I don't believe in the once saved always saved thing some Christians teach. I've read the bible and I'm sorry but that kind of stuff it is not scriptural. I truly believe that with the power of the holy sprit I can be restored and live a sinless life. The problem with me is like lot's wife’s little problem of letting go of the things the world provides. I don't think I've truly turned to Christ even though I've repented many times. But as I read more and learn more of what the bible says it just seem I'm far from salvation. My point is, has anybody out there who truly repented and turned to Christ with all there hearts, lived at least one sinless day? If you have not read the bible through do not answer this question.

I'm guilty but I'm innocent because I was born into a big lie as was everyone else. But to answer your question yes I have lived many sinless days and I'm not a Christian, since the only sin you can comment is sin of yourself, being honest can be a lie or an assumption. Check this out, it brought me understanding of what some people are capable of.

Well one can think a bad though and sin and none goes without sin daily and that is why the Lord thy God says when you do repent quickly and one must ask for forgiveness everyday of known sins and unknown sin which they are not even aware of. There is none perfect but the father. God does justify us, meaning when you become saved in God's eyes it accounted as if you have never sinned. People are so worried today and it is God that has the last say so over a man soul and not man. Jesus died for our sin and we are accounted as righteous but God forbid us to continue in sin once we received the power to overcome it. God is love and love hide all faults. This is some of the reason one must know the father for themselves because when the spirit of truth comes in your soul you need not man teach you nothing. God rains on the just and the unjust. God loves us all cause he created all of us. God gives us free will to choose this day whom we will serve. I have read the bible through many times and each time I do there is always another enlightenment.

Good point, GOD wants us to repent from our sins not confess. Jehovahs witnesses are the closest to the truth in my opinion. To say you will make it into the kngdom of heaven because you beleive is like saying you will win the lottery if you beleive you will. It is not an easy task and it says so in the bible. I have not yet devoted myself 100% because I have alot of things about myself that I need to change first. The answer is yes. There are people who have lived at least one day sinless. I have met them, it is a beautiful thing. : )

How can someone lose "eternal life?" Can't be eternal, then. The Bible lied, then, because Hebrews said that God would seal us with the Holy Spirit once we truly committed to Christ (Hebrew 10:15). No one can go one day without sinning. Sin can be anything that is evil--an evil thought, an evil feeling, an evil deed. Does not matter, because it is still evil. I find it highly unlikely that someone would go one whole day without thinking about an immoral act or committing at least one immoral act. Go to www.gotquestions.org. I hope that you read your Bible carefully, because someone has been misleading you. Hope that helps.

No, I have not lived a sinless day. I wish I could! I pray for God to help me live up to being His child, but I know that I can't. I try my best, but I'm am sure if I were to watch a film of each of my days, I would be able to spot something that has broken a commandment, no matter how small or how large. Was I jealous of a house that someone else has? Did I treat my husband or my children with love and respect? Did I swear, unintentionally or intentionally? Did I gossip? Did I speak unkindly or treat someone unkindly?
This is why God sent Christ for us.... He knows that we try and we try, but we can never meet His perfection. But, He loves us so much that He's willing to help and forgive. So, everyday, I pray for forgiveness and ask Him to be with me as I struggle and try to be a loving child of God, aiming to reach His standards.

Yes I believe that I have. I spent a whole day away from everyone else. I ate not. I drank not. I just read the Bible and prayed.

I have sinned before and after.

But having a sinless day is not what G-d wants from us.

Do you know what G-d wants?

No person is without sin...it clearly says in the bible "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23). Christians are human too. If we were able to be perfect, and not sin, then there would have been no reason for Jesus to die on the cross. We all fall short. But our God is a gracious and forgiving God. He understands when we make mistakes.

I am a christian and I sin every day, but see you miss the whole point it isnt about being sinless it is about striving to get their, See God knows you are going to sin, what really matters to him is what you are going to do when you sin are you going to repent and move on or wallow in that sin.

Please brother just keep trying to live, a right life and keep the faith.

I'm with you on this one, There is no one on earth who is perfect. We are all human and we all have thoughts that can be considered a sin (bad thoughts, lustful thoughts). If there is someone out there who claims to be the perfect person, please come forward so everyone in this Yahoo Answer's Comunity can gather rocks and stone you to death so you can be judged right a way.

Living your life to the best of your abilities is what the bible teaches.

Maybe when I was a baby,... or before the "age of reason"

Honest? Would I admit this if I were not?

Tarquinn....even with the Holy Spirit within your life, even if we do not DO anything that can be seen, God still sees what is in our minds....I am human....My Spirit may be willing, but, at moments of weakness, my "flesh" is weak...satan will try his darndest to poke at us when we are weak.....but we go to God and confess even though He knows it already, and hand it over each time so we do not keep the burden festering within us.

Peace be with you :)

*** oops, saw that I had said "peace...." twice, lol sorry about that :)
