Featured All To Jesus I Surrender?

Paul teaches us how to avoid sinning while it is a temptation by walking in the Spirit.

 

Temptation? Yes, But Paul teaches us how to nip it in the bud before it becomes sin.

 

You can never, ever live perfectly on this earth, not even for a short time. This is your and my and every human being's condition - saved or lost.

Genesis 6:5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

 

You are misrepresenting me. Can you not sin by killing temptation? Paul teaches this.

 

Resist once, then what about the next time, and the next time, and the next time, and the next time, and the next time, and the next time...

 

Do as Paul says 24/7. It's a lifestyle of resisting the devil and the flesh. It's strange you are unaware of this. I do it in my dreams too.

 

If you take Paul's line of thought, it becomes a habit ingrained into your wicked flesh. When temptation wells up, you can overcome it by changing the channel of your imaginations and thoughts. We are wicked beyond belief, but with the temptation, God provides a way out. = Basic Christianity.

 

You are making excuses for giving in to temptation. If you hate sin, it's easy not to give in to it.

 

Are you being serious? Surely you are pulling our legs.

 

Have you ever been chastised by the Lord for sinning? John says we cannot sin if born-again. This doesn't mean what you think. God chastises us so severely sometimes, you never want to experience it again.

 

Not routinely. If I slip, I immediately repent. But slipping is the exception, not the rule.

 

Wow! Just wow! You are in need of serious spiritual help. I suggest you find a faithful gospel preacher and sit under the teaching of Christ's gospel. I can suggest a couple to you that you can sit under via SermonAudio if there is no one in your area.

 

1 John 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

 

Have you ever asked God to lead you not into temptation? But deliver you instead? It works, but if you ask doubting as you do, even the asking is sin.

 

I am probably the worst sinner I know. I would probably trade places with you in a heartbeat. But you do not need to yield to temptation. It's only an excuse to continue walking in the flesh instead of the Spirit.

 

Yes. And, yes, God has delivered me. But you are sounding like some sort of Semi-Pelagian.
