mployer:If the kind of ministers you prefer to listen to are those that tell you no one can be perfect, you're being misled. And perfection here is not by human standard, it's by God's. And holiness is by having the consciousness of God's will and standard in all your ways. So, Yes! One can live above sin by that measure. Now go and actually read your new testament and ask for divine understanding. The Letter Killeth, But the Spirit Gives Life! |

dodelight: You can't kill it. It is in your flesh, your corruptible flesh. You can only live above it by subjecting the flesh under control through the Holy Spirit. But anytime you thread the part of flesh(which will surely happen as human) it will show up |

Freeezzz: Go and sin no more was an empowerment not an order or advice. The woman has no power to stop sin except she is forgiven and empowered by christ. She can stop for a while but she will still go back to it. That is the human nature. |

mployer:Obviously, your choice of word was just for argument sake. Apostle Paul used the word 'motify'. Do u kno what that means? |

dodelight: Apostle Paul said he is the chief of sinners. Go figure. |

mployer:.. God says "be holy for i am holy". Find out more about grace from galatian 2;8-end, Titus 2:11 and romans 6. Ignorance will not be an excuse on judgement day. |

mployer:.. Try and find out if he was refering to his past or present. When the bible says: all have sin and come short of God's glory, He was refering to the past (for a born again). Acts 17:20: the past God overlook, but now He commands people everywhere to repent". |

FarmTech: He used present tense. He never said he was. |
Re: How To Train Your Dragons – Killing Pet Sins Before They Kill You by FarmTech(m): 10:51am On Oct 15, 2017 |
mployer:.. The tense is not very important here. What is important is the context. Pls read 1 timothy 1:12-end and get the context right. He was talking about his past, before his conversion. |

mployer:And what's the essence of the Holy Spirit you received that doesn't give one the power over sin. Don't forget Phil. 4:13. Again, Jesus does not 'nurse' a situation, He 'heals' it. 2 Likes 1 Share |

mployer:Before he was saved, Yes. (And not chief sinner while being an apostle). Go figure! It's obvious you'll use just any scripture you can lay hands on to excuse sin. |

FarmTech:Don't mind him. Just like the Bible says: "When they read Moses and the law, the veil covered their eyes. And even until these days there's still a veil covering their eyes". They read the letters of the Bible, forgetting that the letter killeth but the Spirit gives life. |

Freeezzz: You can't work in the spirit 247 of your life. Anytime the flesh shows up, you are liable to sin. |

mployer:"Liable" to sin? Yes of course! Can't work in the Spirit? No sir, I don't believe this gospel. If truly we're one with the Father and He surely abides in us, I see no reason why we "can't" work in the Spirit, we just might "choose" to ignore the Spirit due to the workings of the flesh. But guess what? That's why Jesus had to die on the cross to pay for the sins we are "liable" to commit due to the weakness of our flesh -we call it Grace. And please, Grace isn't one's licence to sin but to an opportunity to learn and be better in Christ Jesus. https://samsoncog..co.ke/2017/09/grace-your-licence-to-sin.html?m=1 |

Freeezzz: You can't work in Spirit everyday of your life. Be realistic. The flesh will show up once in a while. God made it that way to remind of your humanity. |
Re: How To Train Your Dragons – Killing Pet Sins Before They Kill You by Freeezzz(m): 6:22pm On Oct 15, 2017 |
mployer:Hahaha! Ok sir. I truly understand you. We all have our own perspective of what Christianity is all about -the faith, Grace, Holy Spirit, redemption...and all. But before I proceed, kindly permit me to ask you this question: does the Holy Spirit in anyone take sick leave or something? If the answer is no, then the responsibility falls back to the vessel, the man hosting the Spirit. Now, Gal. 2:20: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives 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. So, "the just" lives by faith and not what people say the human body can or cannot do. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but #TrustMe, I strive everday to be just perfect as my Father in Heaven is. It's a state of the mind; you believe you can do it, you confess it and you work towards it. You fall along the way, you pick yourself up, dust yourself and follow the procedure. For some trust in horses and chariots; they are brought down and fallen. But we remember the name of the Lord our God; we are risen and stand upright. Psalms 20:7-8 paraphrased. There wouldn't be a need to be risen if there was no fall in the first place, right? So again, I'm not saying there won't be fall here and there, but it is left for you to remember the Lord as your strength and not just believe but convict yourself that He lives in you 24/7. It's a choice, it's a state of mind. |

mployer: You mustn't attack the preacher to validate your unrighteousness. Truth isn't relative, whether he practices it or not has nothing to do with you assimilating the message 1 Like 1 Share |

Freeezzz: Your Christianity is the type that is centered on works. It's the weakest form of Christianity. You are not different from the old testament folks that lived under the law. The message of grace sounds too outlandish to your type. You strive everyday to impress God with your good works, then you fail and your faith weakens and the devil takes advantage of that. Embrace grace, embrace the righteousness christ bought with His precious blood, seize from your works. Accept the love and forgiveness of sin that is in christ Jesus. It is called justification by faith. That is what the gospel is all about. GOSPEL actually means GOOD NEWS. It may sound too good to be true but it is true. 2 Likes 1 Share |

mployer:My Christianity? Really brother? Wow! For the sake of fairness, read my last two comment you replied. But, you my friend, are very confused and more so trying to confuse others. You first started with one can't be in the Holy Spirit 24/7, and I asked if the Holy Spirit goes on vacation in your life. You also wrote that I should be realistic that, one is liable to sin when the flesh comes in and I responded by telling the essence of Grace and how it works. So, I brought up the Grace first and now you are telling me that there's Grace? Really?! May God through His Spirit fill you with wisdom sir. I drop my pen. 1 Like 1 Share |

mployer:.. The answer to this questn can be complicated. How will flesh show up? In what form? Remember that there are sins that must not be mentioned among christians. Somebody shud not go and fornicate, murder, smoke, get drunk, listen to ungodly music, watch porn etc once in a while and tell be the flesh have to show up sometimes. 1 Like |

mployer:.. The guy u are attacking is right. U talk as if work shud be dead in us. But that is not what the bible teaches. Philippians 3:12- I do not claim that I have already become perfect. I keep striving to win the prize for which christ jesus has already won me to himself. Ephessians 2:8-10 made use know that grace stopped our useless wk and start God's useful wk in us. Also remember that faith without wk is dead- James 2. Grace teaches us to say no to ungodliness-Titus 2:11-12. B4 u can say no to fornication or ungodly musics, u need to make a conscious effort even as u pray. U dont just relax and say that u depend on Christ's righteousness. That's just one way people use to deceive themselves. |
