Those verses were meant for the House of Israel. Are you a member of the House of Israel?
she believes that you must listen to what the pope says
Do you love everybody Chrys?
That would make you a Member of the House of Israel living 2000 years ago? Is that what you are identifying with?
Not of the House of Israel but of the Israel of God, God's firstborn.
Nor does a person need to be a Corinthian to keep Passover. (1 Corinthians 5:7)
He was saying that we must be willing to admit we are sinners in order to start the process of becoming a member of the Body of Christ. There is no real need to confess every single sin we ever committed because Christ paid for the sins of humanity on the cross of Calvary. If salvation was based upon confession of all sin, what would happen if you should die before confessing each and every sin?
Are you admitting to being a "Worker" and not a "Faither?" Do you feel the need to gain eternal life through your good works/deeds?
You obviously don't know what sin is in the context of God's everlasting covenant.

Why can't you answer the question?
Does it sound right to you that I am condemned for doing something Jesus said when he walked the earth?
As for Paul, he debated and argued in public debate.
We are given eternal life by Jesus' grace to serve him by good works. (Ephesians 2:10)

So when Jesus says repent or perish, those words have now become death to those who repented before they were saved?

So believing AND ADMITTING we are sinners is how we can be saved?
You said we only have to believe. Now you say we have to admit we are sinners.
At least you admit that now.

Paul says the same thing that John the baptizer says, and that is to repent and prove our repentance by our deeds.
Acts 26:20 First to those in Damascus, then to those in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and then to the Gentiles, I preached that they should repent and turn to God and demonstrate their repentance by their deeds.
John the baptizer:
Matthew 3:8
Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.

Well, that's your opinion and you're welcome to it. I don't happen to agree however, that's okay.

GM, Since you say we have to admit we are sinners so we can be saved, don't you think it would be good to know what sins we are doing and confess those sins?
Whatever you say. It's your opinion and you're welcome to it.
It's not necessary for eternal life.

Psalm 32:5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD." And you forgave the guilt of my sin.
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

If you didn't know you were a sinner, why would you feel the need for a Savior? Obviously, one must realize they're a sinner. The way to eternal life is to, hear the Gospel and place ALL your faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior.
