    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    If people don't want to believe that their sins are forgiven then they won't receive it and when Jesus told the disciples that the sins they forgive are forgiven then isn't it a shame that people want to say nope to that? It seems to be a trend in modern Christianity to deny a lot of what Jesus...

    What is sin?

    Jesus is awesome for getting you to stop your sin although with some things it takes longer because we know God has a different timing don't we? Look how long it took God to deliver the Savior to us so we see his timing is not our timing so what really really irks me are people who look down...

    What is sin?

    You can begin to suspect all you want but when did you become God to look into people and know if they have faith because that's something that no one seems to have but our triune God so how about you share this special gift or reveal to us how you came to behold such a wonder as to be able to...

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    How about the warden saying what my pastor says in church, "In the stead and by the command of my Lord Jesus Christ I forgive you all your sins in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    The warden is acting on the orders of the king, is he not and then he goes and follows through on what the King has ordained and not just announcing but giving out the freedom. It isn't the Warden's decision to do so but the Kings and it isn't the Warden's freedom being given but the King has...

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    The way I was taught is that it isn't the pastor/priest forgiving but giving out forgiveness because of Christ and that's a huge distinction don't you think because when we think of a pastor forgiving then he's running the verbs. Jesus forgives the sins but works through the pastors to hand out...

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    Sure, anyone can proclaim the forgiveness but Jesus actually told his disciples that if they forgave or retained sins that it would be true and if you think about a warden giving out keys to jail cells, he's actually giving out the pardon that the king set into place and isn't just telling the...

    Justification: By OUR works or CHRIST'S works?

    Mhmm, it's God's love that saves us and For God loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever shall believeth in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

    are we saved if we remain in sin -? no

    Alithis, I agree with scripture and what I disagree with is YOUR interpretation which is a twisting of Law and Gospel and is what others have tried to correct you on and have responded to what you keep on copying and pasting and you don't want to hear it. If you might actually take some time to...

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian is like asking the question do I need Jesus anymore which we know is what the anti-Christ wants people to say and believe.

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    This answers the OPs questions right here and it's Jesus who gave the authority and not by man's doing.

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    We need to hear the Gospel in order to grow in faith because the Law isn't what gives us faith but the Gospel and it's what changes us. Those who speak all Law without Gospel should be avoided and in turn those who speak all gospel without law should also be avoided because sound doctrine knows...

    What is sin?

    This is an extensive biblical explanation but not all Christians want to hear that because they think they can be good and please God yet God wants our faith in Him because his first commandment is to have no other gods before HIm and what does that mean but that we are to fear, love and trust...

    Great post on explaining the true nature of sin and how we don't live up.

    are we saved if we remain in sin -? no

    In a previous post pages back in this thread, Alithis wrote that if the Holy Spirit didn't convict him of sin that he was innocent since if he didn't know he was committing a sin that he wasn't guilty yet that isn't a biblical concept and here's the clincher, he really believes that he's on the...

    Which name do you prefer?

    I voted Lord God because sometimes it's Lord and sometimes it's God but I don't think I really put the two together and call him Lord God so maybe I shouldn't have voted that way?
