Had the poll included the response listed in the OP: "I need to review the rules of scientific notation" ...
That would have been my answer.
And which one of you thinks you only sin one to five times a day????
How often do you sin?

There are two answers to this question for the believer. Number 1, I never sin because I am in Christ and when the Father views me He only sees His Son. I'm covered by the blood and have the righteousness of Christ imputed to me. Rom 4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin , because he is born of God. Number 2, all that I am in this flesh is sin, Rom 7:18 For I know that in me(that is in my flesh) dwelleth no good thing. Rom 7:21 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from this body of death ?

I'm sure I sin more than I realize, but much less than I used to sin.
I've stopped focusing and obsessing over sin in my life. I believe we are called to obedience and sanctification. Christ has taken care of the sin issue already. I need to trust in grace and move forward in the practices of sanctification by being obedient to Christ in all things. That requires a forward-looking theology that focuses on practical holiness, not looking back at sin. -

Here is yet another one of those scripture, Isa 43:25 I, even I am he that blotteth out thy transgression for mine own name sake and will not remember thy sins. Isa 38:17 Behold for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul hath delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou has cast all of my sins behind thy back

These are great scriptures no doubt, but they speak to how God deals with out sin, not to whether or not he is even aware of them.

Micah 7:18-19 Who is a God liken to thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage ? he retaineth not his anger forever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depth of the sea. As God told Moses to tell the children of Israel to strike the two side post and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat, for I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the first born in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgement: I am the Lord. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where you are: and when I SEE THE BLOOD I will pass over you. When God looks upon his children the only thing he see's is the blood of Christ an atonement for their sins, Exodus 12.

I Think We Have to Be Honest About Sin....
For instance, we know there are at least the sin of commission and the sins of commission, BUT when we get serious here are seven ways that we sin, often without even knowing we sinned:
1) Unintentional Sin
2) Besetting (recurring) Sins
3) Destroying God’s Temple [your spiritual and physical being]
4) Sinning Unto Death
5) Committing the Millstone Sin
6) Taking the Mark of the Beast & Blaspheming The Holy Spirit (you need to see the link for full disclosure of these sin).
SEE:http://thebigpicmin.wordpress.com/2010/09/07/biblical-sins-the-six-levels-of-sin/
Thus, I pray and ask God to forgive me of things I know I did as well as the many more sins I did unintentionally, or out of bad habits, and still learning on how what I do may have been offending God for a long time!
I am confident of one thing QF; He still forgives me for the many sins I commit! :applause:
This is a great poll, as it should get us thinking about a subject we tend to ignore, or selectively live through! -

That is relative to inheriting and or entering the kingdom of God? -

For example, does it give one permission to go to a "Victoria Secret" website, gawk at women in lingerie and then just say: "I am looking and admiring beautiful women without giving into temptation."
The premise, as stated, gives rise to a slippery slope that can go down a very steep slope. The command of the Bible is to keep our eyes focused on those things that are pure and lovely and will not draw us into temptation.
I am sure that when the Israelite men went among the Moabitish women they were attracted to them visually. Was that attraction sin? Or, was it just the actual giving into the attraction and the resultant fornication that was sin? God forbad them not to mix with the Gentiles for a good reason.

The video came as a result of the rape that was made so public in India, and also because of the way that women are being treated in India. -
I remember a year or so, someone here at BB put it like this. If you see an attractive girl walking down the street and she catches your eye, that is temptation. If you circle the block so you can look at her again, that is sin.
