    How to be : Sinless Forever

    The fact is he still sinned. I love when a legalist tries to claim Abraham was so righteous, and when someone brings up abrahams sins they try to just not acknowledge them or push it away as if it is nothing. yet he committed adultry with his maid. he lied to a king and said his wife was his...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    The word sin “hamarte” Literally means to fall short. if you claim you have no sin, you are decieved. it does nto matter who you are. for all have sinned and fall short. And I believe we all are still sinning and falling short.

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    yes he did, nit they had absolutely nothing to do with his eternal justification. PS.He also had a lot of sins after he was imputed righteous based on his faith.. I am just going to James. The work James spoke of happened decades after he was justified by faith.

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    There was no law of moses when abraham was saved, He was saved because he believed God in gen 15 I think it is. later (many years later) he proved his faith by offering his son. which means he justified his own faith in front of man, for himself. But he was saved in Gen 15 before he did one work.

    so they can lose salvation, lose their new birth lose their adoption? I am sorry but I reject this notion Yes, Salvation is complete..

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    This is not true eph 2 - we are saved by GRACE period. through faith. not of works lest anyone should boast. titus 3. Not by works of righteousness (good deeds) but by his mercy he saved us. don;t fall for the legalistic lie that says your works save you while someone elses do not. The...

    there are people in here who think they have no sin.. that they have achieved sinless perfection. so if you have not heard anyone say this, I would say keep listening, because you will

    Sinless perfection is easy

    nope. The new covenant says we are under grace not under law. lol. Paul could not make it. so you think you can? You said you left protestantism. I assume you are a catholic? they do nto even believe this. I agree 100 % What I do not agree with is the notion that one work I did could help...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    or maybe most christians believe in 1 John 1: 8 where John says if we claim we are (presently) not sinning, we decieve ourselves and their is no truth in us. 1 John 3 is clear. a person who lives in sin has never met or known God. A person born of God can not live in sin. Living in sin is...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    No they can not live in sin. John makes this clear. Whoever is born of God can not live in sin.. We can live as babes in christ. but we can not live in sin. I think what most christians do is refuse to acknowledge what sin they are doing on a daily bases so they can justify to themselves they...

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    Actually Paul says otherwise. as Does Jesus. James is speaking of being justified before men. James said show ME (a man) your faith. and I will show you (other men) my faith. James did not contradict Paul. We are justified by faith alone, But faith is never alone. how can you test your...

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    If you have no faith. your still condemned. so you can not remove faith from the equation. God does not force you to believe as the Calvinist would insist. The people on moses day were saved because in faith they looked at the serpent on the pole. In the same means, we are saved because God...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    I believe every word. But I will never think I have made it. I will not be deceived to think I do not sin. Not only Does God chasten me when I get out of line (proving I still sin) but I sit there at night, and think of all the times I could have done something nd did not do it. because I was...

    Dude you told they guy he claimed he still lived in sin, He did not. he said he still sinned. He never stated he lives in sin .so you even know what living in sin means? True. Unless you are deceived and think you do not still sin, yet you claim youi are saved. You believe what they guys said...

    thank you. You just proved my point of why a believer can not live in sin. Abd you also showed that yes, a believer can still sin. but they will be chastened when they do. In fact. this is what paul says

    that would be mere belief, even demons believe. Your either born again, Or claim to have faith but are still dead in your sins. there is no other status

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    You are both partially right. We are saved (born again) by grace (through the Holy Spirit) through faith. even Jesus said we are born again by looking to the cross in faith

    How to be : Sinless Forever

    This is true. But if your obeying to keep saved, or keep from losing salvation. then your not acting on faith to God. your acting on faith in self. and fear of God and have placed yourself under law
