1 | Is iT possible to live without sin? | Rom 6:2 | Sir Pent | 23574 | ||
Contrary View .............................. Dear Resurrectioner, I am not prepared at this time to do a full discussion on this topic, but I just wanted to let you know that I think that it IS possible to live a life without sin after salvation (not before). This doctrine is called "Entire Sanctification", and you can find some posts on the subject by doing a search for those words. |

2 | Is iT possible to live without sin? | Rom 6:2 | Lanny | 23634 | ||
I also believe that a life without sin is obtainable in this present life through sanctification. Most of the time when this subject is spoken of, 1 John 8 and 10 are usually brought into the picture. These verses pertain to life prior to salvation and confession of sin. The following verse 2:1 even states, "And if any man sins" meaning that some must have been living sinless lives or else he would have said, "When man sins." In verse 2:6 he states how we should walk, even as he walked. I just cannot believe with all the doctrine and light that we should have today, that if we, with a sincere heart ask God to deliver us from sin and are willing to obey him at all cost, that he would tell us that he cannot help us. The devil put us in sin and to say that God cannot not deliver us out of sin would be a disgrace to The Almighty God. But who's willing to go that far? And who wants to be delivered? The bible says that nothing defiled will enter into heaven and to follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the lord. It doesn't even matter if we know someone or not that does not live free from sin. Most of the world today want to compare themselves with man, a preacher, or someone else that seems to be doing good. We need to look to Christ and not to man. Most men will defend living in sin instead of righteousness and without a doubt be in the majority. Still, that doesn't make sin an option according to the true word of God. Three things that we need to ask ourselves: What sin is it that we must do? And, if we could live a sinlesss life, would we? Are we willing to go that far to obtain holiness, or do we have to much to give up? That's what sanctification is all about, not that we will have to give everything up but are we willing to if God ask. And if we are living in sin it can almost be assured that we will have to give something up. Your heart will know if you are willing and he knows your heart. We cannot have any touchmenots. We have an option and if we really want this it is obtainable and Christ will provide the way. In Christ, Lanny |

Not I, but Christ Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (NIV) so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me. (TEV) |

Answer (short): No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, for God’s nature abides in him [His principle of life, the divine sperm, remains permanently within him]; and he cannot practice sinning because he is born (begotten) of God. 1 John 3:9 (Amplified) Answer (full): 1 John 3:6-10 (Amplified) 6 No one who abides in Him [who lives and remains in communion with and in obedience to Him—deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] commits (practices) sin. No one who [habitually] sins has either seen or known Him [recognized, perceived, or understood Him, or has had an experiential acquaintance with Him]. 7 Boys (lads), let no one deceive and lead you astray. He who practices righteousness [who is upright, conforming to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action, living a consistently conscientious life] is righteous, even as He is righteous. 8 [But] he who commits sin [who practices evildoing] is of the devil [takes his character from the evil one], for the devil has sinned (violated the divine law) from the beginning. The reason the Son of God was made manifest (visible) was to undo (destroy, loosen, and dissolve) the works the devil [has done]. 9 No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, for God’s nature abides in him [His principle of life, the divine sperm, remains permanently within him]; and he cannot practice sinning because he is born (begotten) of God. 10 By this it is made clear who take their nature from God and are His children and who take their nature from the devil and are his children: no one who does not practice righteousness [who does not conform to God’s will in purpose, thought, and action] is of God; neither is anyone who does not love his brother (his fellow believer in Christ). |
