I think we should also add the following to the definition of sin Sin is defined as the thought of foolishness (Proverbs 24:9) All the temptations we face stop or continue at the door of our thought.

If, as you quoted, Christ faced temptation and did not give in to it. He released us from the power of sin and made us no longer slaves to sin. Why then do you still believe it is impossible for us not to sin? just curious

Behind every sin is an initial invitation to go against the will of God. There is no compulsion. We retain the right to say either yes or no, to yield or not to yield ourselves to it.

As per their teachings, I still say my understanding of them is far different from what you and kaylagrl seem to believe. As per the heretics, I follow Paul to say, as written in Philippians 3:13, - this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth unto those...

This is news to me. My understanding of them is way different. You are entitled to your opinion.

The last time I checked, Gentiles means non - Jews. And, the nations practicing Islam are not part of the Jewish nation. We call God, the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob, which means He has a Jewish name. I do not speak Hebrew language but I call him God which is english. In my local...

Oh! kaylagrl. Let's be honest and put sentiments apart.

Purely based on your post only. No intention of taking it further than that.

Wow! this is news to me. hearing it for the first time. Though I do not know how the Holy Spirit used you, I am aware that the Pentecostals are more into performance of Miracles than the RC. These acts of miracles are prevalent and are seen every now and then on cable news etc. Why should the...

Please see my response to your previous post on #40.

To the Muslim world, the bible comprises the old and the new testaments. In the old testament, there are instances where wars were fought and enemies killed at the behest of the God Almighty. Our understanding of the Scripture is different from their understanding but that is what they believe...

But, the law remains intact and valid even today. That Jesus fulfilled the law does not mean we are not called to fulfil it ourselves. What changed is only the methodology of fulfilling the law. Christ Jesus gave us a new commandment, to love one another because it is through love, the...

No. That is not what I am talking about. I believe it is just your opinion that Roman Catholic Church is not part of Christendom.

No. I am referring to the atrocities in Christianity

Are you saying Christians do not murder, kill, rape fornicate, indulge in human trafficking, adultery etc etc. What the op said is not peculiar to Islam alone. Man's inhumanity to man cuts across borders and religions unfortunately, christianity inclusive.

First, thank you for stating why you disagreed with my post. Yes I know Islam as a religion does not believe in the fatherhood of God, the Trinity and Incarnation but that does not mean we do not serve the same God. You may be wrong about their edicts because I know they preach and teach all...

Oh! it is good you smiled and passed because you may not have had a suitable response to what I said. What I am sayingis that we should first remove the log in our own eyes so that we can see clearly, to remove the log in another's eyes. I will just copy and paste below one of Pottersclay's...

Magenta, what about the atrocities happening in Christendom today? I do not think your assertion about Islam is right considering that our Christendom does not fare better.

I do not want to say the Holy Spirit bears witness to it which is what it is. If one, as a son, is having a true close relationship with the Father, he will know his standing with the father. He may not know someone else's standing with the father except it is revealed to him. That is why...
