"For all have sinned .." seems like there is no escape from sin, one is a sinner as soon as born and condemned to atone. The rest of life is a journey trying to erase the stigma of birth and by going on a guilt trip every Sunday to be reminded how we are all "sinners" and nobody should be haughty and offend the Lord by even daring to suggest they have never sinned. So it seems like sin is a precondition for birth. You are born because you are a sinner and you are a sinner just because you have been born. A vicious cycle of sin and birth. Could this be the secret of eternal life, keep sinning so that you are BORN AGAIN and Again and Again ... eternal life through reincarnation? I do not feel like I have sinned and am having too much fun in life to go on a guilt trip. It seems like eternal life is here on earth and you go through reincarnations to get a new body to shelter the soul each time. So sinners rejoice and say Hallelujah and Praise the Lord for having sinned. Any doubts, reply.

That's an awfully odd way to define eternal life. One, it's not eternal, but you're just going through several lives. Eternal life in a sense implies enjoying life infinitely, in one body. Each life would be more and more torturous, you'd have to exhaust all of your bad karma, which keeps accumulating lifetime after lifetime, by your formula. Would you really want to continue with that if each subsequent life gets worse and worse?

In Buddhism once you talk about countless reincarnations you particularly do not understand what/how/the position you lived before. you are able to get some theory about what you probably did in a previous existence by technique of searching at your modern-day concept kinds and also you usually be able to regulate those issues regardless of the truth that it truly is confusing and customarily we are more suitable conscious than different cases. i have heard that you'll do 'previous existence retrievals', i'm no longer truly there with that one yet truly you're talking about rebirth as an chance to eliminate your suffering for the sake of eliminating suffering in others. After truly some study, i'm more suitable susceptible to settle for rebirth as a threat fantastically once you enter into metaphysics and problems with this nature. no longer all Buddhist have self belief or only settle for rebirth and also you're welcomed to question it as a lot as you want, it truly is the great aspect about Buddhism. advantages and massive question!

We are all sinners we are all equals life is a process of human livety we came here and we see what we see we all have a free will to do what we want good or bad until we can elevate to a better way of living so we know there is god creator being and he want us to stop sin so we don't have keep recanting but elevate to a higher spiritual being

No sinner is guaranted eternal life. Everyone is a sinner, whether they choose to admit that or not. We were born as sinners. Eternal life has nothing to do with reincarnation, as there is no such thing as reincarnation. Once we die, we are either going to heaven or hell, whether or not you believe in it. As sinners, if we choose to accept Christ's FREE GIFT of eternal life, then we will go to heaven and be forgiven for our sins. "you say, 'I am innocent; he is not angry with me.' But I will pass judgment on you because you say, 'I have not sinned. ~Jeremiah 2:35

umm i think ur getting the wrong point. Ok God made us in his glory. Eve decided to sin. So therefore starting the first of a billion sins. Jesus came died a prefect life. If you would actually listen to the sermons on sunday you might learn that a sin is think or doing anything that would go under the glory of God. So yes when you were little and you found the money on mom dresser and stole it you sinned. When you looked at that hot girl and thought something you shouldnt of you sinned. If you have ever classed yourself above someone you've sinned. when you were, if you stole that peice of candy when your mom told not to eat it, you sinned. and so on and so forth. Remember every sin is equal. So yes stealing one more cookie is just as bad as murdering someone! The point is that Jesus came to save you from your humanly self. You sin and Jesus gave his life for you. ITs that simple. You believe in him and you go to heaven when you die. there is no such thing as doing humanly deeds to get into heaven and there is no such thing as reincarnation. Sin is not a way of livev its human nature and you can only overcome that human nature through excepting Jesus Christ as your savior. Its that simple.
may God bless you and everyone you love!

no, youre mixing christianity with everything else.
youre not a sinner if you're buhdist, wiccan, pagan, atheist, etc
christianity has a self mechanism(which is how they got so popular) they label everything thats not/doesnt do like them evil. this is how they first came to power(and through politics and war) and this is the only way they are going to last, but then again nothing lasts forever and at one point the world religion will be something else.

We do not know much about reincarnation, whether there is really such thing as reincarnation. And is reincarnation only for sinners ? Who knows, we need more evidence and proof, the theory is not sufficient.

I am glad that you do not feel like you have sinned. Some people do and some so-called religious books make them believe so. That is the selling point for those books and religion behind them.

First..you are born innocent and after you arrive here you eventually will sin.
Second...the only real thing about reincarnation is that it is a word that exists in the dictionary with a definition.

We all may have refuge in the fact that if one follows Jesus Christ their sins will be separated from them as far as the east is from the west.
The bible says, "Man is appointed once to die....then comes judgement" Jesus told the thief on the cross, "Today you will be with me in paradise" He had sin and since asked for help/forgiveness from Jesus he went to heaven.
If Jesus came to die for our sins what sin did he not die for that one would have to come back and live again to atone themselves?
Makes no sense.
