An answer to the sinless day

[Diggin in da Word]

yes, and no. one first has to go to New York.

Wonder why they did not use the Boardwalk in NJ as a departure to swim?

or one of the famous Eastern Coast beaches?

Second try:

"Fulfill the lusts" is not the same thing as "having lusts". Jesus said that if you lust after a woman, you have commited adultery with her in your heart. So just experiencing the lust is sin, whether or not you fulfill it.

But if you walk in the Spirit, you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh, even if you can't help but experience them at times.

Well said.

[Diggin in da Word]

Having lustful thoughts constitutes adultery already according to Jesus. So it is the same as fulfilling the lust of the flesh. It is the same as if one physically committed the sin.

Just looking at a woman is not sinful. It is when you look at her to lust after her in your heart. There is the sin.
