What do you think will be the fate of "Christians" who take this view? Do you take this view? Consider what Paul said about grace and sinning, and God commanding we be perfect and holy as He is. If you say that that is impossible, do you realize what you are saying about the Father? Search the Scriptures; be like the Bereans. God bless. Peace. I'm out!

We are indeed saved by God's grace, for we do no deserve His mercy. This is surely not a license to continue sinning, for if we truly believe that Jesus has saved us, we want to live a life pleasing to Him. We may still do things that are wrong, but we quickly go to God for forgiveness. We keep short accounts. We do not deliberately, knowingly sin. If we say we can continue to sin, because of Jesus work at the cross, then we deceive ourselves, and do not truly believe in Christ's atonement at all Peace

No, you should know right from wrong (Romans 6: 1 - 3) but it is impossible to not sin and if you can not kept from one sin then you failed all of them. If you say that you do not sin, you make him a liar (1 John 1: 7- 10) Sin means: to miss the mark. There are sinners that are going to make it into the kingdom of God over a Pastor that profits or preaches false doctrine (Luke 18: 9 - 14). We are only righteous through Jesus, we can never be holy (Romans 10: 3). You can not perfect this body, it will never inherit the kingdom of God. It is all about your faith and not of your works. You could not do it without him.
Why Jesus died For Us
He is our sacrificial lamb who shed his blood to cover your sins: past, present and future. If not he died at the cross in vain. He full filled (Luke 24: 44) and nailed the 10 commandments to the cross (Colossi ans 2:14). Christ did not die in vain (Galatians 2: 21). The spirit or the works of the law (Galatians 3: 2). Christ is the end of the law (Romans 10: 4). The law is our tutor no more (Galatians 3: 24 – 25). God will remember your sins no more (Hebrews 10:17). You are a sinner for life, there is nothing that you can do not to sin (1 john 1: 7 - 10). You can not go out into the world and do what ever you wish, just because Jesus covered your sins (Romans 6: 1 - 3). Hebrews 8: 7 – 13 (he wrote the laws into their hearts, so that you would know right from wrong.
If you have faith in Jesus and are obedient to God, then you are not under the 10 commandments.
If you do not believe in Jesus, then you are under the 10 commandments, now you need to bring your unblemished goat to the alter every year and sacrifice it to cover your sins but with Jesus, he is our new covenant.
You are justified by faith and not of your works

That topic is exactly what Paul was preaching on. Of course not, we do not take God's grace as a license to continue to sin. I'm sure there are baby Christians who do not know enough of the teachings of the Bible yet, that may believe that statement. But they will learn. God does not hold us accountable for what we do not know or understand. God said, "Be ye holy for I am holy." While we must strive to walk holy, we understand that it is the Cross, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ that has made us perfect. Therefore, perfection is attainable - through belief in Him.

Everyone will sin!!! What that means is when we repent and take Jesus as our personal savior we are "righteous"(in right standing) before God. Only because we are covered with the Blood of Jesus and it wipes away our sins.We are supposed to try to live as holy He is but He also knows as humans we are born sinners. The blood makes those sins no more as long as we repent ask forgiveness and work diligently not to follow the flesh and do them again.People that use this as an "excuse" to do whatever they want and say oh I will just ask forgiveness in my opinion are tempting the Lord God and I myself would not want to go there.

The Lord All mighty has granted so many of us whatever we wanted well if I had to list them I would fill the entire internet.
Oh its already there hahaha, when are we going to use to learn it properly so we can benifit reatly from each other.
There is great people doing great things everyday and all you have to do is look outside and you can see the people working hard for your saftey and all the way down to the babies sleeping in their beds to the next morning coffee,.. well some drink unsweetened Ice Tea...
I really feel there is a great evil that always lingers ready to give us a push left and that is not going to bring us any closer to where we are ment to go.
I ask for peace, I see so many out there in great peace and all you get is bashing and mashing split peas and washed up grapes, buts and viruses and weirdo's in here and there. I really think we need to evalute the state of things and see things for what they really are out there and in here.
WE created this and its very easy can be lost if that is what all of us want.. well there is some houses that have 100% working electricity without any bills, infact they are paying back to the electric company. The people are always working together look around. Everyday Allah wakes us and some he takes and there is nothing more important then you understanding that you have a choice.

I have a bad memory problem which is why I cant state certain scriptures. Pauls conversion has been something of inspiration to me, it gives me hope that things can change if we want it in our hearts of hearts. There are alot of people that live by that, I am human and humans are sinners. This is a terrible way to be a chrisitian. the whole point is to learn from what we have done to displease our father and never do it again. we should be aspiring to be more like god, not making excuses for why we wont try. We are sinners which is why we have to be on alert. I love pauls story though. thanks for getting me inspired this morning.

Yet 1 John 1 says that if we say we are without sin, then we lie and the truth is not in us.
"Perfectionist" doctrines are false and unbiblical, and some are borderline false gospels. I am a Berean, which is why I reject what you're saying right now.

Everyone's idea of what is sin, and what is not, is different.
The best way to know if something is a sin is by asking if your actions harm another person, or if you are imposing on another person's rights. If the answer is yes to either of these questions, then maybe you should change your ways for the sake of a better quality of life, and not for some fictitious place after death.

A voice of truth. Hooray for you. No I personally do not take the grace of God and use it as a license to sin. I believe we can and now I know others do to, live a life free of sin. That blood, that blood.
