Some and not all people here are essentially saying that you do not need to turn from your sin as a requirement for salvation. One person has already said that you are forgiven of your sins, past, present, and future. Which means you do not need to worry about sin or deal with it. Another has said that repentance is not turning away from sin but it is about turning away from making yourself your own God. But sinning and being your own God is the same thing. Folks here have not been promoting that we must repent or have a Godly sorrow and or forsake sin so as to be classified as a true believer. Folks believe you can be out of fellowship with God (i.e. no doubt because of sin) and still be saved. Yes, I realize there are OSAS Lite Proponents who believe that if you live a habitual life of sin, you are not saved. But most folks here are not holding to that belief. At least not from I can tell.

You have issues.

One CAN NOT TURN FROM SIN, until they are first born of God. don't you remember, the things of God are foolish to those who are not his. If we could turn from sin on our own power, then we would not need God, we could save ourselves.

Second. You have yet to prove how myself or anyone else here like me believe on can be saved apart from repentance.

third. you do not know what most of us on here believe, I have yet to even hear you acknowledge it. You keep saying we believe things NON OF US have claimed to believe, or even mentioned.

in the real world. that is called hypocritical thinking, and yours is out their for ALL to see, if only you could see it, Maybe there would be hope for you. But I fear your pride is to deep.

My declaration does not change the truth that is wthin the Scriptures for all us believvers. Paul essentially says, believers WERE once sinners. They do not stay as sinners.. Paul says, shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound? But by your way of thinking the answer would be a yes? If you do not continue in sin (As Paul tells us to do), then what does that make you?
Paul tells us to do?

Paul did not tell us to do anything, He stated a fact, That if you continue in sin, Can grace save you? Well yes it CAN SAVE YOU, but it has not saved you yet, You have yet to repent, thats why your still living in sin,

As John says, something you deny (And I have yet to hear you even comment on) A pserson born of God can not live in sin, they are born of God and have Gods spirit.

so if someone continues in sin, have they EVER BEEN SAVED? If someone returns to their own vomit and returns to sin, HAVE THEY EVER BEEN SAVED?

John says no, I trust john, Not you.

Believers do not sin habitually as a way of life. Read 1 John 3:6, 9. They may not always be perfect. David sure sinned. But he was a man after God's own heart and he did not continue to live a life of habitual sin after he repented of his sins of murder and adultery.
Wow, You just proved OSAS yet again..

You have the knowledge, you just need to have it apply to your life and your eternity, and repent of your pride and refusal to see. Give it all to God, and you will be one of those believers who do not and will never habitually sin as a way of life.

by your words you believe that there are those who will not..
.Give it all to God, and you will be one of those believers who do not and will never habitually sin as a way of life. ..
what is the difference between the two??? since they both believe ....and you say once you believe they are saved...you cannot now say they were never saved...

No, actually it is you and Jason who believes a sin can fall back into sin, not myself or anyone of like Faith as I.

there is a huge difference between belief and Faith. James mentions this but you ignore him

You have belief, I have faith.


whoever has true faith is saved, and as Jason admitted, and John stated matter of factually,, they can not live in habitual sin.

scripture says a man can fall back into sin...you simply deny it...and some also thought it was ok to sin....Paul tells them it is not right....

Romans 6:1-3King James Version (KJV)
6 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
[SUP]2 [/SUP]God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
[SUP]3 [/SUP]Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

1 John 2:1

My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1 John 5:16
If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.

one cannot live in habitual sin in Christ.....out of Christ is a different story...the thing is.... you believe one can abide in sin and abide in Christ at the same time....not so..

you are the one who is preaching OSAS and all sins are already forgiven...so tell me .??? what will he be judged for?? a sin that was already paid for???

did not God remove the stony heart and replaced it with a heart of flesh??
You continue to rail against a straw men. Each believer must give account to Christ for what they have done since they were saved. I think when our works go through the fire the things we prized most will be quickly consumed. If nothing survives then we enter into heaven with nothing.

When I face Jesus will I have done all that I could have done? Will He say to me well done thou good and faithful servant? Or will His gaze cause me to hang my head in shame?

Everything hangs on the first commandment to love the Lord thy God with all thy strength.

you do not read very well do you?


