Featured All To Jesus I Surrender?

It is not possible in this vile flesh for any human to not yield to temptation a WHOLE lot(and that is putting it mildly) - saved or lost.

 

Why pray "lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil"? But with your attitude, it would be a sin for you to pray that doubting as you do.

 

Both, but I keep my sin in the temptation realm and shut it off praying the Lord's prayer as I do.

 

Wow! You have a WAY prouder attitude about your abilities than the apostle Paul had.

Romans 7:15-23 For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. 19For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.2For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

The answer to sin is the standing of God's elect in Christ Jesus and His righteousness that God has imputed to them, outside of any action on their part in resisting temptation, or any other human action.

 

Whatever is not of faith is sin. Also, Paul is describing unregenerate life under the law.

 

As I said, if you want to sit under preaching about the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, I will be glad to direct you to such. I think I have done what I personally can for you in this thread.

Have a nice remainder of this Saturday.

 

Was Paul semi-pelagian? That's where it comes from.

 

So you can make sin an acceptable lifestyle? No thanks.

 

Would you not be showing just a bit of pride here? And would that not be considered a sin? Just asking.

 

We are talking about churches that promote adultery through divorce and remarriage. Not about Churches that take a stand against abortion and accept repentant members.

 

My only beef is with churches that promote adultery. If someone has an abortion and repents, any church opposing abortion is suitable. And far different from those promoting adultery.

 

We already discussed Matt. 19:9 in-depth to the extent you could not give a defence for your views.

 

If you want to engage me in a discussion, list one at a time until we exhaust it. Confusion helps hide the results from the curious reader. What's your first question?

 

If you are bold enough to defend your views, state them one at a time so we don't get confused. It sounds as though you might not have the goods you think you have.
