What do you think is the most common sin among Christians?

[Behold]

I would never say that our behavior does not matter.

If you understood Paul's Gospel, then you would understand that your behaivor is not accepted by God to Accept you or keep you.
And if you understood that, then you would not beieve that your behaivor that can't save you to begin with.. also can't cause you to lose your Salvation.
And if you could understand that.........then this is because you have understood that The Cross of Christ is the only reason that God will accept or keep anyone.

John 14:6

And getting back to this "sin" question.

If you have your sin, then Jesus does not have them, and your are not a Chrisitan.
Jesus has your sin, and died for it, or you will die in them, because He has not paid for them all, yet.

A.) Jesus is the One time ETERNAL Sacrifice for SIN".

If Jesus Has your sin, then your become a "new Creation in Christ" and the "old man of sin is crucified with Christ" and you exits in the KOG, where there is no Moses Law or 10 Commandments, found.

See, the CHRISTian, is "IN CHRIST....and there is no sin found there, or you would not be "in Christ".

The Christian is "made righteous", and this is caused by The Sacrirfice of Christ that God has applied to the Believer, as :

"The Gift of Righteousness"

The Christian is become "The righteousness of GOD......."IN CHRIST"....forever.

Like this..

"As Jesus IS.......so are the born again.......in THIS world":.

Now, a Christian has to learn who they have become as "in Christ".....and that is what im showing you.

The Christian is """not under the Law."""......so, the Law can't define the born again, as a sinner.

This is not suggesting that you are not able to be a horrible Christian........and its not suggesting that you are not to "present your body as a living Sacrifice to God".......every moment of your life that you are awake.

The Spiritual Reality....is this....a "Son-Daughter" of God is "not under the Law, but under Grace"...and they are "made righteous", forever.

And if you understood that, then you would not beieve that your behaivor that can't save you to begin with.. also can't cause you to lose your Salvation.

So you think that if you molest children and then kill them cook them and eat them……you think that you are going to Heaven?

 

[Grailhunter]

Thanks everyone for your comments. Keep them coming.

 

[Jay Ross]

Our primary sin, and most common, against God is to begin acting God Like. By acting God like we have turned away from God losing our moral compass, and, as such, all the other sins as detailed in scripture we do.

 

[PS95]

A false substitute is saying believers can not sin. This is a shame. Paul never taught that if we live in sins that we will inherit the kingdom of God. He taught the opposite. Paul is speaking to the SAINTS!! Obviously Paul knew we can still SIN! You deny Paul.
I have given you verses many times over several days.. You still ignore them. Perhaps someone else can set you straight, because I have done all I can do to show you your errors.


But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed. / Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving. / For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Eph 5:3-5

The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; / idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, / and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. --Galatians 5:19-21

For it is God’s will that you should be holy: You must abstain from sexual immorality; / each of you must know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, / not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God; 1 Thes 4:3-5

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires. / Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness. Ro 6:12-13

For you know what commandments we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. 3For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality; 4that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, 5not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God; 6and that no man transgress and defraud his brother in the matter because the Lord is the avenger in all these things, just as we also told you before and solemnly warned you. 7For God has not called us for the purpose of impurity, but in sanctification. 8So, he who rejects this is not rejecting man but the God who gives His Holy Spirit to you. 1 Thes 4:2-8


ETC...................

 

[Reggie Belafonte]

Trying to make out you are good ? gowing with the flow ? and not standing up for Jesus !

Following along with this world is a major one !

For a Christian should not be of this world that is clearly full of deceptions and delusions.

Giving money to something you do not know where it truly being used etc.

And being a Socialist dupe, thinking and swallowing that it's Christianity. for they think such are doing good, but in fact an abomination.

 

[Lambano]

What do you think is the most common sin among Christians?​

Self-righteousness?

 

[Lambano]

What do you think is the most common sin among Christians?​

Self-centeredness.

 

[Lambano]

What do you think is the most common sin among Christians?​

The most common sin is our failure to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

and the second most common one is like unto it: Our failure to love our neighbor as ourselves.

Both of which are a result of the heart condition listed in post #28.

 

[Behold]

So you think that if you molest children and then kill them cook them and eat them……you think that you are going to Heaven?

"Jesus came into the world to save sinners"

Everyone qualifies.

So, if the you are born again, then you are going to heaven.
Final answer.

If you commit henious crimes, as a Christian, then you go to Jail or worse.
And i believe that capital punishment should be reinstated in the USA for certain crimes, like the one you described.

The Cross of Christ forgives all sin, and removes John 3:36........but, it does not create a situation where "reaping what you've sown".... is not in effect.
Paul said that if He does anything worthy of death, then "execute"......so, that is the same for any Believer who would commit a capital offense.

 

[Behold]

A false substitute is saying believers can not sin.

Believers are "not under the Law, but under Grace".
This means that they exist where there is no Law.........and that is IN the Kingdom of God.
The believer is born again INTO The Kingdon of God, forever.
Their sin has been resolved by Jesus's Sacrifice... 2000 yrs ago, and because they are not "under the Law" then the Law can't define them as a sinner or their carnality as sin.

A Christian, is "under Grace", and that means that God does not charge sin to them, ever again, because Jesus has already died for all their sin.

Romans 4:8
2 Corin 5:19

This does not mean they are perfect, and wont commit carnal deeds, (works of the flesh)... it simply means that "The Curse of the Law" has been removed by Jesus's Sacrifice and fullfillment of the Law.

One of the things that new Christians, have a hard time understanding is that God only sees them as a "new Creation"... "in Christ".
WHereas they see themselves as......>"i failed" " i did something wrong again"......ect.
But God does not see the born again as anything other then "made righteous".. having become "the righteousness of God, in Christ".

