Why does everyone claim they love jesus' but dont keep his commandments but sin willfully,and make a mock at sin,asking to God to forgive them after they curse someone out or just finish fornicating? why do we treat the Lord with such disrespect...Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? and if the righteous scarecely make it...where shall the sinner and ungodly be?

The bible says Jesus came to save us from our sins not in our sins,let us understand the question please,ppl make mistakes not sin wilfully,i dont serve a weak God,if God says we can live without sin,he gives us power that we can do so

Jesus says in the book of John...IF you LOVE me you "WILL" keep my commandments...WILL,not maybe,not sometimes,not when you feel like it

Those that say there is no way you can go without sin are really saying that God is a liar and Satan has all the power. It is Satan that says you can't keep the commandments of God but God says, YES, you can. I choose to believe God, not Satan!!!

We all sin daily dear all have sinned in the eyes of God. Even in our thoughts. Let he without sin throw the first stone. If I'm not mistaken our Lord said this. More importantly judge not lest ye be judged. You don't know what is in a person's heart and what they talk to God about. None of us are perfect . We're human and continually make mistakes. You never know what a person has been taught or what has happened to them in life. I know that you aren't perfect and neither am I. Lighten up and pray for them if it concerns you. Criticizing people for their sin's only drives them away. Unless you are Christ it's not your place to pass judgment on anyone's actions or words. You too will stand before God and give an account.What will you say when asked "Why did you judge my children?"

A person can not live without sin. It is impossible. We were born into sin. That is why we have a forgiving God. Also the Christian faith doesn't live by the Laws of Moses we live by the commandments of Jesus...
Matthew 22:37-39, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all of your strength and mind. And love your neighbor as yourself. For this sums up all the laws of all the prophets."
God only expects us to live by these, He knows we will all mess up. Such is life.

i assume you're not teaching sinless perfection here. if so, read 1 john 1. otherwise when you say a christian is committing a sin willfully and make a mock at sin, then you are not talking about a genuine, biblical christian. a biblical christian is one who hates sin and runs from sin and does everything possible to stay away from temptations to sin. so for the most part i agree with your stance. no christian will willfully trample the grace and mercy of God just so they can sin. if God has put his spirit within you, you will not make a habit of sinning.
now christians do stumble into sin, but they do not or should not jump into sin or look forward to sin. if this is the case, then you are simply dealing with a false convert or a professing christian. the new testament writers warn us about these all throughout their letters. hope this helped

A certain woman was caught in the very act of adultery. She was to be stoned. The mob was there with the stones in their hands ready to hurl them at her. Jesus came by and bent down and wrote in the sand. Then He stood and looked around at the crowd and said, He that is without sin cast the first stone. They all dropped their stones and left. Jesus looked at her and said, Woman where are your accusers? She said I have none. He said neither do I accuse you, go sin no more. The one that could have pointed an accusing finger did not. Why do you think this was?

Can any true Christian spend Sunday watching NFL games? Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy. There is nothing holy about an NFL game. And it would be easy to avoid this sin. Don't buy a ticket or turn on the tv.

The whole point of loving Jesus, is because he died for us, for our sins, and no one will ever love us like He does. yes, we asked for forgivness of our sins, but that does not mean we stop sinning. When you mature as a Christian, you work on becomming more like Jesus, and realize that sinning is human nature. You can rid sin and continue to ask for giveness. But there will always be more trials, more thoughts, more sin. In fact, WE WILL NEVER BECOME PERFECT LIKE GOD, BECAUSE HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN EVER BE PERFECT.

What ever happened to "thou shall not judge"? By your question, you are making a judgment towards others. Hypocrite.

Matthew 7:20-22
20Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?'
