Pleasant it is, when on the great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon anothers's great tribulations: not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive what ills you are free from yourself is pleasant. Pleasant is it also to behold great encounters of warfare arrayed over the plains, with no part of yours in the peril. But nothing is more delightful thatn to possess lofty sanctuaries serene, well fortified by the teachings of the wise, whence you many look down upon others and behold them all astray, wandering abroad and seeking the path of life: the strife of wits, the fight for precedece, all laboring night and day with surpassing toil to mount upon the pinnacle of riches and to lay hold on power.

But i would ask myself. If i do not help, aid or assist those most in need. If i allowed them to trip, stumble and fall in the way of darkness who or what would i answer to in the end? Would it be my own conscience, or perhaps something spiritually bigger? Who really knows. So i must listen to my inner voice. The one that gives supposed reason to me....allow me to make that right decision. Should i help, assist and lift up my fellow man. Or allow whoever it is to sink into the depths of darkness, never to see or seek the light of knowing ever again.

Everyone is a sinner by nature. God created man in his own image, but the devil, who is known as the "Prince of this World" leads us to be sinners. Jesus died on the cross for our sins to be forgiven of the nature of man, but still, people sin. Satan's greatest trick is deception, turning lies into truthlike statements. Temptation, etc. FYI, the best way to avoid tempation (this is from the Bible), is to go away from the source.

People are born under sin, judgement, death and oppression by satan. Read the Bible Romans 3:23; 6:23, Hebrews 9:27 and Revelation 20:11-15.
The only way for you to break free from sin is through Jesus Christ, He is the only way to God, its only by accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour and becoming born again, that your sins will be forgiven you and that you will inherit eternal life in heaven (John 3:3 - 6).
God send His Son to come and die for us, inorder for us to get a second chance to mend our relationship with Him, Salvation only comes to those who believe, it is only by faith and by the grace of God that you are saved.
You are well on tract, that is the right question to ask, meaning you saw something greater than the physical, because there is Someone more powerfull and magnificent in control,
Someone who can't be understood by human wisdom, One who can only be understood through revelations of the Holy Spirit by reading your bible.

If you habitually sin and cannot control your behavior, you are a sinner. If you don't, you aren't. Don't take any notice of the people who say everyone is a sinner: they are all sinners who need to believe that so they can feel better about themselves.

This sounds like doubletalk.
What are you trying to say?
And Yes you are a sinner.
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
And if you say that you have no sin in you, you lie and God will have no part in you.
God Bless You, ;-)

No George. You're not a sinner. Just a skeptic who has seemingly resolved his age old question what to do with life

Taking pleasure in someone else's pain or misfortune is called Schadenfreude. If you think cruelty is a sin, then you're a sinner.

God Came to save Sinners. People who do not sin don't need God.
We all sin.

I didn't even have to read your long question to answer Yes, you are a sinner. We are all sinners!