When the new Chrisitan, learns this, and adopts that Mind.. that is REAL FAITH, that is the "helmet of Salvation".....then they have "worked out their Salvation"

Hilarious! Yeshua or a judge

 

[Grailhunter]

Self righteous---self centered---pride all good suggestions

 

[Behold]

Hilarious! Yeshua or a judge

In fact everyone will meet God was "Father" or " eternal Judge".
Best to meet Him with your sins forgiven, as your Heavenly Father.

And there it is. That crime is also a sin as crime is sin. Behold this makes you a dangerous false teacher, -don't you realize that? I'm joyful at your faith in Jesus and your love for His grace, but you sell the Lord short on what He requires of those who love Him.
You are only teaching half of what Paul taught, and because of your ignoring so much of what he wrote- you have to stick with the ludicrous idea that there are two gospels! Paul taught the same ONE gospel as the apostles did- Paul blasted BEHAVIORS. You IGNORE BEHAVIORS.
PAUL said believers who practice these things will NOT inherit the KINGDOM OF GOD! Please deal with the truth written. You speak about Paul, Paul, Paul- Paul's theology yet you don't even know it. You can know it. You can get past this blindspot. You need to want to see truth. I don't say this to shame you. I say it because I know you know the Spirit works in you- why do you suppose you gave up netflix etc? The Spirit in you spoke to your spirit and you no longer wanted it. That is how the Spirit works! He doesn't force us. You yielded to the spirit! We can rebel. We can grieve the spirit. People do and it is to their peril if they continue.. We must abide- The Lord keeps us. but we are not puppets- we can sin. LOOK at what Paul said---
sexual immorality,
impurity,
greed.
obscenity,
foolish talk,
crude joking,
No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater)
debauchery; / idolatry an
sorcery;
hatred,
discord,
jealousy, and
rage;
rivalries,
divisions,
factions, / and
envy;
drunkenness,
orgies, and the like.
no man transgress and defraud his brother
fornication,
uncleanness,
passion, evil desire, and
covetousness,
and more-
Is Paul teaching the OT LAWS? He is teaching Love God and neighbor. That is our new "law" It is old yet new, according to John.
Faith working thru LOVE. It is NOT a one time "I believe" and then behavior doesn't matter!! Behavior evidences that faith. You are teaching a dead faith and Paul never did. This is a work God does in us and yes, we need to yield to the Spirit in us. The Spirit is a gift to convict us and empower us, teach us and comfort us. Deal with the passages I gave in above posts, please?
You are not teaching properly. You said you are a preacher? is the an entire church in Israel who teaches behavior doesn't matter for believers? WOW.

 

[PS95]

Hilarious! Yeshua or a judge

I can't find the humor, GH. Behold really worries me.
Now we have a person who molests and eats children- punishment is jail but he goes to heaven because he made a verbal profession only. "This people honors me with their lips but their hearts are far removed from me" comes to mind.
Behold see the changed behavior as a work earing salvation.. ? . His/her faith is an empty profession. Very disturbing.

 

[Behold]

PAUL said believers who practice these things will NOT inherit the KINGDOM OF GOD

You are not able to even try to post what is related to what im teaching.

If you tried to teach 2 Corinthians 5:19, you'd fall down the stairs in your mind, and end up a "Universalist" like st-steven who also can't understand anything in the bible, and just like you : Salvation as God's Grace, is a complete mystery to you both.

Now, Im teaching that God does not Charge sin to the born again.

Romans 4:8

2 Corin 5:19

John 3:17.

Listen bible noob @PS95 ........God CANT charge sin to the born again, as they are not under the Law, and God has already charged their sin to Jesus 2000 yrs ago.
God can't Judge both Jesus and the believer....for sin, and that is why the Believer will never be charged for sin, on earth or in etenity.

Now if the believer decides to pursue carnality, then God will send Hebrews 12:6 to them, and correct them, and its going to hurt.
Its also a fact that "sowing and reaping" is going to be initiated by their carnality, and that is going to hit them in the face as consequences for their deeds.
If they persist in willful carnality over time, after all this....... then Paul says they will DIE.
So, that is the end result of deciding to just live in carnal behavior, willfully, and resuse to be corrected.
They will DIE., and go to heaven, because they are born again.

Now, this is very rare, and most of the time, if a "christian" is living in extreme carnality, its because they are not really a Christian.
They are just a water baptised religious FAKIR.

Now, regarding your Galatians 5 verse, Paul does not teach that this is a believer.
He is teaching on "works of the Flesh", and names them.
So, to Practice those, is a Sinner, never born again, and until they are forgiven, they will not inherit eternal life.. because a SINNER, never born again, has no eternal life in them, as Paul explains.

 

[Nancy]

Pride is the leading sin IMHO.

The problem is that the OSAS people can lead people to Hell. Will there be more OSAS or Jehovah’s Witnesses in Hell? Kind of a toss up.

 

[Grailhunter]

What is the sin of pride?
Most of what people think are sins are man-made sins and there are a lot of those.
One of the reasons that I think people came up with OSAS beliefs is because they believe that there are so many sins that there is no hope of not committing a lot of sins. So they give up trying.
I have said it many times….There are so many man-made sins that it turns the Christian life into a minefield of real sins and fake sins. So much so that you are likely to step on real sins trying to avoid fake sins.
There are easily a lot more fake sins than real sins. Fake sins distract and discourage people from trying to live a life with few sins.

This is more or less a complete biblical list of sins. There is enough here to talk about and discuss their meanings. These are the don’t does, as far as the does we fail to do that are sins, you can add, love one another and love God and go to church.

1st Corinthians 6:9-10 “Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor those habitually drunk, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God”

Galatians 5:19-21 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

But to answer the question what is the most common sin that Christians commit? I would say not going to church is on the common list.
