If there is still sin in the world,Can you show me scriptures that dispute 1Cor 6:12 and 1Cor10:23 ?

Answer 1

1COR 6:9-11 suggests that there is sin, but also there is unlimited forgiveness from it.

Wait, I'm a Satanist! Why am I answering this question!?!!?

Answer 2

Romans 6:1-2 "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not!"

Hebrews 10:26-29 "For if we sin willfully after we have receved the knowledge of the turth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?"

Answer 3

I'm not quite sure what you're asking but you must know something about the Bible to have lifted these two verses out of it. What has sin in the world got to do with Christian freedom?
What Paul is saying is that, for instance, it is legal for Christians to drink alcohol, in other words it is not a sin for a Christian to drink. However, if it entangles us or if it leads someone else to have bitterness against the Lord because of our drinking then, even though it is not a sin, we should not do it.
God says that we can do many things and they are not sins, but if they harm ourselves or others or cause others to turn away from Jesus because we did them, then these acts become sin TO US, or the person doing the thing.
If you've read enough to know about these two verses then you've read enough to know that God makes it very well known to us that He considers certain acts to be sin. In the very verses following 6:12 Paul says to flee sexual immorality. He even expressly calls it a sin, so I guess that Paul thought that there was still sin in the world.
Not only is there still sin in the world but Christians still sin. The only thing that makes our sin different then the sin of the unsaved is that our sin is paid for by Christ's death and is covered by His blood.

Answer 4

Some people charge that this promotes sin and tells people that they can do whatever they want and God won't care since they are in Christ.

Paul clearly did not mean that it was acceptable for Christians to defile the marriage bed, lie, cheat, murder, get drunk, covet, etc. Notice the three verses which precede verse 12. There Paul warns that the unrighteous-adulterers, homosexuals, thieves. covetous, drunkards, revilers and the like-will not inherit (i.e., possess, have a position of rulership in) the kingdom of God. Likewise, in the subsequent verses Paul commands them to flee immorality (v 18) and to glorify God in their bodies (v 20).

In several of his letters Paul gave lists of sins, things which were unlawful for Christians. See, for example, Ephesians 5:3-5, Galatians 5:19-21, and 1 Corinthians 6:9-11--the verses immediately preceding the verse in question. In Romans 8:7ff Paul refers to the believer's obligation to obey "the law of God." Yes, Paul taught that believers are no longer under the Law of Moses (Rom 10:4; Gal 3:25; 4:9-12, 21-31). However, he did not teach that we are under no law of any kind. We are under the commands of the New Testament. (By the way, nine of the ten commandments are repeated in the New Testament.)

Paul's expression "All things are lawful for me" was a slogan that the Corinthian Christians had adopted and used to rationalize their sinful behavior.

Answer 5

There is obviously still sin in the world and what that has to do with a husband not divorcing an unbelieving wife is confusing to me. Why would Paul saying that the freedom given by Christ is not to be abused relate to your question.? Taking one verse and trying to build doctrine can be dangerous. Both chapters in Corinthians are very enlightening as a whole.

Answer 6

We are free to do all things but there are things that it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things but there are things that are not for the common good.) How do you see this as sin out of the world? We are free to choose what we want to do.This is simply what that is saying. Read 1 Cor 6:9 and 10. They tell you who will not have a part in heaven. Also tells you what not to do. Jesus said to love your neighbor as yourself. Sin still abounds in this world.

Answer 7

Your going to have to elaborate or clarify your question.
or maybe I'm slow...
And Scripture does not dispute itself.
There is evidence of sin everywhere.
Just look in the newspaper, you will see murder, theft, and all sorts of evil deeds. Those are examples of sins (note the "s").

Answer 8

There is a great difference between those who have been born again into God's kingdom and those who live according to the flesh.

Christians are led by the Spirit and are no longer under the condemnation of the Law as they walk by the Spirit. We have unbelieveable freedom because we are now the children of God, the King of the universe.
To us, who have received the love of God and want to please God with all our hearts, the law is now a guideline so that we might avoid being enslaved to anything which would draw us away from God.

THAT is what those two passages you gave are speaking about.

Without being born again, ALL is sin.

Notice the contrast in the following passages:

Titus 1:15-16
15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted. 16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.
(from New International Version)


Rom 3:10-18
0 As it is written:
"There is no one righteous, not even one; 11 there is no one who understands,
no one who seeks God. 12 All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one." 13 "Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit." "The poison of vipers is on their lips." 14 "Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness." 15 "Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16 ruin and misery mark their ways, 17 and the way of peace they do not know." 18 "There is no fear of God before their eyes."
(from New International Version)


Rom 8:1-9
8:1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man, 4 in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit.

5 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; 7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. 8 Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.

9 You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.
(from New International Version)



1 John 3:8-10
8 He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. 9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10 This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
(from New International Version)


John 3:5-8
"I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.' 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."
(from New International Version)

Even Christians need to grow up and learn how to put the "desires of the flesh" away from our thoughts. Sin is always around. We need to recognize it and fight against it in our lives.
