No, I (a holy spirit by measure) do not ask for my own forgiveness, cause I (a holy spirit by measure) am not guilty of any sin. I ask for forgiveness for others like Jesus, but I certainly do not ask for forgiveness for being holy. When Jesus prayed that prayer, was He lying and saying that He needed forgiveness?
Do you not read scripture? This prayer was for not Him.....it was for THEM....for US...let's read....
Matt.6
[1] Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
Take heed they YE do not....
[2] Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
When THOU doest thine alms...
[3] But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
But when THOU doest alms....
[4] That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
That THINE alms may be.....
[5] And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
When THOU prayest.....
[6] But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
When THOU prayest....
[7] But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
But when YE pray....
[8] Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
Before YE ask Him.....
[9] After this manner therefore pray ye:
AFTER THIS MANNER THEREFORE PRAY
YE:
This prayer is for US! This was instructed by God. This was not an optional prayer. We are TOLD to ask God to forgive our sins. If we so not.....we break God's law. Thus we sin.
So again..... You claim that,
No, I (a holy spirit by measure) do not ask for my own forgiveness, cause I (a holy spirit by measure) am not guilty of any sin.
But by NOT asking for forgiveness you commit sin.
But more importantly..... by saying that you are not guilty of any sin is not supported by scripture! Having that mind set is far worse.....
