Yes you could. Yet the forgiven is not an excuse to do wrong to others at all
See the Epistles to the Corinthians from Paul
'They could use and did use this truth being forgiven as an excuse to drink up all the wine, eat all the food, without care to others. that needed food. Drank up the wine too much, got drunk and took women against their wills and yes did stuff. Not good for my Soul, is that good for your soul?
Since forgiven by God through Son and it remains as forgiven, even if one sins again by God, just not to be taken for granted and do harm to anyone else ever.
Phil 3:11-12
They, were putting their wrongs behind them as if no punishment would ever happen to them, being forgiven.
They misused the truth and harmed others. "Yes forgiven" even if sinned again and they did
Then seen in 2 Cor 7 they truly repented and saw the grace given was never meant to be taken for granted and harm others.
If anyone does not have compassion for others, then one is not saved by God yet. These that do not care some many maybe fake like they do care bd do not, Ever been harmed by others that you thought were caring?
Those that do that. God on the day of Judgment will say go away I never knew you, those that have taken this grace for granted to get stuff here on earth. Today is te day to repent to God personally, between God and you personally
Then the new God imputes to you will do, automatically 1 Cor 13:4-7. Love with mercy from God to all to repent to God personally and will see new in love and mercy too,, thank you
Lover is for all to all that begins in mercy to all first, thank you Lord
Yes from what is in me by God to me, your turn
By God and Son, not me it is a personal relationship between God and you, I am not worthy, God is and will reveal the truth to you, if you are sincere otherwise not
Then if faith alone is sufficient then the comment faith without work is dead is a lie. Fascinating.
Turn to God and listen from within. God will reveal as you need to know as you grow. or not. Many stop asking because they get a no answer, most hate No. So end up with itching ears and got to others in this worlds religion. Is that good for the Soul?
You ask and receive not. Is it possible you do not get, because you will misuse it> Only want it to spend it on your own pleasures? Yet many continue asking and then get, only to their own disasters, happened to me. Be careful wa you ask for!
I did that in past, not anymore, thanking God even deeper, wider and higher than ever saw at first. Oh and not that I am better than anyone else I am not, so, no matter how much God matures me or anyone else is perfect to remain humble in that
2 Cor 12:7-10
Law of this earth still in place to stop the Law breakers, never meant for anyone to misuse grace, yet this that do, get deep troubles, I trust God to tell you not good fr you to do tat or anything harmful to anyone else
I am hearing you not a believer in the risen Son given to us by Father to do righteously
So sorry, you d not ee truth yet
So sorry you are still of the first born flesh and not yet born again yet by God
You take for granted and we are done I leave you to your own demise
Thanks
Is that what you said or not? I asked if someon news saved could they rob a bank and have that sin forgive you said yes.
The problem is your hearing is faulty
It can be forgiven but people still sin after being saved and sin separates us from God.
I know where I am..my salvation is not based on how someone here or anywhere personally believes. I read those red letters where He said if you believe in Him that sent me you have everlasting life. For God so loved the world He gave His only son so what who ever believes in Him will not die but have everlasting life.
This born from above was not a simple choice. See He found me He came to give me life and give it more abundantly. I read those red letters and believing Jesus is who He said He was John 3 16-17. So now what I have to make sure I obey make sure I keep the 10 commandment or so some kind of good works to keep this? So it was just a thought.. just a choice nothing more? See what He started in me He will finish. What was written before that "being confident of this very thing". He will keep His promise. Faith, can't see it can't feel it yet believing, knowing no guessing no wondering but knowing aka works. Yeah when I was young the enemy can in told me not saved.. those thoughts so forth. Things the sweet holy Spirit of GOD never does. All these years later 64y never once have I wanted to know YEAH freely sin haha. Yeah never had that thought other then on some "Christian" site.
Since this here is milk were talking about. Those good works just flow from me/us meaning part of me oh loves to sin yet the other that always at battle never wants to sin always.. every moment of ever day..oh I so want to worship praise Him in the good the bad.. and praise Him.. always hearing music that in some way give Him glory and praise.. nothing else. One I start.. it just grows and grows.. and you can't stop praising Him. Just Him dying for the world oh.. it is so odd how it never gets old how can this keep growing within. Sorry getting lost here. That new man was created in me.. that is who I am I am not some man/human.. I am not of this world this i not my home that should shine in me. I am a citizen of Heaven. My Dad is .. this is hard.. always been my best friend..yet its hard to see that because He is the great I am abba Father. The prayer your will on earth as it is in heaven.
New creation.... that's me any sin this body does is no longer me but sin that is in me. Do you know who what you are now or is all this just a simple choice and you have to work at keeping doing good works or do they just flow happens? It can be very hard fighting the flesh and doing good but.. there is no pressure here He is with me.. in me.. yeah you find out do I really truly believe all this? Do I really believe those promises He gave to all that will believe? I heard this preacher talking about the 1000y rain. Don't get stuck there is not about its real or not lol. See going by what he said if you believe that..we have been changed already we are like Christ there but others are not and they see face to face Jesus and believe. Then they see us.. I wonder will they marvel at how we believed in Him yet never saw Him. Jesus said.. how blessed are we that never seen heard yet believe.

yes, I stated: "If a person honestly repent" --- that shows Christians sin and they must go to the Father and repent. is there any person that has not sinned only in their mind?
Lots of people sin for lots of reasons, and despite that God shows through out his word he still loves them, whatever happens in the future for anyone, can only Be changed by God, so really the best thing to do is get right with God. He can change your future
The James 2 'faith without works is dead ' has context about what believers do with faith they already have. Its about how a person's faith profits others.
So..It doesn't mean no salvation if no works.. or that good works are guaranteed to happen for the believer. Its regarding THE faith..eg..bible studying, worship, prayer etc..not salvic faith.
So I agree with what you are saying here, but its important not to hold eternal life status depending on good behaviour.
Can it be; that every human being will go to heaven? Even if not being a christian in this life ?
