.......continuing from the thread "Can a dead body sin".
Let us stay on this very topic since there is much that was left unanswered. You may bring forward any quotes from the "Can a dead body sin" thread.
HP brought up the issue of what he called "sinning believers" which I took to mean a believer who is wallowing in sin without a care for the shame he is putting on Christ. THIS IS NOT THE TOPIC OF THIS THREAD. If you want to talk about these kind of so called Christians feel free to begin a new thread on this.
This thread will be specifically for addressing whether or not a Christain can commit a sin, ANY SIN, or not.
Brother Bob's position is that a Christian cannot commit any sin that violates God's law, however, a Christian can commit other sin. If you agree with this please support it with scripture. If you disagree with this then please oppose it with scripture.
To begin we can define what sin is. The only way we can do this is by scripture.
1Jo 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
I have found no other definition for sin in the scriptures.
BBob brought up the fact that there is sin unto death and sin not unto death. This is true for scripture supports this statement....
1Jo 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin [which is] not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
The key phrase in this verse is "unto death". I believe BBob believes this to mean eternal death or both together. He can correct me if I am wrong. I believe it means physical death only, but this really isn't the OP topic.
What I want to know from BBob, or supporters of his view, is what sin does he see FROM SCRIPTURE that a Christian could possibly commit that is not in violation of the law?
God Bless! :jesus:
