I don't live in sin, no.
I have sinned in the past. And there's a possibility that I could sin in the future,



No, I pointed out the false doctrine of the reformers who claim they live in sin every day and sin daily in thought word and deed claiming it's not possible to stop living in sin as they claim God put sin in them when they were formed in the womb so they are born sinners

Hey man, if you feel the need to sin all the time have at it. Doesn't effect me on judgement day at all.

Have you ever though about believing this passage and accepting it as actually being true???

1 John 1:7 - if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin

I have never said I live in sin nor have I read any other post such a thing.
A person that continues to live in sin has never been save.
We are told in Hebrews that God will chastise His children and if you are not chastised you are not one of His children.
You are judging people as lost because they admit they do sin from time to time saying they are living is sin, not really striving to live in obedience.
And be sure if you live very long you will sin several times. There is no might about it.
 
What some do not understand is that some believers have a much more difficult time to put sin out of their lives than others.
A person that has never been associated with believers before, knows little or nothing about what living in obedience means, is still living in an ungodly home or environment, is not being taught what is sin and what is not, he or she may fail every day.
And then you have these people who say you must be obedient or you will lose your salvation, and they just give up.
I met one lady years ago who was about to kill herself because she could not seem to please her pastor's demand that she must live without sin or lose her salvation.
I got her to come to our church and+ attend a new believer's class, and she soon became a very happy and fruitful believer.
People should be very careful what you post and teach. You often do much more harm than good to young, immature
believers.
