Allow me to point out your sin that you need to repent of since you have said that you no longer sin and have turned away yet you blatantly are rude to people here on this message board and that has nothing to do with spouting scripture because you don't love your neighbors as much as you love yourself. I have read some of your posts here that show you to be condescending and that isn't loving. So repent of your sinful behaviour and yes it is sinful. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you which means cool it and be kind.
You see you still sin. That means you are human. We are only perfect because we are covered by Christ. Repent.
mmmm interesting -you don't yet know the difference between rebuke and correction and every time you're faced with the dilemma of something pointed out to you that you don't want to face up to.. you respond by attacking the character of the messenger with loose accusations .
when my children were in the wrong i told them off (rebuked) and i then straightforwardly correct them that they may be aware of the error of their ways .. If i DID NOT do so.. then THAT would not be loving them . it is the same here . it would NOT be love to appease the conscience of continues sin which leads to death. in fact to do that would be the most hateful action i could take as it encourages people to remain on a course of action which brings death . So i speak the truth .And for the most part i do so by simply Quoting the word of GOd and it is like a sword .. it cuts to the bone of the matter ..it separates spirit from flesh -the flesh mind does not like to hear the word of God - it cuts . but the Spirit delights in it for it is freedom to the Spirit and death to the flesh .
do unto others you say .. ouh i assure you I am .as i always prefer correction over error of sin.
.
as is one of my favorite verses "let the righteous smite me it is a blessing unto me "..pp David said this because he understood that to be told off and rebuked brings correction of direction away from that which can destroy your life and back onto the path of righteousness .
in your misunderstanding you equate rebuke and correction to sin. which is of course another error .
so your telling me to repent of speaking truth and calling it sin to continue doing so?.. no, it is always Love to speak the truth .the gospel is good news unto those who believe and Jesus said those who believe OBEY ,so we know those who do not obey only say they believe with their lips but their heart is far fro the lord .
your calling it rude simply because the truth i have spoken to you makes
you uncomfortable and enrages your flesh - perhaps you desire to look for a way to silence me .. a cross perhaps will do -you can nail me to it that might silence me ? -YEs a harsh rebuke indeed .
you will observe that i have never accused you of sin
i has stated across threads that we must obey the lord jesu and repent of sin(it means turn from it and stop doing it )
i have asked you "if you keep doing a sin that your cant stop what is it ? you decline to answer .
i have showed you scripture after scripture after scripture about how continuance of sin is unacceptable and how we can be truly
free
but i have never accused you of sin as you have just accused me
-the word of god can only make us aware of sin in our life ..if there is sin in our life . and if there is sin in our life (we speak of unambiguous known sin by will ) the the lord desires us to BE FREE thats what he wants for us and provides for us -and he tells us the way to be free - REPENT and be baptised and you will recive the holy Ghost .
