What is this utter hyprocrisy of some on this list? Why one can be a practicing homosexual, or any other deviant/wicked character, and we are told God accepts them as they are, BUT Lord have mercy on ones soul if they dare testify that God has cleansed them from all sin or that God is fulfilling His promises in ones life in keeping them clean and pure from sin. Oh no, we can call evil good, because we count into the kingdom the evil wicked doers, and call good evil by counting out of the kingdom any that would testify of God's cleansing and keeping power.
I seem to remember God warning us of such by His prophets of old.
Isa 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Even you admit that you have sinned after initial gospel conversion and can repent. Do you think that your life time from the time of gospel repentance you will never sin more than one time afterwards??????? You are surely writing like you do!!!
Have you ever pondered these verses written to Christians:
Heb. 12:1 ¶ Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,......
4 ¶ Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
Apparently your kind of Christianity was not the kind Paul wrote about above. He wrote about struggling with sin that so "EASILY" beset "US"! He talked about such an intense struggle which they had not yet attained in "striving against sin."
According to your kind of Christianity God should never have to chasten any of his children as they should all be living above sin and without any stuggle at all. -

This is the man that has now been banned four times and I hope you can see why. Every single solitary charge he makes here is a pure lying slander straight from hell, the hell he is going to if God does not grant him repentance.

HP and Moriah - let me speak to your wives and children and then we will know just how sinless you are. We already see pride and I'm sure we may find out a few more. ;)

Oh, and please tell us hw many days you have not sinned please. -
I personally believe you could be setting yourself up for a defamation of character lawsuit. -
Note clearly the insulting remarks made by Biblicist of another poster and his clear judging of such a ones salvation.....besides posting under two identities by one person, yet another violation of the rules.

One question for HP and this should end the debate;
Are you without sin? -

The other thief did repent, but how you get that he repented of unbelief is strange. Where does the scripture say that he did not believe before and started to believe when he was on the cross? Where does the scripture say the thief said he was repenting of unbelief? The thief confessed that he deserved the punishment for which he was being tortured and put to death.
steaver said: ↑Maybe you could give me he scripture reference. However, we do know that Judas seen Jesus' miracles and still refused to believe! One thief believed, one did not.Click to expand...
This is an important topic. There are those who say we cannot be sorry for sins before being saved and that there is only repentance for unbelief.
steaver said: ↑Moriah, don't fall into the same mindset as HP thinking everyone is a Calvinist. You will end up like HP, obsessed with Calvinist.Click to expand...

Moriah said: ↑You miss the whole point. Some on the board say, “to repent does not mean one is sorry for their sins,” and that no one can be sorry for their sins until after Jesus saves them. However, if one is not sorry for their sins, then it is not true repentance. Who would believe in Jesus and repent of sins but not really be sorry? It is a false teaching that can do much harm, for we are to repent of sins.Click to expand...
The Bible does not teach that repentance is sorrow or sorry for your sins.
--Judas was sorry for his sin, went out and hung himself. He was not saved just because he was sorry for his sins. That is the false teaching that does much harm.
You don't have a proper definition of repentance. How do you expect to teach others on this subject?
