Go And Sin No More by Missyajoke(f): 3:29pm On Jul 25, 2020
John 8:11
"She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more."
I guess the strongest argument is that impossible not to sin. But why would Jesus say, "Sin no more" in John 5:14 and 8:11. Is Jesus being facetious because He knew it was impossible to do? Does he mean, don't do a particular sin any more? God expects us to stop sinning. God expects prefeection in our lives.
Matthew 5:48
"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."
My belief is that it is possible to live a life where we "sin no more" although I cannot say it's a fact in my life, what do you believe and why?

Remarkably, those who should be most in tune with the venomous nature of sin have been deceived into thinking that this three-letter word is not deadly. Nothing has assaulted the clarity of the Scriptures and grieved my heart more than to hear "so-called Christians" claim that repentance is optional, holiness is legalistic and sin is permissible. In order for salvation to be effective, individuals must see themselves as sinners who have fallen short of God's glory. They must entrust themselves to the One who "did not come to call the righteous, but sinners" (Mk. 2:17). They must emulate the spiritually bankrupt Tax Collector who beat on his breast and cried, "Be merciful to me, the sinner" (Lk. 18:13). Then, after acknowledging their guilt before a holy God, they are to commit to a life that seeks to turn from sin and pursue holiness. In other words, for salvation to be true, there must be an ongoing pursuit of repentance. Apart from repentance, there is no salvation.


Happy Weekend to you all kiss kiss kiss

Yes ma.

We minus "holiness" from other characteristics when we say we are created in God's image.

Sin is a stopper, and must be stopped.

God bless you for this piece.

Thanks.
