Sorry bro but i cannot fall into your trap. I don't mean to be rude but I cannot say that I'm a sinner and afterwards claim to be born again in Christ otherwise I make my Lord of no value to me and I become a worthless servant to my Lord.
Luke 6:45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

it is not a trap, just reality,
john said if we deny we have sin we are decieved. Paul said he still had a battle between the flesh and spirit. But told us what to do, and most importantly. Told us not to think we have made it, but continue to run the race,
i still sin, those are the facts, I can not fall into your trap and deny I have any sin, I will stunt my growth, deceive myself, and have to start Fooling myself into thinking I have made it, why run the race when I already arrived?
thanks but no thanks.

[SUP]12 [/SUP]Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
please note verse befor who ever has the son does this [SUP]2 [/SUP]This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. [SUP]3 [/SUP]In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, [SUP]4 [/SUP]for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. [SUP]5 [/SUP]Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
it soley depends on whether you look at scripture head on or look at it from a future world like lookng in a mirror you see a reflection.. well i wreckon scripture should be read backwards to as to get its true reflection..

I agree. I have very few people on my ignore list and he is the only one on it, currently.
Every Sunday I erase my ignore list. Then as folks start posting insults and acting in such an immature way, I put them on ignore and only read their comments when they are quoted if I have time.
Make it so I can actually have a decent conversation, but I do slim/skip posts that are off topic and just fighting unless God moves me heart to compassion to speak and intervene.
.I tend to get bashed by both sides of those argument for my troubles, so I just pray and only speak of I believe God tells me I should.
I stay in this thread because I believe that preaching that salvation is by Faith and Not works is important foundation.
After the foundation is laid, the roots need to be sunk deep into Christ. Then mature Christians can do good works to glorify God.
However too often people advocate for child labor instead of growth and maturity in Christ.
