1. What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2. God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein? (Rome 6:1-2)

So as our dear brother Paulos writes here, that it not about grace of God, if continue sinning, but it is, because we have not yet die from sinning, so we still live in that old life with the sin.

Do not join to the lust of your flesh, so that you are obedience for it, and sin.
 
It is only by the Grace of God that we are saved. It is the Grace of God that gives us faith. As long as we are in this flesh and blood body we are going to sin, nothing we can do will prevent that. There was only one man who did not sin in His flesh and blood body, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Paul explained this in Romans 7:14-21. Paul desired not to sin. It is this desire, from the heart, that our Lord Jesus Christ wants from us.
 
A true christian has 3 enemies:

1) His Flesh
2) The World
3) The Devil

When you give your life to Christ, you'll be fighting against these everyday.

Your flesh drives you to sin. The world shows you how to sin. And the Devil tempts you.

If you've surrendered to your enemies, but still call yourself a christian, you're what the Bible refers to as "lukewarm".

the seduction of self delusion

if you sinned before, then you are still guilty of sin

only the blood of Christ can cleanse you of your sin

therefore, if you have sinned, you are still guilty of sin

that is quite a quandry

which is why, believers worldwide rely on the Son of God for salvation

There is no other name under heaven whereby a person may be saved...all your righteousness is as a filthy rag before God, Who is and Was and IS to come

repent of all self righteousness now before He finds you wanting
 
1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we[SUP]a[/SUP] have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we[SUP]b[/SUP] boast in the hope of the glory of God.3Not only so, but we[SUP]c[/SUP] also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. Romans 5

Amen

But if we do sin, we have forgiveness. If we confess our sin, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sin.

Jesus is the ONLY One who never sinned. We, are not made of the same stuff. while we have the Holy Spirit indwelling us, we were conceived in the normal way. The Holy Spirit did not overshadow our mothers as He did with Mary and therefore we still have the capacity to sin on this earth.

However, we desire to follow Christ and we do not desire to sin. THAT, is the difference!

The sin is hanging on us, but if we are obedience to the lust of our flesh, we are servant of the sin.

Our dear brother Paulos in Rome 7 writes about that, that the sin is hanging on him, and the message should be not read like that he still sin.

Here is quote which I have write:

14. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15. For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do. 16. But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good. 17. So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me. 18. For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but to do that which is good is not. 19. For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I practise. 20. But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me. 21. I find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present. 22. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23. but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. 24. Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death? 25. I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I of myself with the mind, indeed, serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. (Romans 7:14-25)

What our dear brother Paulos, writes here is, that his body, or his flesh is still prone to do sin, even though his mind is works now different, because now the mind what he have is a mind of the Spirit, and not mind of the flesh anymore, but the flesh still is prone to rise up lust, and temptations, which he do not anymore join, like the time when he have the mind of flesh.

But if a man do join in the lust from his body, it is because he have not mortify yet the mind of flesh, so his mind work according to the flesh.

The mind of flesh is for dead, but mind of the Spirit is for life, and everyone should mortify that mind of flesh, so that you may not join in the lust from you flesh, and do sin.

Do not commit sin anymore

But if we confess our sins he is righteous and will purify us all wrongness.

Do you for get this part?

No you don't but you left it away in purposely, and what is that telling about your honestly, and your heart?

Do you think that the Lord Yeshua is like you?

Repent such behavior, and make the improve in your life, so you do not drown for you sins, and falsity which is dwelling in you now.

Yet, you have no sin to confess, because you are at a point in your life where you no longer sin - correct?

Do you not get that God places the sinlessness and righteousness of Christ in our account? His holiness, not ours.

It is not of ourselves in any way.

Paul wrote (again, after he was saved: "We know that the law is spiritual; But I am (not "was") unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do (not "did"). For what I want to do, I do not do,(present tense) but what I hate to do (not "did"). And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living (not "lived) in me. I know that nothing good lives (not "lived") in me, that is, my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.

For what I do (not "did") is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do - this I keep doing (not "used" to do). Now, if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living (not "lived") in me that does it. So, I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work (not "was" at work) in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work (not "was" at work) within my members. What a wretched man I am! (not "was") Who will rescue me from this body of death?"

Paul also said: "The chief (or "worst") of sinners, I am." (1 Timothy 1:15) Once again, he wrote it in the present tense.

Ecclesiastes 7:20 says: "There is not a righteous man on earth, who does what is right and never sins."
 
MikkoA-
Does your fleshly breathing body still sin and your Spirit does not or are you a walking talking holy sinless person just as Jesus as He walked the earth? Because if you are still aging and getting older every day one day your body will die because of sin. Or is your flesh body going to live forever? Do you understand what I am saying?

The sin of my flesh is hanging on me, but I do not join it, because I do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit, like it should be for all christians.

It is a huge difference for that, that are we obey to our lust of flesh, or not, even though the temptations may still be there.

If I do thing according to the lust of my flesh, then I do sin, but if I resist the lust of my flesh I do not commit sin, or be guilty to the sin, so that I have to repent it.
