There is an aspect of the Born Again Believer which CANNOT sin because the seed of God-life remains in ABIDES IN that aspect. That aspect of the Born Again is their spirit, not their flesh nature, their spirit.
You are trusting in the dogma of a cult. The seventh day adventist religion is a cult, a cult which pushes works for salvation. Your practiced deceit is to claim you believe salvation is by Grace only. But then your cult adds works to keep you saved, as if GOD saves someone CONDITIONALLY. That is a lie straight from the pit of hell.
Making salvation conditional is satan's appeal to human pride, as if you are capable of mastering your sin nature which is functioning in your behavior mechanism so long as you are alive, not in the grave or raptured away.
You're waving Ravi around like your super gotcha is foolishness. Have you not read about the life of LOT who Peter calls righteous? Have you ignored the life of King David? You are working for the wrong side, Phil. Your goal is to sow/sew confusion so the lies of your CULT can inveigle someone reading the heretical bilge you keep asserting.
You are a cultist, a lost, self-righteous cultist. You fling the Word of God around like a bundle of wheat, waving the Word around as if it will somehow rain truth kernels down to cover your misuse of same. Your only harvest will be Christ telling you someday to depart from Him for He never knew you, was never allowed to abide in your spirit.
Perhaps you would be more happy sticking to the cult sites and arguing with cronos the Catholic. Your deceptions are not getting passed the Born Agains on this site.
Meant to ping ... cautionary thread of cultists
Your purposeful mischaracterizations reveal what spirit is within you, Phil. You assert that I said the born agains cannot sin. That is your planned deception, not what I have posted.
I did nothing of the kind:
MHGinTN post 156: The spirit of the born again cannot sin because God’s Life is abiding in that newborn spirit, IRREVOCABLY.
MHGinTN post 170: If you have been born 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.
And then the back and forth with Cronos, etc...
And the kicker is that even if you do sin IN THE FLESH, it doesn’t matter anyway because no matter what you do, you are going to heaven, BECAUSE YOUR SPIRIT OVERRIDES THE FLESH. Rape a bunch of women? Murder a bunch of children? Cheat on your spouse for 50 years? Nope, still going to heaven, BEACAUSE THE SPIRIT OF THE BORN AGAIN CANNOT SIN. Free pass. Boatbums and CAWW both said as much (I’m not including their quotes because I don’t want to take the time to find them, but they are there, believe me).
But then - when the bjorn again believer (BAB) DOES sin - do you then say it was their flesh nature or their soul that sinned or do you say that that person sinned?
