Dear Phillip, John Wesley (the father of Arminian Methodism) held to your position. It is called "entire sanctification" or "moral perfectionism." Charles Finney was also a proponent of this teaching. All sin is seriously problematic for any theological position. I believe that it can be demonstrated from Wesley's own writing that his position on moral perfectionism required redefining sin. (I can find the references for you if you like.) This is the Biblically orthodox definition of sin: "Sin is any lack of conformity, active or passive, to the moral law of God. This may be a matter of act, of thought, or of inner disposition or state." (Millard Erickson) This discussion would also require careful definitions of salvation, sanctification, repentance, etc. If we fail to define our terms, we open ourselves to all kinds of error -- and we certainly cannot enter into a meaningful dialog. In Him, Doc |
