The born again spirit of a person cannot sin.

The soul can continue to choose sin, however.

mhgintn is quite correct that the new born again spirit in a person is sinless.

Rape sure does sound like a sin. But Ravi gets a pass, because it wasn’t his spirit that was sinning, right?

MHGinTN you have been norn again then the Spirit of God abides in your spirit and IT cannot sin because God is there. The flesh? Not so much, it is trained to sin.”

Metmom The born again spirit of a person cannot sin.

The soul can continue to choose sin, however.

So you're saying a person is made up of mind, body, soul and spirit and that

if a person sins then it is either

1. Due to his body - as per MHG

2. Due to his soul - as per metmom

But in either case, the person has the get-out-of-jail clause "It wasn't me"
