forward YES or NO answer to our straight forward question. Red flag!

From beginning "have been saved through faith" (Ephesians 2:8) to end "receiving the end of your faith--the salvation of your souls" (1 Peter 1:9) salvation is by grace through faith and is not by works. "Final salvation" is a term that is typically used by those who peddle "type 2 works salvation."

I often hear those who see themselves as "holier than thou" cite Hebrews 12:14 and imply this means that if we are not "holy enough" (in of ourselves, like them) "in addition" to have placed our faith in Christ for salvation, then we won't be saved. The NASB reads - Pursue peace with all men...

Yes indeed they can. 1 John 2:1 - My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

Does the cat have his tongue? Why can't Michiah-Imla give you and I a straight forward YES or NO answer to this straight forward question? I have run across half a dozen or so others over the years on various Christian forum sites who have claimed to live a sinless life 100% of the time after...

See my conversation with Michiah-Imla starting in post #39 from the link below. 1st problem with O.S.A.S. I have also run across half a dozen or so others over the years on various Christian forum sites who have claimed to live a sinless life 100% of the time after their alleged conversions...

To walk as Jesus walked is what we ought to do/strive to do (Jesus walked in love) yet this still does not support sinless perfection of the flesh. Are you implying the greater works in John 14:12 is sinless perfection? o_O Do you attend a church that teaches we can reach entire sanctification...

Very informative OP! I'm dealing with someone right now who is promoting sinless perfection on this forum. See post #41 from the link below: 1st problem with O.S.A.S.

It's one thing to say that Christ takes away our sins (and He does take away the sins of born again believers) but that does not mean that we live a sinless, without fault or defect, flawless, absolute perfect life 100% of the time (exactly as Jesus lived) from that point forward. You truly are...

CONTINUED... In regards to Hebrews 10:26, to "sin willfully" in the Greek carries the idea of deliberate intention that is habitual, which stems from rejecting Christ deliberately. This is continuous action, a matter of practice. Now we don't walk along our daily life and "accidentally" fall...

'Descriptive' of genuine believers. Even though this shallow ground hearer in Luke 8:13 is said to have "believed," yet he is never said to have been "saved." How do we know that the shallow ground hearer was never actually "saved"? Allow me to explain. First, his heart condition is contrasted...

So you do claim to have no sin (present tense) are deceiving yourself and the truth is not in you. (1 John 1:8) This means you are suffering from a terminal case of self righteousness. Not a good position to be in! True Christians trust in Jesus Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of their...

1 John 3:8 - the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of...

True. There are genuine Christians and there are "nominal" Christians. There are genuine believers and there are make believers.

1 John 5:11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that...

Can you find a verse in the Bible that unequivocally says a really "saved" person really "lost their salvation?" I can't find that verse. Now there are verses in the Bible that "on the surface" appear to teach the loss of salvation and works-salvationists are very fond of citing such verses, yet...

Don't look for things to improve under this current administration. Only look for crime and inflation to continue to rise, along with the further moral decay to penetrate our schools and colleges. It's no wonder people are flipping out! What a God-less nation we have become!
