You were born without sin as an innocent baby, you dear sweet ninny. Providing your defintion of "sin" would be helpful.

Great! I was that way from birth. No sin.
Oh sure, I pooped my diaper when I was 9 months, took two cookies instead of one for desert when I was five, got an A- one time in gym class, spilled a spoon full of milk at breakfast when I was a senior in high school, and married beneath my parent's expectations but after each f*** up I was severely lashed and by the time the scabs went away, I learned my lesson.
I guess you could say I was saved by the blood. Kind of a blood sacrifice for my self-righteousness.

Brother, or Pastor,

Have u not heard of Romans? No one is righteous, not not one. Let God be true and all be lier.

Most of the epistle spoke about the grace of God for those who sin, and u r saying no sin in u. What r u teaching?

Again, if anything that is out of the teaching of the Bible, it remains as a special experience of your own. Not to be mentioned and form as theology. Less u be curse as mentioned in revelation 22:18/19.

What actually u r trying to proof? Glorifing God? I don't see that.

Sorry

That's impossible, saved people sin too, the Bible says that ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God

The Bible also declares, that we as saints sin and not know it, we don't even realise that we are sinning half of the time

That's why we should repent everyday, even if we are not aware of our sin, cause if we die in our sins we go to hell, even if we don't realise that we've sinned.

Sorry I couldn't give any scriptures use your concordance

Just remember to keep asking him to forgive your sins. We are human so we sin lots. Glad Jesus saved you.

Someone said here you still sin but you are in.

Another said you are declared "not guilty" despite of your sins.

These are what you get when you base Salvation not on what the Bible really says. Ask yourself again: When was it first taught that merely accepting Jesus Christ gives you absolute assurance of salvation? And who taught it first? I'll answer for you: It was the Father of Reformation, Martin Luther. Same man who said:

"No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day. Do you think such an exalted Lamb paid merely a small price with a meager sacrifice for our sins? Pray hard for you are quite a sinner.”
(A Letter From Luther to Melanchthon, Letter 99, 1 August 1521).

Now contrast this to what Paul said:

"See, then, the kindness and severity of God: severity toward those who fell, but God’s kindness to you, PROVIDED you remain in his kindness, otherwise you too will be cut off" (Rom. 11:22–23)

"Whoever thinks he is standing secure should take care not to fall" (1 Cor. 10:11–12)

"work out your salvation in fear and trembling’ (Phil. 2:12)

Now Paul wasn't writing to pagans to convert them. He was writing to people who were already christians. If these people were already absolutely secured of salvation then everything Paul wrote were superfluous.

The early church also had some things to say about salvation:

The Didache
"Watch for your life's sake. Let not your lamps be quenched, nor your loins unloosed; but be ready, for you know not the hour in which our Lord comes. But you shall assemble together often, seeking the things which are befitting to your souls: for the whole time of your faith will not profit you, if you be not made complete in the last time" (Didache 16 [A.D. 70]).

Hermas
"And as many of them . . . as have repented, shall have their dwelling in the tower [i.e., the Church]. And those of them who have been slower in repenting shall dwell within the walls. And as many as do not repent at all, but abide in their deeds, shall utterly perish. . . . But if any one relapse into strife, he will be cast out of the tower, and will lose his life. Life is the possession of all who keep the commandments of the Lord" (The Shepherd 3:8:7 [A.D. 80]).

Ignatius of Antioch
"Be pleasing to him whose soldiers you are, and whose pay you receive. May none of you be found to be a deserter. Let your baptism be your armament, your faith your helmet, your love your spear, your endurance your full suit of armor. Let your works be as your deposited withholdings, so that you may receive the back-pay which has accrued to you" (Letter to Polycarp 6:2 [A.D. 110]).

Irenaeus of Lyons
"[Paul], an able wrestler, urges us on in the struggle for immortality, so that we may receive a crown and so that we may regard as a precious crown that which we acquire by our own struggle and which does not grow upon us spontaneously. . . . Those things which come to us spontaneously are not loved as much as those which are obtained by anxious care" (Against Heresies 4:37:7 [A.D. 189]).

Tertullian
"Again, we [Christians] affirm that a judgment has been ordained by God according to the merits of every man" (To the Nations 19 [A.D. 195]).

Arrogance - the sin of pride -

Jesus set up a religion of condemnation and tricks - he won't let you off that easily.

The act of bragging has brought you the sin of pride and what cometh beofre the fall?

1Jo 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1Jo 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.
