Was that the confession called for in 1 John 1:9?
If you will continue in the light, which is God, you won't commit any more sins.
Praise be to the grace of God and the name of Jesus Christ.
Or was it just sarcasm?
Hi PJW.
I am going to be honest here.
I just want you know that it is not to go at you.
You do come across as saying that you do not sin at all.
And anyone who does admit they do sin are servants of sin and that a God will not listen to them whilst they are still sinning.
So you do come accross as judgemental.
You have said above “If you will continue in the light, which is God, you won’t commit any more sins”
To me if you do not sin then based in what you are saying is that when you confess your sin before God given what what you have said in previous posts “If you sin God will not hear your prayer”
So at what point will God hear our prayer of confession? Because if we come to him to confess sin in the first instance by your logic he won’t listen.
Correct me if I am wrong but you say that you do not sin at all.
If this is the case rather than tell people they be sinless and if they are God won’t here them can you help those of use who acknowlede that we sin how to get over the first hurdle that if we confess our sin that God will not here our prayers.
Secondly what has helped you and how have you come to committing sins.
You responded to my post a few pages back and asked if I was promoting sin.
Just so you know that is something I would never ever do.
The grace of God is not an excuse to sin.
To me the grace of God covers sin but helps us to sin less and not being sinless.
That is where you and I disagree.
Yes we should aspire to be like Jesus who was sinless whilst at the same loving each other.
Can I also ask that you just don’t post bible verses but tell us of your experiences and the help of the Holy Spirit that now you walk sinless.
