    This is chocked full of unbiblical statements. It boggles my mind.

    You said this...


    You say you’re able to live holy, but you’re weak, so you can’t. That’s a clear contradictory statement.

    If you say you can but don’t because you’re weak, it means, in reality, you can’t. Can’t be any clearer than that.

    This is pretty childish brother.

    It's not a contradiction.

    I am able because God lives in me.

    I sometimes make a decision to walk in the flefl, and then regret it.

    Did I have the ability to walk in a manner pleasing to God? Yes

    Did I choose not to? Yes.

    It is that simple.

    And proves you can’t be holy as He is holy.

    I can say I can bench 500 lbs, but I am weak. If I am weak, I can’t do it.

    It’s not childish, just showing you crossing yourself.

    No you're not. You're showing how childish you are acting by being argumentative for no good reason.

    You are being intentionally difficult. Terrible annology.

    You're saying God calls me to be Holy and doesn't give us the means to do so?

    Take that train to the station. Your theology is flawed.

    We all called to be holy, correct. And when we fall short, it drives us to the Christ.

    Being called to do something when He knows we’re not able to do it, points us, drives us to Him.

    When I said "I am weak" it was because in weakness I choose the flesh sometimes, when I could have chose the will of God.

    Brother, don’t get your dander up. I am just showing you where you are crossing yourself.

    When the Christ told the adulterous women to “go and sin no more”, He meant it. He commanded it. Was she able to “go and sin no more”? No.

    I agree. And that shows us we can’t be holy as He is holy whilst living in the flesh.

    That's not how this life in Christ works brother. You choose to sin, not because you weren't given the abity not to (by the power of The Holy Spiirt) but because you Chose to sin.

    Using a narrative to describe how sanctification works isn't your best angle here.

    I agree. And by choosing to sin, it shows our weakness. That shows we can not be holy as He is holy while in this tabernacle of flesh.
