We do not agree.

Romans 6:2
How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

Romans 6:6
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

If any Believer tries to do what the scripture says do in their own will-power, strength, and ability, the sin nature that was made dormant (not eliminated) when you where born-again, will be activated (the works of the flesh will manifest - Gal. 5:19-21). The Law says do - Grace says done.

The proof that the sin nature was not eliminated is we continue to die and get sick!

No, true born again believers in Christ no longer have a "sin nature," we have a "spiritual nature."

Nature means to be "born that way" - I am what my DNA is.

All BORN in ADAM will die.

All BORN in Christ will live.

Our bodies will die or be changed in a twinkling of an eye because our bodies are seeds that are to be sown in the Earth - just as Christ's body.

Our bodies will be REDEEMED when we are resurrected because our bodies are NOT under the curse of the law anymore, IN CHRIST - we have been given eternal life.

I don't walk by the works of the flesh. I walk by the fruit of the spirit.

Bible study question? If the Believer is frustrating grace by their Faith being misplace; by not placing and maintaining their Faith exclusively in Christ and Him Crucified - will grace continue to much more abound over sin in the life of a Believer?

Grace requires sacrifice. It doesn't apply when there is no sacrifice.
