should he have said" go sin some more it will make things better"? Wasnt adultery the issue at hand ? Don't make more of the verses than they say .
Jesus say sin No more. That tell that Jesus don't like sin

Sin seperate us from God

As a siner I can fell, when I am continue my sin, I fell far from the zholy Lord Jesus

I have to stop sining and ask forgiveness

Base oN Galatians 5 those sin make you not inherit the kingdom of God

All we need is stop murder and repent.
Then why did Jesus have to die ? If all we need to do is stop a sin , change your mind and its all better? Why do we tell unbelievers the Gospel if all we have to tell them is stop a sin , change your mind and you go to heaven? you keep avoiding explaining this , please answer .

Eph 1 3¶Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

4¶But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
6And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
7That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselfs : it is the gift of God:
9NOT OF WORKS , lest any man should boast.
Nothing If These verse say, Galatians 5 was wrong

Because save by grace through faith, then go, keep murder.

I agree, Galatians 5 give list of sin that make us not inherit the kingdom of God, not only murder

So If we commit those sin, we better repent or not inherit

Bible never Lie, If It say Not inherit KD mean not inherit.

Prove our faith in our work.
Do not agree

Your trying to earn salvation. Good luck!

His blood redemed whosoever believe

Back to Galatians 5

No repent, murder, envying etc not inherit kingdom, mean not save
perfect. Now look at your contradiction there 1) you say "
His blood redeemed whosoever believe" Ok great, I agree.

2) No repent, murder, envying etc not inherit kingdom, mean not save
Completely contradicts point 1) ?
how can you be ' redeemed ' by God by the blood of Jesus and Justified by God . Then Sin and be unredeemed by the blood and unjustified. Do you have verses that say we get un justified , un redeemed , un born again , un sealed ect ? something so important as our eternal destiny and no mention of being unsealed , un born , unbaptised, un sanctification, un justified, un seated in the heavenlies , our spirt gets unregenerated, No longer a new creation?? No mention of this crucial information? when it goes into so much detail as to what happens to a person after He believes . 27 books in the NT alone and no mention ??

That was before the biggest event in the entire bible and you keep missing it . Jesus died for the sins of the world . He reconciled the world .
2cor 5 .19
To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them ; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. ( How about that ? this completely proves what your saying is unbiblical my friend . )
" IT IS ......WAIT FOR IT .....FINISHED "

Hate in your heart is murder . All sin is missing the mark.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point , he is guilty of all .

Your using 1 cor here out of context . This is speaking about spiritual gifts and Paul is saying gifts will cease but charity remains , even in heaven . Another guarantee .

actually we must interpret Scripture with Spirit also. if any interpretation goes against the Spirit of God (what He reveals to us personally) how can we accept it? we can't. those who Worship God must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

but Some are on Milk, some are on Herbs, some on Meat. some are on a diet of a Combination of things mixed in with Falsehoods and Guesses ..

how will we know the the Falsehoods from Truth? how will we ever discover our Errors, we who are so far down here below God in Knowledge and True Understanding?

1 Corinthians 13:12

“For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.”

We must Seek the answers from Him my friend and not Rely only on our Own interpretations, Teachings, Dogmas, Ideas, Beliefs.

Jeremiah 29:13
…12Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

with ALL your Heart. so how much are you searching my friend?

a heart involved in in too much Evil and Wickedness will certainly be Far from Him and His Kingdom, and from Finding more and more Truth.

Psalm 145:18-20
The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth

Psalm 34:17
16But the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to sever their memory from the earth. 17The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears; He delivers them from all their troubles. 18The LORD is near to the brokenhearted; He saves the contrite in spirit.…
Psalm 34.17 saves from what ? remember this is before the saviour who came to save and before the cross of salvation.

8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselfs : it is the gift of God:
Yes grace through faith

But faith Will bear fruit of love not murder

Faith without work is die

Start with faith, not work than invite Jesus into our heart than bear fruit of love

Love not murder
Love the greatest commanmend not murder
1 cor 13

The greatest of These is charity/love in action. Not murder

Murder not go to heaven

Gal 5:21
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

You believe because Jesus die we don't need repent, keep murder ?

Why that not agree with Galatians 5"

Jesus teach love not murder

Jesus never say, after I die oN the cross, keep murder you Will go to heaven

Ephesians 1:7 "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace." OK this what happened at the cross , THROUGH HIS BLOOD , not by asking for forgiveness. Thats Islam and Catholicism.
His blood only forgive whosoever believe.
Whosoever have faith and faith without work is dead

Faith without work? How many works . Its One ..When we believe that is not a work but it is our ONE belief that saves .Abraham did One .. by offering issac .
