sorry but you are not the bible. maybe thats your problem.
Nope. But I quoted what the bible said about the law. Thats YOUR PROBEM.
these scriptures are confirming what i been saying all alone, sin is the curse, not the law.
please explain to me why you think its a curse NOT to murder people? im just not understanding this one?
Your question makes no sense,
Since you can not KEEP the law. Your under a curse whether you murder someone, or you commit adultry or you just tell a little white lie (see James, if we keep the whole law yet stumble in one point, we are guilty of the WHOLE LAW


Stop focusing on other people sin, or who is doing what, and focus on your own sin, Then see how deep a sinner you really are, or continue to hide behind your watered down law and refuse to see how sinful You are

The choice is up to you.

Because you can not follow the law than stealing inherit the kingdom and Paul lie?

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 King James Version (KJV)
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

John is not talking about physical death ... A person can practice "sin that does incur death" and staying physically alive ... If the person dies because of something wrong that he did, John would not be differenciating among both kind of sins and warning about praying for those people. You can not get the point. :(
Um,, You never seen practicing drug addicts die? Practicing drunk drivers die? Practicing sexual perverts die from sexually transmitted diseases?

I am sorry, but they most certainly can die.

Thanks, as far as I know you believe for born again stealing inherit the kingdom only lose the reward, nothing to do with salvation because salvation by faith not by work

John was not talking about that death. You think he was ... He was talking about "sin that does incur death" and not praying about those who practice them.

All sins incur in death in the physical sense ... but John was NOT talking about that kind of death, or that kind of sins, but about a kind of sin that is not to pray for the ones who practice those. You still don't get the point: in all sins, there are some that are worse than the rest, and John calls them "sin that does incur death".

This is all your opinion.

I disagree and you have said nothing to change my mind,

Now I am moving on, we have come to a stalemate

Let me put an example maybe you can understand: in the first century there were some expelled from the congregation because they practiced "sin that does incur death" ... nobody would be praying for those. But in the first century they (those in the right positions for that) did not expelled all who commits all kind of sins, or the congregation would be totally empty ... cause we all are "sinners". That is the difference betwen both kind of sins John was talking about.

yes they are all sins, but thats not what i am asking. your avoiding the question again.
lets look at it again:
DONT MURDER.
this is a law, it means dont murder people. please explain how this law is a curse. why will you not answer this?

now i have already explained that sin is a curse, and murdering others is an example of someone under a curse. i want you to explain how NOT murdering is a curse. telling me i cant keep it is not an answer, its avoiding the question.

The bible already explained it

As I have a multitude of time

The law does not JUST say do not murder

It contains if a list of requirements. And it says if you want to fulfill this law you have to keep EVERY ONE OF THEM.. break JUST one, and your guilty of all

You can never commit adultry never commit murder, never commit any sexual sin, never steal, but if just once, you dishonor your parent, you are just as guilty as the one who cmmited murder, the one who commited sexual sin, the thief the liar, the cheat the coveter.

James explained this to you, and I showed you what he has said numerous times, why again do you fail to grasp what he is saying?
