Sin deniers verses sin confessors

[Aaron]

Is it just me, Aaron.....but over the past 14 years when every encounter I have with you is your disagreeing with me......I can't help but wonder? Is it just me? Am I not wearing enough deodorant and no one here is telling me!? LOL!

I think it's just me.

Because I never said there was an excuse for sin.

The feeling's mutual, I'm sure.

It's very possible.

You think Paul was referring to his PTSD when he wrote, "It is no more I that do it"?

Since you already asked something along these lines, and are begging the question, I cant help but think you're trying to lure me into a "gotcha" moment.

IF Paul was speaking of PTSD, his wording "Sin that dwelleth in me" would not mean that he was sinning. It would be referring to the fact that sin is the root cause of all disease.

No, not begging the question but assuming/pursuing the point you made, "In that state, it's impossible to sin; because you aren't doing it".

No, relax, I'm not out to getcha.

We both know he wasn't referring to PTSD and though he wrote in the first person in Ro 7 it was a description of the plight of us (believers) all, PTSD or not. All His children have this 'want to':

"for to will is present with me"

"the good which I would"

"me who would do good"

"For I delight in the law of God after the inward man"

...and we've all been brought to this realization about ourselves:

"Wretched man that I am!"

...and our need of Him:

"Who shall deliver me out of the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord."

....the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak Mt 26:41

You seem to be implying that you are not sinning during your PTSD episodes when it is in fact sin. Although Paul stated "it is no more I that do it", he acknowledged the sinfulness of it.
