1 | why do we sin when sin has no mastery? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman2 | 80780 | ||
You write: "We must choose to crucify the flesh daily." Yet Paul writes in (NASB) Galatians 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me." "I HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED" -- not "I crucify the flesh DAILY." "I HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED" (past tense). Again, writing in (NASB) Colossians 3:3 Paul says: "For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God." "You have died" -- not "you ought to die." "HAVE DIED" (past tense). NASB Romans 6:11 Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. AMPLIFIED Romans 6:11 Even so consider yourselves also dead to sin and your relation to it broken, but alive to God [living in unbroken fellowship with Him] in Christ Jesus. |

Thank you for pointing out how easy it is to be sucked up in religion miss the truth of the Word of God. I see that God is even cooler than I thought. I do not have to renounce my flesh every day, God placed it on the cross with Christ. I searched for a scripture that would justify what I said and could find none, only 1 Corinthians 15:31 came close. That scripture in context does not fit what I said. I am glad that iron sharpens iron. | ||||||
