Lets look at some verses.

1.) 2 Corinthians 5:19.. " That God was IN Christ, reconciling the WORLD (all people) unto himself, NOT charging their SINS to them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."

This is one of the greatest verses ever written in the word of God.
Its Paul teaching.... that based on Christ's Sacrifice on THE CROSS, .. everyone's sin is not charged to them, because Christ has died for the sin of the World.

So, if that is true, and it is absolutely the Truth, then why isn't everyone saved and going to heaven?
Its because this Sacrifice, that is "The Gift of Salvation", this "reconciliation" has to be applied per person.
And God only applies it when you BELIEVE in Jesus.
That is the CONDITION to RECEIVE the Gift of Salvation and The Gift of Righteousness.
John 3:16

"The work of God is that you believe in Jesus, whom God sent".
John 6:29

And when you do, then God no longer charges you with sin, because Christ has been judged to DEATH for them ALL.
Christ is the "one time eternal sacrifice for SIN".
And a minister like me, is given this message of reconciliation to give to you.
Im to preach it, teach it, share it, live it.
And notice that this redemption that God has created through Christ, is accomplished 2000 yrs ago, on THE CROSS.
So, Paul defines the giving of this "message of reconciliation" as : "the preaching of the Cross".

Now look at Romans 4:8 : ""Blessed is the person to whom the Lord God will not Charge sin""

See that ? = BELIEVE IT.
And....Who is that blessed person?
That is the born again. = All.
So, when you are born again, then the "message of reconciliation", has been BELIEVED, and God has dealt with all your sin, and given you the new birth.
Why does God not charge your sin to you if you are born again?
Its because He has already judged JESUS on the Cross to DEATH= for them ALL.

Welcome to SALVATION.

Now,
How do the anti-cross heretics try to ruin Paul's Gospel of God's Amazing Grace?
What they do, is they try to get you caught in the false belief that ALL your sin being dealt with by Christ on The Cross, is not the case. And they want you to lose Faith in Christ and start confessing sin so that your faith in Christ to keep you saved, is lost.
You're faith become broken. You become "fallen from Grace". Paul says that these deceivers have "bewitched" you out of the true understanding of God's mercy.
These deceivers want you trying to keep yourself saved, by confessing.
And you just read verses that clearly taught you that SIN is not charged ever again to the born again.

So, if you are born again, and are confessing what is God is not holding against you, then you have been deceived by a deceiver.
This can be your parents. This can be your brothers and sisters. This can be your Church or your Pope or your favorite TV preacher. This can be many "christian" Forum members.
Jesus said that the enemies (of your faith), can be found in your own house. Matthew 10:36

A Deceiver will tell you that 1 John 1:9, is for you.
Its not.
They will try to convince you that you are supposed to confess every sin to get them forgiven, and this way you try to STAY SAVED.

Paul however, just told you that God was in Christ not charging you with your sin.... if you are born again.

Reader.....You have to learn to BELIEVE that Salvation is not based on YOU.
You have to get your heart established with God's Grace, or the deceivers will have your faith totally destroyed by their cultish demonic teaching.
Hebrews 13:9

YOUR SALVATION IS ONLY based on GOD and CHRIST and The CROSS..
And once God has given you the "reconciliation".. then all your sin, as Paul's verses teach, are on Christ and never on you again.
This is why the born again = meet God after you die as your FATHER, and not as Judge.
Its only the unbelievers who meet God as Judge.
John 3:36

Listen carefully..

You dont confess sin to be re-forgiven or re-saved, when God does not charge you with sin after you are born again.

2 Corinthians 5:19
Romans 4:8

So...Do not listen to deceivers who would have you to be worried and confused, with your faith in Christ destroyed, believing that God has not dealt with all your sin and you have to do it to try to stay saved.
Do not listen to these Dark Lights.

Read: 1 John 3:9.
This is the verse for the born again believer. ... Whereas 1 John 1:9 is for the unbeliever = John 3:36.

One more....

If you commit a work of the flesh.. then you did. And you will naturally want to talk to God about it.
So, you do this.. You TALK to God about it, and then you THANK GOD for Jesus who has already taken care of that work of the flesh for you, 2000 yrs ago on The Cross.
If you will begin to do this.....You will discover that when you stop trying to confess what God does not charge you with, and begin to understand what as i have shown you in this Thread, then you will find that your issues with your flesh become less and less, and your heart will love God more and more.
You will come to the place of "as many as be perfect" Paul teaches, and your focus on sin will not be a part of your Christianity any longer, as that is a large part of gaining the "renewed mind".

The sins that are no longer charged to a person by God are those committed before believing the gospel.

How do the anti-cross heretics try to ruin Paul's Gospel of God's Amazing Grace?

Pray tell…

they try to get you caught in the false belief that ALL your sin being dealt with by Christ on The Cross, is not the case

You are confused.

“We” try to teach you what the Bible says: that any sin after conversion is detrimental to your salvation (Hebrews 10:26-29; Hebrews 6:4-6; 2 Peter 2:20; Romans 11:20-22; Colossians 1:23).

These deceivers want you trying to keep yourself saved, by confessing.

Folks, who is the deceiver? Peter or @Behold ?

“…brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall” (2 Peter 1:10).

…re-forgiven or re-saved

There is no “re-forgiveness” or “re-salvation”.

“Do not be deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap. For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” (Galatians 6:7-8)

There is no verse in the bible that says that only the sins committed before a person is born again, are redeeemed.
So, that is a CULT teaching, whereby they take a verse in 1 John, and try to rewrite the finished work of Jesus on the Cross as..."Salvation is completed by the person's confession".

