Perhaps he means the ecclesia? But how could one attend that, when we are that? There is a church of that name in Houston, Texas, though 
I tried to look them up on the computer, but failed.
I know we once had a group there, but we lost contact with them.
John was addressing two different types of men.
Those who walk in darkness and those who walk in light.
Those in darkness cannot say they have fellowship with God, or that they have no sin. Or for that matter, that they never had sinned.
Those in the light, which is God, have had ALL their sins washed away by the blood of Christ, and can say "I have no sin".
Only a false repentance from sin would accommodate a return to darkness-sin.
You can't have fellowship with God that is based on a lie.

"Achieve"?
Those born of God start out perfect.
What else can Godly seed produce?
I guess either they don't believe that when the blood of Christ is applied to our bodies we are as sanctified as the instruments of the temple were in OT days.
Those "reformed thinkers" have adopted catholic theology...much to their detriment.

God's Word my friend not mine we believe God or we do not. Everything is as it should be. I do not judge you. It is God's Word that will judge all of us in the last days (John 12:47-48). Sin will keep you out of the Kingdom and is why we all need to seek him while we can today. Tomorrow may be too late. We only have today. The disciples can meet everyday it is great but where in God's Word does it say in God's Word that God's 4th commandment is ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day? Fact is that there is no scriptures for this.
Who do we believe God or man? It is s fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. He we forgive all that seek him in repentance and ask his forgiveness. Known Sin will keep you out of God's Kingdom.

Your "sinful, dead body of sin" can be destroyed by it's crucifixion, burial and resurrection with Christ. (Rom 6:3-6)
The results"?
"For he that is dead is freed from sin." (Rom 6:7)
Your "skin" CANNOT make you commit sin.
Your "mind" controls what you do or don't do,

Okay, but website or not, teaching sinless perfection doctrine is wrong with or without a website...
AND then PJW comes back to trying in vain to set you up the very way ALL FALSE PROPHETS TRAIN THEIR PROSELYTES.
PJW said, "Do you deny that Jesus conquered sin while in the flesh? " A trained auto response to set you up to hit you, where they think you will have to agree with their false doctrine. Jehovah Witnesses and Mormons do the same thing; but when you ask a question that they do not have a trained auto response for, they are trained to just ignore the question. Amazing how alike the various psuedo-christian Cults really are.
Romans 8:10 (NASB)
[SUP]10 [/SUP] If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
