How do we CONSTANTLY read just the opposite of what someone writes?

It's not a question of whether it's OK to sin or not, but will you lose your salvation if you practice sin?
Especially when you look at the sins of omission,and the fact that Jesus said our thought life convicts us,not just the outward commission.

It's very revealing when this question isn't answered directly, but only in roundabout ways.
Those girls on your avie are so heart warming,i don't think I could ever stay mad at you. LOL

Yet, that same word said.... "however, when you DO sin....

We must not forget this.

Healing comes from confessing (a word that literally means to state, or admit what you have done)

When I finally learned this, It was so freeing, I could go to God and say thank you God for forgiving me for (insert whatever I did) And God. I need help next time, Who should I go to for help. Because I do not want to keep making this same error over and over.

I used to be a master of this.

It came from being told over and over in Church,, "this is what these people teach, this is what they believe, They will continually use these as examples and proofs to support their false ideas."
So we look for key words, and boom. Yep I knew it, you believe this way, Instead of actively listening and trying to figure out what they really believe.

That would still fit the "is it ok to sin issue, and not the if you lose salvation if you do not issue.

actually the question itself is a pretty leading question.

why would someone ask about a Christian practicing sin, when scripture says clearly they can not do this?

Indonesian. Their Christian mother was arrested and threatened with death for being a Christian. Broke my heart. That's why I put it there.

To confess = [FONT="Gentium" !important]homologeō[/FONT]
[/SIZE]Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.


[COLOR=maroon][FONT="Times New Roman"]1.[/FONT][/COLOR] “to say the same thing as another, i.e. to agree with, assent,” both absolutely

There are many ways to confess...one is to "say the same thing" about a deed that was indeed a sin ( little play on words there..) to God or to others you have harmed

The other side of the coin = I also confess that Jesus is my righteousness and holiness. His life and blood that was shed on the cross has saved me and made me whole!

Confession is not just about "sin"...( this is how we evangelicals that are so sin-focused usually think about when we hear "confess" ).....however....we will be "confessing" truth for all eternity without any reference to sin!

I don't know, one of these folk who believe in this grace says scripture clearly states christians cannot practice sin

Another one of them says the mark of a christian is addiction to sin is broken

Yet the all believe Paul spoke of his christian life in rom7:7-11&14-23

Wisdom is always proved right by its inconsistencies

I hope you don't mind, but i have been chatting almost constantly about these verses for over a week and need a break from them. We would never agree anyway. But thank you for your thoughts
And now, he is bringing it back up again??

To prove a point concerning inconsistencies in belief. Hope you don't mind
Well You did not prove what you intended to prove,

So all you did was rehash the same old argument you just told someone in another thread you did not want to rehash.
