Is sinning a sin?

[Huntinfool]

I just had to ask in light of the very specific "is this a sin" threads.

Y'all give it a break. Show people Christ. Preach the gospel.

I'm reminded of a line from a famous (to be named later) movie...."What we call thiiiiis and seventy fith st baptist church...we call a sinny sinnnnnn sin. How 'bout a little bit....fo my cataract?"

Let's give it a break guys. Sin is sin....arguing about it won't change it.

No...sin is only sin if you are not a Christian. Christians can go on sinning so that God's Grace can abound. Paul even tells us this in Romans.

true...but you don't get that from this forum.

Look at Paul in his defense of his life/faith in Acts 23-24. When speaking before the Sanhedrin, the Roman Commander and then later in front of Felix, what does he appeal to?

His CONSCIENCE. Amazing how God has given us something that tells us right from wrong. On "gray" issues, if you do something and it bothers you, it is probably wrong. If you do something and it doesn't bother you, then it probably isn't a big deal.

A voice of reason and truth. Thank you.

We have been preaching the Gospel letter for letter verse for verse but people don't like the truth. I usually offer scripture for a question. Must be the wrong approach for the tickling of the ears bunch.

 

[Huntinfool]

Doing something that appears godly can be a sin folks....matters of the heart are very difficult to see on the outside sometimes.

There are lots of sins...let's not go about the business of trying to list them all. I think we'll be here for a while.

Amen to that. They only wanna hear about the good things.

I come to this forum now with the intent on the declaration that "Jesus is Lord". My previous banter days didn't get me nor many readers anywhere, but when Christ is lifted up... "He will draw all men unto Himself". There's no sence in lifting up a human standard (or religion, which faith in Christ is NOT) because it plays on the exhausting efforts of man to reach God. God's standard is in the gift, and in the gift giver, all free, but at the cost of the life of our Lord on the cross.
But now risen, the gift, His abundant life, is open to all who would recieve it.

now i know you don,t know what you are talking about


Romans 6:1-2 (King James Version)

Romans 6
1What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

Brother, I do hope you're kidding.
In Romans, Paul states just the opposite.

That being said, if you've giving your life to Christ and you are living for Christ, His blood will continue to cleanse you from each and every sin that you might commit. If you're walking in His light, your sins are forgiven.

Thanks.
I'm glad to see you caught that also.

Listen folks, give your "Life" and life's purposes to Christ and then never concern yourself with your sins again. That's the easy way.

Ain't nothing wrong with smoking weed man. Weed comes from the Earth. God put this here for me.... and you.

Yes...yes I'm kidding. The fact that some can read my posts and think I'm not is both humorous and sad at the same time.

Very well stated.

Well, a feller can't be too careful.
