[Cronos]

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"

[caww]

You're stating “But in either case, the person has the get-out-of-jail clause “It wasn't me”....

That's not what they're saying Cronos.... Rather that when God sees/views/Judges us He sees the Righteousness of His son Jesus who fulfilled God's Law and Righteous requirements 'on our behalf' and it's Jesus's life, death, suffering and Resurrection which fully and completely satisfied all of God's requirements we could not and never can fulfill before our Holy God....both now and forever more.....It is finished.
