VictorC;
Why do you sin?
Why does God give us His promise to forget our sin in the present tense? "Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more."
It is obvious that sin continues: "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us" (1 John 1:8).

What about our future sins?

When we come to Jesus He washes us of our past sins and gives us a clean slate. Listen to the words in how they speak of forgiveness in a present tense for a past violation.

2 Peter 1:9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

Colossians 2:13 And when you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions.

But do you think that just because God, through Christ, has forgiven us of our past sins He will overlook our future sins?

Sorry if you do...

What is our part in the turning away from future sins under the new covenant?

James 5:19-20 Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 3:2-4 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

2 Corinthians 7:1 Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Matthew 6:14-15 "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. "But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

2 Peter 3:14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

Here is how sin takes hold of new covenant Christians to the point of spiritual death.

James 1:13-15 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God''; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

Do not be deceived my beloved brother.

I have dozens more but I think you undertand now how foolish and silly you've been.

The Law has no capacity to forgive sin...amen...and forgiveness has no capacity to define sin.

It isn't okay to sin that's why we need confession and forgiveness.
You just got done explaining that there is no forgiveness available for you under the law.
This reply you have just given proves without a doubt that you, and all your followers, are lacking a clear undestanding of truth.
Who are my followers? Do you realize that you have concluded yourself unforgiven and unsaved from your sins? All you seem able to do is resort to personal attacks and show a lack of reasoning acumen.

You should keep on quoting the dozens more verses you think you have. Hundreds. Post all of them. In each and every one of these that you provided, you don't seem able to see for yourself that forgiveness is an attribute appealed to from God. You will not find that appeal to the law, and this is because the law was never given that attribute God retained to Himself.

Writing posts to show yourself unforgiven and condemned before the Living God exemplify the height of personal delusion, k4c.

GOD is its origin!
Yes indeed, and God handed the law to Moses. That's the reason the covenant issued from Mount Sinai is commonly called the Mosaic covenant. It didn't exist until God handed it to Moses, as Moses testified in Deuteronomy 5:2-3 showing the ten commandments didn't exist prior to his own generation.

That's the testimony of Scripture, but it isn't what you alleged in earlier posts.

You can either come up with an origin for the law outside of Moses, or honestly concede the error you presented.
The only outlet at this juncture is a concession driven by an inherent desire for personal integrity, and that's what the members of this forum are patiently hoping to see from you.

This kind of response does nothing but damage your credibility and forces a conclusion that you're comfortable promoting a lie.
