1 | Can a born again sin as they did before? | 1 John 1:8 | jlpangilinan | 67811 | ||
You write "I think once your "born again" you're always "born again" regardless of if you stumble...However, only those who are sincere of heart in their commitment to God...and only God knows the heart...are those that struggle to be as sinless as possible due to their love and faith in Jesus Christ...there is only one sin that cannot be forgiven and that is to deny or "blasphemy" God once you make the commitment to become "reborn". ..to deny Him...that is merely my own understanding, but you should search the Scriptures for yourself." I am sorry but I will disagree with you. Once you born again you you always born again. This is not a big reason that God will tolerate such actions. For example if I am a killer then called for salvation (born again) received Christ and Christ lives in me how could I commit the same things I've done bofore. paul specifies that once you received Christ, Christ lives in you and not yours: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Now if Christ live in me and still I can commit killings rape etc, what kind of chirst is that live in me a tolerable kind of christ? Could you please cite me any apostle that once a killer then born again and commit the same acts after being born again, please I will very thankful if can provide. God bless, Johnny |

Notice that I said "stumble"....I didn't say kill someone and I did not mean that...What I meant was that when you become born again you will not be perfect. God will still need to work on you. Philippians 3:18 For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: I suggest that you read the rest of that chapter or the whole book and also consider the Apostle Judas Iscariot...he sat at the Last Supper with Jesus yet he betrayed Jesus into the hands of His crucifiers...Please let me know if you need scripture reference on that or anything! |

You know if you read the thread the questions asked if the born again can still do what he have done before. I give myself an example "if I am a killer" can I still do the same what I've done before it is very clear. You suggest judas sscariot who choose judas iscariot as a betrayal of Christ, do you suggest judas once save and lost it. i dont your scritures on that, now cite me any apostle that after been "born again" still do what they done before. As I said paul is a perfect example, he forsake Christ, and persecute the apostles, but after been "born again" did he commit the same sin? I know people still can sin, but not as grave as he was before, if you are "born again" and Christ live with you I dont think if you once a killer you can still do the same if Christ live in you!
