That means you can do whatever you like.
As I stated no one needs a license to sin..... I have yet to drive by the BUREAU of SINNING LICENCE.

We sin period.

As well to make such a statement that grace is a "license to sin" basically means you do not believe the Gospel...that all sin was dealt with at the cross.

I thought it was a thread about salvation. Not of Works would mean that the thread is not about works.

And I haven't said anything about sanctification.
It’s about how to be saved vs how not to be saved
not what we do or do not do after

Sin is an issue in that those who are born again do not practice sin. YOU said "those who have seen God or know God do not sin (as in practice) and you also said that a person who is born again does not live in sin. YOUR WORDS.

Is the New Birth and knowing God a salvation issue?
Your missing the whole point
you and I have no power to decide who is practicing sin
hence it is a non topic

We should focus on serving not worried about sin. God will take care of that will he not?

If that person KNOWS GOD. IF that person has been born again. If that person has been saved.

And you have said that people that fit this description do not continue, abide, practice sin, did you not?
You don’t get it!

Are you indifferent to what you strongly affirmed weeks ago?

Tell me, if I am living in continual, ongoing sin, does the possibility exist that I was never saved?

Notice I said possibility

If I LEAVE my wife, and start having multiple partners and continue in that way for the rest of my life, IS IT POSSIBLE that I was never saved, that I was a professer but not a possesser of eternal life?

No one's judging anyone. I am applying the question to myself.

YES or NO?
I am not God, here you are asking me to judge a hypothetical not knowing thIs whole persons life. Based on 1 sin

and yes it is possible. If not you just condemned yourself and many others. All who sin in some fashion the rest of there lives
Living in sin is NOT one sin issue. It is a lifestyle of living completely is sin. Unable to not sin because you are lost


king David lived in adultry as did Abraham who also had multiple wives

are they lost?
