Jesus was manifested to take away our sin and in Him is no sin.


Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes we were healed. Reckon therefore yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? He that commits sin is a servant to sin. But the Son has made us free and free we are indeed! That the righteousness of the Law be fulfilled in us; that walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh.
For we are dead, nevertheless we live. Yet not us but Christ liveth in us. And the life we now live in the flesh we live by the Faith of the Son of GOD who gave himself for us.
So Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ (the word; the Law; the Commandments) down from above) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ (the word; the Law; the Commandments) again from the dead.) But what saith it? The word (Christ; the Law; the Commandments) is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart (and in thy mind) : that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
For Christ (the word; the Law; the Commandments in our hearts, mouths and minds) is the end of the law (written with ink and Tables of Stone) for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Forasmuch as we are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.

(1Pe 2:24; 2Co 5:15; Rom 6:11-16. 10:6-8 10:4, 9:31-32; 2Co 3:3-5; John 5:14)

Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 1 John 3:7

Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 1 John 3:7



JLB
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of GOD was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For GOD hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of GOD in Him.
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes we were healed.


(1Jn 3:8; Rom 8:4; 2Co 5:21;1Pe 2:2)

It is the Gospel.

That is all well and good; However, this is Traditional Theology.From the statement of purpose for this sub forum:

Traditional Theology -- A forum dedicated to the respectful discussion of traditional, historic theology; liturgical practices, doctrines, dogmatics; Holy Scripture as found in the various canons of the Church; Church History; classic confessions of the faith, etc.

Definition of Traditional Christianity:

Traditional Christians hold to the traditional beliefs and customs of the early church that Jesus Christ established and believe they should be acknowledged and used in the development of the Church today. Traditional Christians believe that the Church and associated Tradition - especially from the Apostolic / early Church - guide us even today. These traditions include sources such as church councils and creeds, writings of the early Church Fathers, testimony of the Lives of the Saints, classic confessions of the faith, etc. Many traditional Christians believe that each Christian is involved in a movement toward God, commonly known as theosis or sanctification. Traditional Christians recognize a variety of sacraments and sacramental acts including, but not limited to; Baptism, Holy Communion (Eucharist), Confession and Absolution, Chrismation (confirmation) etc., and consider them to be additional means whereby God imparts His grace on those who have faith.​
