What business is it of yours ?
It seems to like this upsets you
“Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.”
Luke 15:1-2 KJV

Does this upset you ?
“But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall be given into your bosom.
For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: he is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.”
Luke 6:35-38, 46-49 KJV
What I’m saying is if a person can’t forst aconolwefge thoer sins they probably are trying to look at all those dirty sinners around elsewhere and never got around to looking in tbe mirror
look at Jesus doctrine not the law of Moses one makes you judgemental and want to stone sinners to keep the camp “holy “ the other is when Jesus came and lives sinners enough to die for them and teach them e way home to God
I am a Christian flaws but you knowing this doesn’t affect me in any way I have to do this like you do
“But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, And every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.”
Romans 14:10-13 KJV
You should start looking for your own sins in the light of the ofnthe fispel so you can do this
“but if we walk in the light,( his word ) 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. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ( hard to do this when your “ sinless “)
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”
1 John 1:7-10 KJV
some folks won’t do that especially throwe of the self righteous crows who think themselves the judge of all the “sinners” that come to Jesus to be saved

Yeah I had responded to your prior message go back to that one . You told me I couldn’t possibly know someone else . Because i said I know people who say they are filled with the spirit and reject and also reject his word. That’s just an observation man from
People I’ve known on my life and talked to

You mean Jesus death and resurrection found in the gospel that atones for man’s sins ? Why wouldn’t I have interest in the gospel ?
Im saying im not interested in wrasing his words because he died for me that’s the reason I believe him . Because he said he would die for the people and rose up three days later he proved his words can be trusted
im not interested in the Joseph prince doctrine of positional righteousness no offense it’s just not for me
