Sin is transgression of the law (1John 3:4). And whatever the law says it says to those UNDER IT (Romans 3:19). But Christians are not under the law (Romans 8:2, Romans 10:4, Galatians 5:18) hence we cannot be charged with this sin. Sin is unrighteousness (1John 5:17). But for Christians our...

Hi Iforrest, Unrighteousness is sin, 1John 5:17 Transgression of the law is sin, 1John 3:4. Unbelief in Jesus is the sin the world is convicted of, John 16:9. Sin cannot be charged (Rom 8:33, 1John 3:9, 1Pet 4:1) against believers as we're in Christ (Col 3:3, Gal 2:20) and in him there is no...

Amen. Good points. All supported by Jesus in John 16:9 where he says that the sin the world is convicted of is unbelief in him. Note also 1Cor 6:15-18 confirming how sin cannot be charged against believers. Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members...

Hi ATP, I agree that Heb 10:26 refers to non-believers. I also agree with your scripture quotes above that Christians cannot sin. I see these non-believers that Heb 10:26 refers to, being described also in Heb 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the...

As I've already said to you before, the law is good, just and holy, Rom 7:12. I'm left wondering whether you are just forgetful about what I've said to you in previous debates or whether you are deliberately misrepresenting me in an attempt to present your error doctrine in a positive light...

Because braklite introduced the law with it's Sabbath keeping under this topic. I do know what sin is and I have explained to you in previous debates, confirming with scriptures, why sin does not apply to Christians. I've also explained how Christians establish the law also. You see...

I see you just ignore any scripture that contradicts your doctrine of righteousness by works of the law. Again I'll quote 2Cor 3:7-11 for you. But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones (the 10 commandments) , was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not...

Here's the 10 commandments that you wrongly determine righteousness by. 2Cor 3:7-11 7 But if the ministration of death, WRITTEN AND ENGRAVEN IN STONES was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to...

And Christians do establish the law. We accept that the law is good, just and holy, Rom 7:12. And we admitted that we were deserving of death for failing to obey the law perfectly, as it requires, James 2:10. And thus we humbled ourselves and submitted to God's righteousness. We accepted God's...

Hi brakelite, Whilst I share the same concern about the stupidity of the UN and it's attack on freedom of speech (to satisfy deluded Muslim countries, which make up the largest voting block in the UN), I disagree with your fear of the Pope and Sunday laws. I attended Adventist meetings 30...

True, the flesh seeks to rule and lead us away from God. Thus we see in scripture (e.g Rom 10:3) that the flesh is not willing to submit to God's righteousness and instead it seeks to establish it's own righteousness. Is it any wonder we see so many warnings in scripture about not turning back...

I'm working with my iPad at the moment which is problematic and time consuming to cut paste scriptures, etc. hence I'll just quote scripture references for now. 1John 5: 5 tells us that we overcome when we believe on Jesus. That is we're an overcomer the same day as when we received Jesus...

The writings you look for as proof are in the Bible. As for any subsequent believers in the centuries following, I haven't searched for any. We all know that there are many who have written their various understandings of the Bible throughout the centuries. I hope your not saying we are to...

Again you are assuming how few there are who share the same understanding as I. I just told you of the ones that I'm aware of. I'll find the links for the 2 I found so far in the USA and post them later as I'm at work now and have limited time. But I'm sure you must realize that the truth is...

The belittling tactic you used that I was referring to was your point about there being so few of us with this understanding. That is no point whatsoever, yet you use it. According to your logic then, the Catholics must be right as they're the largest church. And according to your logic...

Hi Axehead, I didn't realize you joined 3 of the same forums as I did. If your visiting any others the name I settled on is "haz". The names "Barny" and Haz27" were names from my early forays into forums. BTW, what physical fornication do you refer to? 1John 3:6-9 tells us that Christians...

Christians are spiritual. Thus we look towards entering into God's rest, the spiritual Sabbath (not a physical day). Heb 4:11 11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience

Hi brakelite, Yes, you are correct I have a different name at another forum. From memory that forum might have been one of the first I registered with, but since then I had settled on the name Haz, which I have registered with on various other forums. If you recall from our previous debates I...

Consider that we Christians are spiritual. We are also the true Jews. Rom 2:28,29 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not...

Rom 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Because legalist are under the law then they will be found guilty before God. James 2:10 even describes them as...
