I have no idea what you just said.
We can not obey him by doing our own will instead Of his.
Be doesn't make us robots.
He makes us Free.
This means we have the true capacity of choice returned to us.
But if there is a practice of sin you can't break away from and forsake doing,then that person is not yet free .they are still a slave to sin awaiting the wage of it.
Once we repent Jesus forgives us through baptism, makes us new ..
The new we become is free from bondage to sin.
It does not mean we cannot do works of sin.it means we don't HAVE to.
But if we choose to..and keep choosing to
We serve sin..and become a slave again.
And there is no one who can die for us a second time.
Because Christ ,having been resurrected can NOT die.
So we need to live this new life very very very carefully.

Hi Si, so are you saying that when you act according to your old nature and sin/do what you know is displeasing to God, you never feel guilty about it?If a person experiences guilt, he is not yet set free from the law.
Have you read the letters of the apostles lately ? They didnt write verses .they wrote whole letters and you need to read them as while letters and they are full of life free from sin and warning of those who refuse to stop..
The only thing you keep doing is repeating yourself, and your beliefs, you do not provide any Scripture which backs up your statements.
I don't want an interpretation of what you believe scripture says, give me a Scripture, which says it.
Rubbish.If a person experiences guilt, he is not yet set free from the law.
Indeed!If a person experiences guilt, he is not yet set free from the law.
Not sure why your asking.It's like a hot or cold question, do you believe Jesus has set you free? Do you believe you are free indeed, or not? A double minded rwcievws nothing from God, or our footsteps become ordered to us, when we believe that they are.
And...do those who then walk after the flesh and do works of sin ..walk after the spirit..? NopeIndeed!
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death."
Rubbish.
A person experiences guilt when they are guilty of doing sin .
Like if they turn on thier computer and Google inappropriate content ...afterwards they feel guilty for doing so.
Because they ARE guilty of doing so.
And if they keep doing so.scripture states they do not know God .
They need to repent of dead works of sin
And...do those who then walk after the flesh and do works of sin ..walk after the spirit..? Nope
So unless they repent Of doing so they have only a fearful expectation of the full anger Of God.
Yes he sets us free.cleanses us.So, how can these be free in Truth? HE promises to take away our sin, cleanse our conscience...No one can reason with God without becoming clean. "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."
"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
If you love Him you won't go and Do works of sin . so if you go and do works of sin you dont love him and have very much to fear."There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love."
Duality within is not being ONE...IN Christ. But it is part of the process taking place within...losing our soul to find it again.
Not sure why your asking.
I pretty much said I both beleive it and Am set free.
Thats why I said..“ Free to choose”.
And warn, if in our freedom we choose to sin ...and refuse to stop choosing sin.it will master us again and we will lose that freedom and perish.
Freedom doesn't mean you can do any thing you want without consequence.
It means your free to make the choice.
.Have you read the letters of the apostles lately ? They didnt write verses .they wrote whole letters and you need to read them as while letters and they are full of life free from sin and warning of those who refuse to stop.
And I assure you in the name of JESUS.I am not speaking “a belief” I testify that Jesus is come to set is free from sin .
And he has acomplished exactly that.
But it is up to us to obey him now we are made free by him .
The command to repent. In acts 2...is not an auto pilot ,program in hit enter and it just happens..it is a command that we of our own will must decide to Do.
The command to be baptised is not going to automatically happen ..we must obey it by going and doing it as an act of obedience .thats what faith is.the action you do when you truly believe.
Every child who is in the fathers house has the ability to obey it disobey.
But if we disobey we show we do not live God.
Read the full letter of John .
That we are free from sin
Read the full letter to the Romans .
That we Have the ability to sin but must NOT.read the letters from Peter.
.
So few people can even endure reading it any more.they just skim to thier favourite sentances.its a pathetic effort.
I'm not going to give you chapter and verse. Chopping out of context sentances. Go read the while thing .get the big picture.
