Here’s your problem. You say that you repent and are forgiven when you sin, but you don’t extend that to others because you think their relationship with Christ doesn’t meet your standard. God has never once asked me if He should forgive another person. Has he you?

Of course I do (extend that to others). What I don’t do is say “I can’t sin because the Holy Spirit residing in me won’t allow it” “And, even if I could sin (apart from my flesh/soul), there are no consequences, for UNREPENTENT sin” (ridiculous)

Not one person who has ever lived, other than Jesus Christ, hasn’t sinned or will continue to sin at some time or another. It is a daily battle. Luckily we have the Holy Spirit to help us. Do we automatically get a free pass? NO WE DO NOT.

What might God say to a Christian who CONTINUES TO WILLFULLY rape and commit adultery (and a bunch of other bad stuff)?