1 John 3: [SUP]9 [/SUP]Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

It has to do with Being BORN OF GOD.

how then do they account for a sin that they have done after being saved.....when you teach those sins are already forgiven...if that is the case then it cannot be for all they have done...getting philosophical with me does not answer the question....this discussion stems of an OSAS believer killing some people...as an OSAS believer is that sin already paid for? a simple yes or no will suffice...

Has anyone in this near-riot of a discussion noted that the OP hasn't said a word since posting the thread?

That always strikes me as odd. Why start a discussion if you have no interest in the concourse to which it was directed?

you read well but your understanding level is questionable...some years ago you were born of God ..have you sinned since then???...I believe that answer would be yes....so is scripture lying???NO...we know from scripture.. that a man sins when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed....It is from Christ he is drawn away....so it is clear one cannot sin in Christ...the seed is the word...if the word/seed remains in you then you cannot sin, because you are obeying the word...if you are drawn away from the word of God/Christ by your own lust...that is when you sin...

Yes the blood of Christ cleanses us from all our sin. Christ's blood is not like the blood of animals but is the blood of The lamb of God.

Actually it is you that fails to understand the simple concept found below and in scripture....

1. Why did Jesus say the spirit is willing but the flesh weak?

The spirit is that aspect that is born of God, does not sin and is eternally secure and sealed in Jesus....
The body is DEAD because of SIN, is fallen and can do nothing but sin...

These two are contrary the one to the other and continually battle for control......

Sometimes the flesh wins out and a believer will sin and does sin....sometimes the Spirit which is saved wins and controls the flesh and the person walks upright before God...

The more you study, pray and surrender to the SPIRIT the more faithful you become in your walk...This does not alleviate the fact that occasionally the flesh raises it's ugly head to cause one to stumble and fail in sin....

The SPIRIT is still saved, regenerated and secure in Christ even if the flesh takes control and causes one to sin.......!

Rather simple at the end of the day.....!

what law of Moses are you talking about???...the law of Moses is abolished to those who are in Christ....Jews and Gentiles are now brothers in Christ....outside Christ all are condemned...
hes talking to the jewish people hear.
2 This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?3 Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?4 Did you suffer so many things in vain--if indeed it was in vain?5 So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?

yet you religious taboo, is clear when you try to rebuilt a sin that can take away the gift(the holy spirit)
gos to show

24 So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith.25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian,26 for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.2
no long under the law, but under jesus.


act 15 what law was given to a gentile

for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.2

in other words he is saying this to both.
16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

ie believe in him. and everything he did on earth and what he did when he went back to heaven etc

so ware did you get your sin, from that stops or takes away the gift of grace.(in your other posts) to a believer.

what law saved you in a new covenant. what law was give to a gentile.


i concluded not if you believe.
1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.3

strange you blindness only answer some things that have been said to you.

your the one who s been projecting sin can stop you after you believe, from a law, you now say is a abolished.

we are born in sin... through grace and the obedience of faith Christ saves us from sin....as long as we are abiding in him...if for whatever reason we are drawn away from Christ...you are no longer in Christ ...therefore you are in sin there ia no middle ground...

what law saved you in a new covenant. what law was give to a gentile.
we are saved by grace through faith....the law of the Spirit is made available to all men....both jew and Gentile

i concluded not if you believe.
1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.3
those who are IN Christ have no condemnation....it is the law of the Spirit of life IN Christ that sets you free from sin..
these things are only possible IN Christ...

strange you blindness only answer some things that have been said to you.
thank you

your the one who s been projecting sin can stop you after you believe, from a law, you now say is a abolished.
the wages of sin is still death....the gift of God is still eternal life....eternal life is in Christ(where the law is abolished)...outside Christ is sin and death(where the law condemns)...you cannot have both...In Christ is freedom not a prison ....but no sin can abide in Christ

would you now care to address all the other thing i have said to you on this forms, and bring you answers back
I think I have...if not just point out that which is not clear to you...

Read your own post to which I responded...you begin the post by saying Paul is talking to Jews...and then quoting from the book of Galatians ... what was your intention if not to suggest that the scriptures where not related to a discussion on the issue?
