If you knowingly, habitually commit sin...you have no business calling yourself a Christian.

She needs to read 1 John.

She could still be a Christian, but could have backslidden. I think that it takes more to be a Christian than just saying you grew up in Church and you pray every night and read the Bible. You have to live a different life. A life that will have a positive impact on people. Not a life that will cause them to sin also (the porn industry). It shouldn't be as popular as it is in mainstream America.

If you knowingly, habitually deny that you commit sin...you have no business calling yourself a Christian either.

I don't know a single Christian who became sinless the moment they accepted Christ as Savior. Do you?

I bet there are people who know you or me who could point out "sin" that we "habitually commit".....

Of course some sins are more obvious than others.

That covers just about every Christian I have ever met.

Sorry, that's not the standard.

And a person can call themselves anything they want, it won't be true or untrue because of it. Christ won't be fooled, and it's no one else's business.

You saying once saved, always saved doesn't apply? What about those who have personalities that are such that they are cruel instead of loving in their relationships with people, or overly controlling. Those too qualify as sins, are usually knowingly and habitually committed, yet are overlooked by the church.
