NASB | Romans 6:2 May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 6:2 Certainly not! How can we, the very ones who died to sin, continue to live in it any longer? |
Subject: Is iT possible to live without sin? |
Bible Note: Not sin, because volition is not there. If a single woman is raped, I would not call it fornication, either. There has to be a moral weakness/willfulness present in order for the action in which we participate to be called sin. You wrote: "I disagree with the implication that we can't start living lives without sin because Christ is so different than us. We have the same Spirit in us that was in Christ Jesus, and Jesus said that we would do greater things than Him." The first sentence proves my point I made earlier. To say we are sinless at this point is to say that we are not-so-different from Christ in his behavior. That is simply false. As for your second sentence, which verse are you citing, so that we can take a closer look at what Jesus actually said and to whom? --Joe! |
