The following verse also make it plain that those who are born of God can sin:
"For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins" (Heb.10;260.
'
Once again, you braindead pervert, Hebrews 10:26 is dealing with unbelief. The writer of Hebrews is dealing with those who continue to reject Christ, the sin of unbelief. Jesus did not die for our unbelief, He died for our sins relating to lawlessness. Unbelief requires REPENTENCE.
"For if we
sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth (the gospel), there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on
the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of
how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot,
counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and
insulted the Spirit of grace?" Heb 10:26-29
This is EXCATLY what you do.
How does someone know if they sin? Let's let the Bible tell us...
"
Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness." 1 John 3:4
"Therefore by the deeds of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for
by the Law is the knowledge of sin." Rom 3:20
"For if those who are of the Law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect, because the Law brings about wrath; for
where there is no Law there is no transgression." Rom 4:14-15
"What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary,
I would not have known sin except through the Law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the Law had said, “You shall not covet.” Rom 7:7
According to God's word, the Law reveals sin. It's like a mirror. It does not make your face dirty, but is reveals that you have a dirty face. The strength of sin, is the Law.
"The sting of death is sin, and
the strength of sin is the Law." 1 Cor 15:56
"For the wages of sin
is death, but the gift of God
is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Rom 6:23
"Wherefore, as by
one man sin entered into the world, and
death by sin; and so
death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the Law sin was in the world: but
sin is not imputed when there is no Law. Nevertheless
death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come." Rom 5:12-14
The above verse solidifies the truth that sin was in the world and death through sin, even though they had not sinned in the likeness of Adam. This is because sin reigns in death.
"Moreover the Law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as
sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Rom 5:20-21
The Law revealed that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Sin reigns in death. Grace and righteousness reign in life. Those who are dead in Adam are slaves of sin. Those who are alive in Christ are slaves of righteousness. A person is one or the other, and you cannot be both.
Therefore, since
sin reigns in death, in order for anyone to no longer continue in sin, they must be made alive in Christ. The abundant grace of God frees us from the abundance of sin.
"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
God forbid.
How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were
baptized into his death?
Therefore we are buried with him
by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should
walk in newness of life.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Knowing this, that
our old man is crucified with him, that the
body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should
not serve sin.
For he that is dead is freed from sin." Rom 6:1-7
Paul makes it abundantly clear that those who have been crucified with Christ and raised to new life cannot continue in sin. The old man (in Adam) has died to sin, and the body of sin "destroyed". To "serve sin" is to return to the Law. To become a slave of sin, is to seek justification by works, rather than by faith. The Law can only reveal sin, and those who serve the Law are those who continue to sin. Those who are born of God, cannot sin, because they are free from sin, and slaves of righteousness. As Jesus said "Everyone who commits sin, is the slave of sin".
Now, can believers contribute to sin, yes. How? By leading others away from the faith.
"And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin."
There is sin, that is a violation of the Law (behavior) and there is sin that is not of faith (unbelief).
"Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with
those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to
those who did not obey? So we see that they
could not enter in because of unbelief." Heb 3:17-19
So, when John tells us that those who are born of God cannot sin, the context is lawlessness. The same is true, when the apostle Paul says that believers cannot continue in sin, and when Jesus says that those who sin are slaves of sin.
However, believers can and do sin in regards to unbelief. They not only participate by returning to the Law (Galatia), but also in contributing to the unbelief of others (Corinth). Because YOU, and most others, do not qualify the differences and you lack a fundamental understanding of what salvation is, what it means to be a "new creation", "born of the Spirit", "born of God", "alive in Christ", etc., you forever continue to speak about those things you fail to understand, and you contribute to leading others away from the faith.
