You do sound disrespectful.
.. . but why are you trying to discuss things Christian when you don't even know what the bible says???
See, this is you sounding disrespectful again. For the record, I actually nailed it. I said it sounded like something a Pharisee would say. Turns out that a Pharisee did say it.
And as I pointed out before, Paul wasn't saying that if they couldn't comprehend what he said, then they should examine themselves. The original question you were asked is whether you sin or not. And instead of being forthcoming, you dodged it, posted some scripture that was totally unrelated to the question at hand, and then admonished another for not comprehending what turns out was an error on your part. And that is not at all what Paul did to the church at Corinth.
To: narses
There ya go - you and the other “once saved, always saved” crowd are free to sin at will.
I sin willfully sin most every day...I usually eat more food than my body needs...
Rom 6:4 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.
Rom 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Rom 6:6 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.
Rom 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Obviously this and other similar scripture means nothing to you...How can you discuss anything biblical if you don't know or don't believe the scriptures???

This is the post you are referring to...You erred in a number of places...
I clearly responded to the accusation that I sin willfully most every day...
AND, it is not an obscure scripture that I posted that has nothing to do with the topic...The only problem here is your obvious lack of scripture knowledge...
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Christians surely are dead to Christ but ALIVE in the spirit...And as being dead as the verses explain, we are freed from sin...
I am sorry that you don't get it...
