Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

Jesus said the Holy Ghost would lead us in to ALL Truth (John 16:13),
and Jesus said God's Word IS Truth (John 17:17)

This is how we know the OSAS teachers are false teachers cause... they don't accept ALL Truth.

That's because they suffer from acute Cherry Pickers Syndrome! :stageright:
  • 1 Corinthians 2:7-16
    But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written:
    "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
    Nor have entered into the heart of man
    The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."
    But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightlyjudged by no one. For "who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
  • John 14:26
    But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
  • John 16:13
    However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
  • Ephesians 3:16-19
    that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
  • 2 Timothy 1:6-7
    Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
  • Isaiah 11:2
    The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him,
    The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
    The Spirit of counsel and might,
    The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.

  • Matthew 10:20
    for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

There have been many who were executed for their faith in ancient times as well as in more modern history.
Jehovah’s Witnesses have a special place in the Holocaust Museum because they refused to heil Hitler or to participate in his bloodshed. Unlike the Catholic church who supported Hitler, my brothers and sisters went to their deaths with courage and a firm faith…..these paid with their lives but were “faithful unto death”.

The great tribulation will be worse than anything mankind has ever experienced before…..it is the final showdown between God and the devil, with the forces of evil pitted against one another. The Bible tells us who will then gain the victory, with God’s seemingly defenseless people putting their full faith in his saving power.

Consider what Jehovah instructed his people to do when ancient Babylon was attacked: “Go, my people, enteryour inner rooms, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself for a brief moment until the wrath has passed by.” (Isaiah 26:20) It seems that those words also apply to us who will face the great tribulation.

God’s people are not divided in the churches of Christendom, but have separated themselves from that disunited excuse for Christianity. (Rev 18:4-5) They are one in unity with the whole brotherhood because God’s spirit unites his people rather than dividing them…..it isn’t God who speaks with a forked tongue.

It was always in Christendom from its beginnings…..the corruption of Christianity is nothing recent….as soon as the apostles had passed away, satan began his infiltration, using weak minded and greedy men driven by lust for wealth and power…..so by the time of Constantine, “Christianity” had become a weak and unrecognizable shadow of its former self…..when Jesus comes to judge the world, he will reject those false Christians as those he “NEVER KNEW”….(Matthew 7:21-23) ”NEVER“ means “not ever”…..he has never recognized Christendom as his domain….he has never set foot in it.

Indeed, so we need to find those who worship God in unity (1 Cor1:10) and feed at the table of the ones appointed by Jesus to “feed”, guide and direct his disciples through these difficult “last days”. (Matt 24:45; 2 Tim 3:1-5)

There are only two tables at which to “feed”….
”You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of demons; you cannot be partaking of “the table of Jehovah” and the table of demons.” (1 Cor 10:21)

We have to know where our beliefs come from….were they invented or adopted by Christendom?….or do they come straight from the complete word of God? He knows who the sincere seekers are…those who will accept an uncomfortable truth over a comfortable lie promoted by the deceiver. Then God will invite that one into his global spiritual family. (John 6:44; 65)
Corruption indeed has been within christainity for a long long time . Paul warned of it .
But the problem is i have seen many false leaders come in and say this truth
ONLY to lead their followers even farther away from the truth than even the sold out ones were doing .
And you know what most of them had in common . THEY attacked the kjv TRANSLATION AS THOUGH IT WAS THE PROBLEM .
if YA KNOW OF ANY WHO DID THAT MY ADVICE WOULD BE DO NOT HEED THEM .
or , or if they did not attack the kjv , THEY BROUGHT in their own books and twisted teaches , example JOSPEH smith .
and others . The only way to end the madness is NOT TO attack the bible , But to have encouraged FOLKS TO HAVE READ IT
and OFTEN . Many men have come and have come in with partial truths about the errors of the CHURCH at their time
and YET led their followers down an even worse path . The blind leading the blind into deeper ditches .
ITS TIME FOLKS OPEN THAT BIBLE and started to do some learning FOR THEMSELVES .

