1 John 1:10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Did you say you have not sinned?
All I did was show you the truth about what the scripture actually said when you changed the words, and for that you accused me of making God a liar. Do you mean to change this word also?

You radically misunderstood me again. For the moment i'll assume it's unintentional.
The sting of death is sin ((1 Cor 15:56)) - striving against sin is futile unless you can defeat death - and if you can, then it is death that the tip of the sword should be pointed toward, with the strong of the sword closing the line through which sin arcs. This is the great work if God in coming as Messiah and swallowing up the grave on His cross. Without this hew, striving against sin - swatting the blade of death - is worthless, only prolonging the inevitable.
This is righteousness according to keeping the law, as though it can be achieved in such a way.
If you take this again as an excuse to sin, you've again misunderstood me as much as if you think I would advise you to drop your guard and let your head be chopped off as long as you can get in one food sword thrust.

You brought up Stephen as a good example to look at, so it's not a derail at all.
If you don't know whether the accusation that grace = licence to sin has ever been levelled and thoroughly answered before you came along, dude, you've got catching up to do. i suggest first of all, read Romans. Then read it 70 more times.
I can certainly explain what i mean when i say that if the question of 'why shouldn't we just keep sinning' doesn't arise, that you probably aren't presenting the gospel accurately, but thus far in our conversation it doesn't appear you've comprehend anything i've written, so could we try to get to that point first?
I just saw this:

Banned
I read a lot of his posts. Can't figure out how it happened, but I know WHERE it happened. This thread.
Makes me wonder how many have been banned since this thread's been running.
Anybody have an idea?
Who were they?

Not sure how many, but every one earned the BAN. They refused to go by the posted rules. Proving they were not sinless after all.
1 Peter 2:13-15 (NKJV)
[SUP]13 [/SUP] Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake, whether to the king as supreme,
[SUP]14 [/SUP] or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good.
[SUP]15 [/SUP] For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men--
The website's Posted Rules are ordinances of man. There are a lot of new faces recently, because Bible-Discussion.com closed their website down. Bible-Discussion.com was much more lenient about enforcing their rules, so there is bound to be some who were used to getting away with violating rules there, who may be shocked when they discover, this site enforces their rules.
No need to apologize.....you should see my text messages when not wearing my reading peeps.....0 strength but still need...

Wow! That has to be the most prideful arrogant post I've ever read here!
When I blatantly caught him in a lie, regarding Scripture, and showed him the word he said didn't exist in Scripture in fact did, and he was so bursting with pride as to not admit his sin, I thought that was beyond arrogant.
But imagine thinking he is so perfect that he is able to cast stones at others!!
This is a truly sick and twisted individual.

"You do not have a right, to tell another user to not respond, to your posts."
Hi Preacher, tell me if I'm wrong but, I think Oncefallen was making the point that; I can tell a poster to "stop answering my post," and yet a written reply to, "mine or anyone's post" cannot be contested. And he, "the replier", has the right to post anything he wants to my post, but my rights are, "to put him on ignore" or "report his post", which is what I did.
Oncefallen's statement is true and here is why, (because he's the boss of course). I believe it is biblical to, "dis-fellowship" with someone who continually tries to feed unsuspecting people their false doctrine's. They can continue to put garbage on the table but I don't have to eat their garbage. And now I know my choice is to either, report their post or put them on Ignore." The ignore option is like, "Instant dis-fellowship."

You Know....the following truths really hammer home the struggle that can be found in a believer between the born again spirit and the still fallen nature in the flesh when one is immature, not fully transformed and or having a moment of weakness....
The spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak
James and the two souled man (double souled)
Paul doing what he said he would not do and not doing what he said he would do
Peter doing the exact opposite of what he said he would do
David after God's own heart and his moment with Bathsheba and Uriah
etc.....
