I have admitted numerous times on the Forum that I am a sinner, and that by Jewish standards, I Sin.
Furthermore, even as a new covenant believer, I have admitted that I fail God and commit willful sin.
I do not sin that Grace might abound!
I also recognize that genuine Sin destroys my life and others lives.
I never desire that any should sin because of my words.
However, I admit my short comings to encourage my brothers and sisters that do admit that they struggle with sin daily, and have victories and failures.
I also am open and honest to encourage people that do not believe, and feel that God demands perfection, because many of this world claim to know Jesus, but deny that they continue to need Jesus.
I propose that: to say that the flesh does not sin at the point of salvation, and to profess ones self without sin is not only a lie. It is the ultimate rejection of the need for Jesus.
I furthermore propose that this lie, whether blatant, or blind is destructive to the message of the cross.
The point of the Cross is that Only Jesus is perfect, and we can be ye perfect as He is perfect by accepting His Loving sacrifice and putting Him on like a cloak.
I could claim to be sinless by the message that there is no sin where there is no law to transgress, but in witness, there is no edification for lying to people and becoming a literal Hypocrite.
Whether an internal or external struggle. We all struggle with sin.
Pointing to self righteousness is frustration of the quickness of the gospel.
I worked with a pastor for many years and they told me that those who claim to be without sin and bind people to their sinless doctrines are the biggest troublemakers and carry the most disturbing secrets of sin.
That has stuck with me throughout my life.
This minister was a Love first kind of person, and they brought healing to many lives. They also never pointed to themselves, but Jesus as their shining example.
I propose that the only thing that could allow a person to demand perfection of themselves and others is the idea that Jesus was not God.
Equality with God is a calling of Love as co heirs. It is not a calling to BE LIKE GOD.
Only YHWH is genuinely sinless, and the message is that the sinless loves the sinners and took the punishment for all sin that the sinless could be declared sinful, that the sinner could be declared sinless.
1 John says that if we say we are without Sin, then we lie and there is no Truth in us.
As I believe Jesus was indeed God, and He called Himself the TRUTH, this means that I would be without Jesus if I lied and declared myself without sin.
I confess that I am a sinner, beggar, spiritual leppor that is only counted clean by the Loving sacrifice of Jesus, and the hurting world is not aided by a group of people that count themselves better than they are by lying and denying that they struggle with sin just as they do.
I propose that too much emphasis has been placed on self, and way too much light has been taken away from the Shining light of hope that we know as JESUS, our PROPITIATION by the work of the place of the SKULL.