1 Corinthians 2:14​


14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 2:14-16 GNBUK​

Whoever does not have the Spirit cannot receive the gifts that come from God's Spirit. Such people really do not understand them; they are nonsense to them, because their value can be judged only on a spiritual basis. Whoever has the Spirit, however, is able to judge the value of everything, but no one is able to judge him. As the scripture says: “Who knows the mind of the Lord? Who is able to give him advice?” We, however, have the mind of Christ.

The Bible states that “without faith it is impossible to please [God]” (Heb. 11:6). This is an incredible statement, yet it is in the Bible! Take it for exactly what it says. Just think! Anything a person does, in attempting to be Christian, means absolutely nothing, if he lacks faith. For without faith, he has no hope—no possibility—of pleasing God. Any who are not pleasing God are Christians in vain. So having real faith is serious!

Ephesians 2

New International Version

Made Alive in Christ​

2 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh[a] and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christand seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is by grace you have been saved,through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Romans 8:1-17​


Life Through the Spirit​

1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh,
4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.
6 The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.
7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so.
8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.
9 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.
10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.
13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.
14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.
15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.
17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

OSAS is omitting HOLY SPIRIT REMINDERS that will help keep the church safe .
THEY are omitting the things of the SPIRIT in trade for an acroynm . JESUS KNOWS HOW TO KEEP US
safe and from fallling and YET osas teachers OMIT SOME OF HIS OWN WARNINGS to justify an acroymn.
THE CHURCH NEEDED and needs these reminders as they do HIS WORDS . HIS WORDS ARE OUR MEAT
only many omit them for an acronym . THAT IS and has been my problem with OSAS . THEY OMIT NECESSARY WARNINGS
and REMINDERS .

The problem again isthis , most have not been born again , most rather follow another jesus . its not looking too good
for many in these final hours upon earth . A heavy delusion and deceptoin has taken hold upon the many
and hasbrought them to the alter of another god through the version of a wordly love .

Jesus the True Vine
(Isaiah 27:1–13)
1“I am the true vine, and My Father is the keeper of the vineyard. 2He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit, and every branch that does bear fruit, He prunes to make it even more fruitful. 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me.
5I am the vine and you are the branches. The one who remains in Me, and I in him, will bear much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing. 6If anyone does not remain in Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers. Such branches are gathered up, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples.
No Greater Love
9As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love. 10If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. 11I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.
12This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
14You are My friends if you do what I command you. 15No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything I have learned from My Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you. 17This is My command to you: Love one another.
The Hatred of the World
18If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first. 19If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.
20Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’a If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well. 21But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me. 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.
23Whoever hates Me hates My Father as well. 24If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. 25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’b
26When the Advocatec comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about Me. 27And you also must testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you. 17This is My command to you: Love one another.
The Hatred of the World
18If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first. 19If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.
20Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’a If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well. 21But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me. 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.
23Whoever hates Me hates My Father as well. 24If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. 25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’b
26When the Advocatec comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about Me. 27And you also must testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning.
The SPIRIT will testify of WHO . not budda and good works, BUT JESUS CHRIST and HIS teachings .
Not just love and believe as you will , NOPE , BUT JESUS CHRIST .
The commandment was not , BELIEVE whatever religoin ye desire and love one another . IT WAS BELIEVE YE ON JESUSCHRIST
and love one another . INCLUSIVITY IS FALSE . The social gospel IS false . JESUS IS TRUTH and the lambs shall POINT TO HIM .
Teaching alllll things HE did say and later through the power of the SPIRIT the apostels wrote as well .
Lambs wont heed pope francis or the likes who come in the name of a false love in order to simply uinify the religoins and the faiths
to be as one . Lambs wont be heeding that voice . Lambs heed the VOICE of CHRIST JESUS .
And CHRIST JESUS is whom they gonna point folks to . With the mindset , the heart that says , YE MUST BELIEVE IN HIM .
Cause no other religoin can save , they all false . ONLY JESUS SAVES so BELEIVE YE IN HIM .
