no, Yahshua came to save us and point us back to Torah to teach us how to live. when you follow Torah, you'll sin less. we are born of sin and sin is in us, but we can strive not to and be like haMashiach.

The Apostle Paul answered a very similar question in Romans 6:1-2, "What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?" The idea that a person could trust in Jesus Christ for salvation and then go on living just as he/she lived before - is absolutely foreign to the Bible. Believers in Christ are new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17). The Holy Spirit changes us from producing the acts of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21), to producing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). The Christian life is a changed life.

Jhn 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
1Jhn 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
No actually the opposite he came to show that we can be perfect and not sin
Mat 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Phl 3:15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
Jam 1:4 But let patience have [her] perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Did you ever bother to read the very next verse?
And can one who is not under the law be held to the conditions of the law? No.
Are Christians dead to sin and dead to the law? Yes.
Is the KJV of 1 John 3:4 poorly translated? Yes, for not all sin was a matter of transgressing that law, but all sin is indeed anomia (iniquity).

No. Jesus Christ saves us to give us the abundance of grace and gift of His righteousness to reign in life ie to conquer sin (Romans 5:17). Christians who are crucified in Christ are dead to sin (Romans 6:2,6). Sin cannot dominate Christians who are under grace (Romans). In John 8:11 Jesus told the woman not to sin any more. 1 John 3:4 merely defines sin and in verse 6 it says anyone who abides in Jesus does not sin.

Practicing sin is different from being a sinner by nature, as all humans are.
Someone who professes belief in the Bible and God will not practice sin and will follow Bible principles and standards.

The ' sin' that Jesus paid for with his precious life, is INHERITED sin.
Adam and Eve committed it, causing us all to eventually die.
(Genesis 2:16-17) And Jehovah God also laid this command upon the man: “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. 17Â But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.”
Before they disobeyed, God had no plan for them to ever die. they brought it on themselves, after being warned, and we have all suffered since.
Jesus' death has removed that 'sentence' from us.
The benefits of not dying will be enjoyed by all the righteous after Armageddon.
It is not granted to the wicked, who will be destroyed at Armageddon.
God has promised an end to death. Jesus has paid for it.
(Revelation 21:4) And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
Any sins that WE commit are paid for/ cancelled by our own death.
'Wages are full payment for something [ done]
(Romans 6:23) For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord.

Ya see, that's the problem. The ten commandments are supposed to be the only words actually spoken by god. HOWEVER, these new testament guys show up and say Jesus was the guy we need to believe and follow.
A contradiction if you ask me. One would think the Ten Commandments took precedence over anything else.
Christians putting Jesus before God are breaking the "Thou shalt not have no other God before me." The bit about Jesus is my savior stuff puts Christians at risk of burning in the lake of fire.

Absolutely not.....
But by nature, we still sin daily.
Read Romans chapter 7.....Paul struggled with sin on a daily basis and acknowledged his "wretchedness"

God sees no sin in us. When he looks on us he sees the blood of his Son. We will continue to sin because we are in the flesh. But my sins are not counted aganist me. It will take me from fellowship, but not salvation. Now that I am saved I am to do works, as Jesus asked. These works are what put up rewards in heaven.
