1 | Will sin enter heaven? | Rev 21:17 | BradK | 140824 | ||
Hi Jeff, I'll give it one last attempt to clarify myself. However, with that said, the burden of proof is still on you, my friend! I asked 2 questions: What (SPECIFIC) scripture tells us that we must KEEP the law? What (SPECIFIC) scripture tells us that we will STOP sinning (this side of heaven)? You appear to be ignoring the entire theology given in the 13 Pauline Epistle that would deal with these issues - particularly Romans.( cf. Rom. 10:4, Gal. 5:14). Jeff, "spiritual ping-pong" is where one never really answers or deals with the question asked or at hand, but rather throws out another series of questions and it becomes a never-ending circle of back and forth! I never said we do not have to "obey God". We are dealing with defining what constitutes obedience and I'm simply seeking your understanding of this! (I would offer Rom. 1:5 and 16:26.) You ask "Am I missing something here?" Yes. Being teachable is very integral to the learning process. I would agree on this point. As you're new to the Forum, you haven't developed and repoire (yet), and many of us "regulars" don't know where you're coming from theologically. Knowing this really helps all of us to better understand each other and to communicate more effectively. With that said, I'd encourage you to update your user profile and take some time to tells us a little about yourself and where you're coming from. Feel free to read my profile as well:-) I trust that this will help to clear things up a bit. BradK |

2 | Will sin enter heaven? | Rev 21:17 | Jeff W | 140879 | ||
Hello You asked: "What (SPECIFIC) scripture tells us that we must KEEP the law?" Jesus stated in John 14:15 very plainly (Specific): "If you love me keep my commandments." You asked: "What (SPECIFIC) scripture tells us that we will STOP sinning (this side of heaven)?" Jesus stated, not me (Specific): "Go, and sin no more. . ." John 8:11 5:14 These are plainly stated verses from our Lord and Saviour. They do not need any explaination, nor commentary by a theologian with a phd. I ask you where does it state in the scripture that we do not have to keep the law? You gave me Romans 1:5, one of my favorite verses, What do we have to obey? I do believe that I asked the original question: "Will sin enter heaven?" Nobody has answered that yet. God Bless you Jeff W |
