There are Christians that teach what I call, naturalizing sin. Or making sin natural to all men. They do so by two very popular doctrines of their faith, that cannot be altered nor disputed, so that if any Christian does reject any of those two, then we are branded as heretics, even to the denying of the faith of Christ.
Those two doctrines alone make sinning a natural function of man like any other in this life. In their Christian world, there are the natural necessities of such things as drinking, eating, answering the call of nature, sleeping, and sinning. All these are so natural and therefore unavoidably necessary, so that to deny needing to have and do any of them, is like claiming to live in another world unknown to natural man on earth.
These two doctrines are: Being born with a sinful, as well as, mortal nature in the flesh. The next follows that it is therefore impossible to cease from sinning in this life, as though we don't need to go to the bathroom. They have doctrinally naturalized the call of the devil to sin, as that of the call of nature to relieve ourselves.
The natural result is a cradle to grave ideology, where sinning is made natural and inevitable for all mankind in this life. And those that believe it from the heart, do it and bring it to pass in their own lives.
By these two Christian doctrines, sinning is normalized for all mankind. Sinning is no doubt disgusting and messy, but nothing to be ashamed of, and certainly not to be condemned for. While sinning remains, sin and shame does not.
This Christian ideology, that some Christians faithfully live by, explains why their reaction to any Christian teaching from the Bible, such as believing unto righteousness and ceasing from sin, is so strange and foreign to them. It's as though it were a doctrine and preaching from another world altogether. (Which of course it is, and is called the kingdom of God in Christ Jesus.)
To those Christians of faith with sin unto death, it's like claiming to be born again with a body, that needs not to relive itself. This is why they accuse such righteous-doing Christians that cease from sinning, as somehow having arrived and already resurrected with immortal bodies from the dead. They think we are talking about not sinning, as though it were not needing to go to the bathroom anymore. And their vociferous insistence that all us Christians do sin, is with an accusation that we only hide it like self-denial bears pooping in the woods.
All any Christian needs to do, is to preach being without sin as Jesus, and walking uprightly and blameless in all things as He walked, and each of these incredulous responses and accusations will come out as naturally as declaring that we do still poop with the rest of them, but just deny it by flushing or burying it too quickly to be noticed.
