But you did indeed single me out. I don’t know what you mean by the two verses you have posted they are apples and oranges.

No, that phrase was in reference to the post to which I responded.

Your James reference is referring to a lost person NOT a saved person.

James was writing of "any of you."

Your 1 John reference simply refers to all have sinned and once we admit we are sinners and need a Savior He will forgive us thus we are saved.

No, the Apostle wrote "we," including himself. He was writing of a something still continuing for himself.

Funny that and rc would use a verse that says Mary was a sinner also.

Blessed Mary is not in the verse.

Just as Christ doesn’t need to go to the cross every time we sin His sacrifice was and is sufficient for all sin past, present, and future. He is still sitting at the right hand of God as our High Priest, His work is forever!

That does not agree with what He said to the churches through the Spirit.

Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

Revelation, Catholic chapter two, Protestant verses one to seven,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James

“James was writing of “any of you.”

Finish the sentence “any of you who does what?”
Strays from the truth...

This is Christianity
1 Peter 1:4-5
4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Unfortunately this is catholicism

2 Timothy 3:5
5 holding to a form of [a]godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these.

Footnotes:

2 Timothy 3:5 Or religion

“Blessed Mary is not in the verse.”

10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.
Sorry, but she and everyone else is in that “we” word.

“That does not agree with what He said to the churches through the Spirit.”

Just as James was saying in his book they have strayed from the truth and are in danger. He hasn’t removed their light yet, but if they continue on the path and don’t repent He will remove it.
I would suggest if you really want to study the seven churches start at Rev 2 the church of Thyatira it gives a detailed account of the church of rome and how she will fall staight into Hell since she won’t repent.
