    HP: DHK is insistent that sin must remain, yea a believer must keep on sinning to be a believer.
    Is this not precisely what you have presented as your beliefs DHK?

    HP: Anyone that ceases from sin or even thinks they have ceased from sin is a liar according to him.

    Again, is this not precisely your position DHK?


    HP: His position is that for grace to abound sin must 'continue' to abound.

    Tell me why this is not a logical conclusion based upon the above issues? You say that it is impossible for a Christian to cease from sin, and we know that Christians receive grace, so why cannot I conclude as I did?

    That is about all that you can do is spew empty rhetoric in the face of scriptures that you reject and misinterpret. I suppose you believe you are literaly sitting in heavenly places (Eph. 2:6) rather than positionally "in Christ"?

    It is one thing to "live in the Spirit" and another to "walk in the Spirit" (Gal. 5:25). It is one thing to be "created in Christ Jesus" (Eph. 2:10) but another thing to be "seated in Christ in heavenly places" (Eph. 2:6). It is one thing to be "chosen in him before the foundation of the world" (Eph. 1:4) and to "walk in him" (Col. 2:6).

    It is one thing to be symboliclly in him through baptism (Rom. 6:4-5) and metaphorically be in him as the local congregational body of Christ and "members in particular" (1 Cor. 12:27).

    There is massive ignorance concerning the various senses that "in Christ" is used in the New Testament.

    Instead of pretending to know what I believe, quote me, by answering this post. Quit being ignorant!!