A Catholic will love your theology, Michiah-Imla.
The NT rejects it.

Also, Peter said, make your calling sure..
This is not..>"try not to lose your salvation"., as the cults teach it.
This is..."make sure you are in THE FAITH"..... and not "fallen from Grace".
How do you know you are in "THE Faith". 2 Corinthians 13:5 ?
A person who is in "the Faith", does not believe they can lose their Salvation.

“…he was purged from his old sins.” (2 Peter 1:9)

So, that is a CULT teaching

It’s a biblical teaching.

A person who is in "the Faith", does not believe they can lose their Salvation.

“…Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.” (Romans 11:20-21)

Do not be highminded @Behold

Do not be highminded.

“…he was purged from his old sins.” (2 Peter 1:9)

Yes, purged from the old sin, and now "made righteous", having become "the righteousness of God, in Christ".

See that? The person who is born again, has been purged from their old sin, its gone, and now as a 'new Creation in Christ", they are become "the righteousness of God, in Christ".
This is why God does not charge sin to them... Romans 4:8.
God does not Charge sin to Righteousness, and the born again have been made Righteous.
Their body is DEAD because of sin, and their mind is not related to the born again. It has to be renewed.
So, God has fully redeemed them, and has recreated them to be "the righteousness of God".
This is to become a SON of God. A Son of God, has become "ONE with God"., and in God there is no sin found.
The Son of God has become "IN CHRIST" and in Christ there is no sin found in Christ.
THe Son of God, is "seated in Heavenly places" and there is no sin found there.

The Son/Daughter of God, born again. has become... "As JESUS IS.....so are the BORN AGAIN.... in this WORLD".

= as JESUS IS...... there is no sin found there, and all the born again exist "as JESUS IS">....having been born again "in Christ".

Correct.

And they remain sinless in obedience:

“Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin…” (1 John 3:9)

“Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.” (Romans 6:18)

Their body is DEAD because of sin

Moreover, because they RECKON their old man dead.

“Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:11)

You posted half of the verse, to try to hide the rest of the verse, as the rest of the verse denies your self saving LEGALISM.

Post the rest of the verse., ,Its says..."""for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

"He CANNOT SIN BECAUSE He is : BORN OF GOD"..

See that?
That is GOD making the born again Righteous.. based on "Jesus became SIN".
So....
That is not your LEGALISTIC self effort trying to stay saved.
Believe it.

And you are not doing that, and that is why you keep trying to prove the deception that the OLD DEAD MAN, needs to confess, and try to stay saved.

Listen.
the "MADE RIGHTEOUS"... "New Creation in Christ" is the SON OF GOD.

Not the "old man of Sin" that you keep worrying about that you believe needs to "confess".

You need to REALIZE THIS, ASAP.

We are going around in circles…

I already addressed that.

You’re apply being “righteous” as a label that a Christian wears regardless of his acts of sin. That’s error.

You are the circle. Its in your Reasoning

You want to believe that the OLD MAN of SIN, that is DEAD, needs to be living in 1 John 1:9.

That is your RELIGION. = see your POSTS for an UPDATE.

So, You need to put that LEGALISM in the dumpster and instead get the revelation that God does not charge SIN to the Born again.
Ever again.
Why?
Because JESUS has paid for them all, as the "one time eternal sacrifice for SIN".. Not some.. Not 3 or 4, and Not the 1200 you forgot to confess.

Let me ask you a question.

Have you ever met a deceived religious person, who reads... " " That God was IN Christ, reconciling the WORLD (all people) unto himself, NOT charging their SINS to them;""

"Not charging their sins to them".....
"Not charging their sins to them".....
"Not charging their sins to them".....
"Not charging their sins to them".....

And this deceived religious person, keeps posting that those who are in Christ need to confess sin"?

Ive met thousands of these deceivers.
Literally.
Ive met at least 20 on THIS forum.

“Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.” (Matthew 5:17)

“Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.” (Romans 3:31)

What wacky heresy are you promoting here?

Since you despise LEGALISM so much (what nut job got you this way), ANARCHISM must be the way to go since I NEVER hear anyone on your side even utter it. You all just say LEGALISM, LEGALISM, LEGALISM like a bunch of parrots.

Nothing in the ENTIRE Bible talks so despitefully about LEGALISM like you guys do! And when Paul spoke against those going back to the law he plainly referred to its outward ceremonial acts (I.e. circumcision and calendar observances).

Boy what error you have been fed!

I appreciate that you can cut and paste someone else's teaching.
Many here are like you.

But Here is the Thing.

"The Law is the power of Sin".
"Christ is the END of the Law, for RIGHTEOUSNESS".
"Christ has delivered us from the CURSE OF THE LAW.
" You are not UNDER THE LAW, but under Grace"...= if you are born again.

He is not charging their OLD SINS!!!

Can’t you hear?!

“For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins” (Hebrews 10:26)

Get that?!

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DISCUSSION AT HAND!


Deceivers, always try to damn the born again with a few verses in HEBREWS that are written to unsaved Jews.
So, if they are smart, and honest, they will discover that Paul is teaching again in Acts 28 to the same unsaved "willfully" sinning Jews, that He was preaching to in Hebrews 10:26.

Just open a BIBLE.

See, its all about being a real student of the word, vs, just posting cult theology.
So, when you are ready, you just need to read what ive shown you.
I dont think you are ready yet., but im ready to let you figure it out.
