In a private conversation with Konroh I saw the error of his doctrine and I want to share this with you all. I think a lot of us misunderstand how powerful God's is in the finished product HE produces when he starts with a sinner, and end with a HOLY PERFECT MAN...
Please take some time to see the WORD OF GOD IN THIS TRUTH....
I agree 100% with you up to the part where you say it ends when we aregiven the glorified bodies in heaven ... We aer are given glorified bodies HERE IN and ON EARTH.... TheChristian that followed Jesus ALL the way gets the BORN OF GOD RIGHT HERE ONEARTH,.... He gets the GLORY OF JESUS RIGHT HERE ON EARTH... A FOLLOWER ofJesus is NOT a GLORIFIED PERSON, HE IS FOLLOWING HIS GLORY... But a PERSON THATENDURE TO THE END OF THE FOLLOWING WILL RECEIVE THE GLORY OF JESUS... THE SEEDOF GOD TO REMAIN IN HIM... NOT IN FRONT OF HIM TO FOLLOW, IN HIM TO LIVE WHAT HE ONCEFOLLOWED as Christian.... If you do not mind I am going to put this on a THread... Called THENEND OF SIN.....
When we follow Jesus allthe way we die off the old man... untill all the lust of the flesh is BEATEN FEAD... then God takes that innocent (purified) man and empowers him with a BAPTISM,,,, Spirit baptism HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM... a CHRIST JESUS baptism.. A BORN OF GOD MAN... No more Christian, but now A SPIRIT FILLED HOLY AND EPRFECT MAN.. One made in the liokeness of Jesus... APT FOR ANY JOB GOD WANTS HIM TO DO.... A true GODLY MAN... RIGHT HERE ON EARTH...THE END OF SIN FOR THIS MAN happened when GOD MADE HIM HIS HOLY MAN!!!!

Youhave an understanding that a Christian is perfect, than any passage that speaksto a certain idealism, "given glory, born of God, walk in the Spirit,without sin, perfect as the Heavenly Father is perfect" speaks to thenature of a Christian. And I agree. We have a new nature within us that doesnot sin, and we will be perfect. The problem is that you yourself think youaren't even a Christian because you haven't attained this perfection. In themany passages that speak of the struggle of a Christian, I would say virtuallythe entire NT, the Christian is charged to "put off the old nature, denyyourself, be filled with the Spirit, confess your sins, repent, forgive,encourage one another." These passages are talking to Christians, thosedisciples who first took the name Christian in antioch. The Great Commission ofMatt 28 calls for making disciples. This is a process that starts when onebelieves, continues as one is a disciple and follows and learns from Jesus, andends when we are given glorified bodies in heaven.
If you do not believe you are a Christian, we can't even have a conversation,because while I believe you to have faith in Jesus that has given you eternallife (I hope you do), your definition of a Christian is not a biblical one.It's one who has taken the name of Jesus and declared oneself a follower ofHim. This is a process, a journey, a destination, and a joy.
