Do True Christians stop wrong doing?

 

[Eudaimonist]

I think a better question is: do any Christians stop doing wrong for an appreciable length of time, e.g. >5 years?

 

[MethodMan]

No

 

[kopilo]

They may be able to stop internal "wrongs"... but that is as much as I am aware of.

Do True Christians stop wrong doing?

no ...and the more grievous the sin the more it has to do with doubting what they profess to believe.

 

[ReiBicre]

Some of the other Brothers and Sisters on another thread have made it clear to me that Christians still continue to sin after they have been born again.
True Christians always ask forgiveness of their sins.

I now know that I can still enter the Kingdom of Heaven as long as i confess my sins. I like to have sex with Sisters in the Church and I know it is wrong but as long as I ask forgiveness Jesus forgives me because sex can be a sin just like any other.

Is that clear?

We all agree?

 

[Harpuia]

Do you mean others' wrongdoings or your own wrongdoings?

 

[ReiBicre]

Jesus forgives my wrong doings and yours too.
Am I right?

You've done this thread before haven't you?

I don't agree with you, but I'm sure you'll find a lot of religious people not quite ready to make changes in their lives who believe they can confess with nothing behind it but ritual and all will be well.

Your (Your here being a general you.. not a personal your) intent to continue an act you believe to be in opposition to your faith would indicate a lack of interest in growing in that faith.


Christians continue to do wrong because being a person who NEVER makes a mistake, causes harm, or does something wrong is nearly impossible. Perfection is just not a human trait.

The other Brothers and Sisters helped clear this question up.
We are all saying the same thing but in different ways.

I agree with you.
We must confess our sins and really mean it but that does not mean the Christian stops sinning they say.

We must ask Jesus to forgive us and mean it.

I like sex you might be a liar. We all have our weaknesses. Our sins will not stop us from entering in the Kingdom of Heaven is we confess our sins.

We are all saying the same thing.

The fact that there are Christians who claim that evolution is correct is proof that Christians are not perfect. Believers are viewed by GOD through the blood of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. That makes them righteous.

As best as they know how.

if it's from merely goofing up? then not very likely... however from intently seeking to do evil, much more likely.

AMEN !

I agree.

We are all sinners.

I have sex with Sisters in the Church in moments of weakness. Your sins may be different or do you lust after Church Sisters like me?

 

[Blackmarch]

AMEN !

I agree.

We are all sinners.

<confession of current sin and past sin>?

Uh dude, if you're not trolling... we don't really want to know about your past sins here (maybe some do.. but not very many).
Second repent and seek not for it again.

Christians will still continue to sin even if they do not plan to.

Correct?

 

[Blackmarch]

Christians will still continue to sin even if they do not plan to.

Correct?

as whole they won't reach perfection till after the second coming... however sin and the overcoming and turning away from it is on a personal level that depends on the individual. many have turned away from sin and not returned to it like a dog to it's vomit. If they do it again, it's like their repentence did not take place.
However because one person does it, does that make it justifiable for another to do it?

Yes. A very strong point there Brother.
We Christians are like dogs returning to their vomit everytime we sin but the good news is Jesus forgives us everytime.

Have faith in Jesus.

I might go to see a Sister this week for a Bible study she is very attractive but I must not focus on that.
