    This is wishful thinking. “A wife is bound as long as her husband is living. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes (only someone in the Lord).” (1 Corinthians 7:39) (NET)

    Would you have lied in faith and love to protect Jews from Hitler?

    There you go again with your evasion tactics of changing the direction of the thread with an off the wall question.

    So if we must repent to be forgiven, this would include separating from an adulterous marriage? Or an abortionist stopping abortion? etc?

    This is like someone who the Lord saves, and yet still struggles to resist porn or drinking or drugs, are they lost until they fully overcome those addictions then?
    And jesus stated to us the ONLY unpardonable sin would be to Blaspheme the Holy Spirit, and that would seem to be continual rejection of jesus to save you!

    No, just that we all will still ahve sin to deal with until we die, or get raptured! Different maturity levels, as newly saved not expected to be walking as they ought as well as those who have been saved now for years!

    Or someone is alcoholic ever taste beer again, period? Someone addicted to porn is saved, but reading another playboy undoes that?

    Could you be saved if jesus commanded you to sin no more?

    Do we have sins that we mollycoddle? Or do we have sins we repent of?

    He tells us all to sin no more. But some love their sins more than they love him. That's the problem.

    Are we saved by our works, or by trusting in the Person of Jesus alone?

    Generally speaking, this is known as the begging the question fallacy.

    This is also known as a works based method of attempting to obtain God's grace.

    I would certainly hope that a person seeking forgiveness of these activities would cease doing them.

    How do you repent from sin if you do not repent from it? But nurse it along trying to be lukewarm?

    That is due to us still having sin natures, that principle of sin in us even after saved that wants to disobey God.

    If Jesus saved us from our sins, it includes sanctification and holiness. And if this does not exists, he didn't save you from your sins. You only think he did.

    No, it is called flesh battling the Spirit. And you cannot make excuses for indulging the flesh and expect to overcome it at the same time.
