@Bible Highlighter - You have attained to the status of God Himself! Because that's what it means to be a mortal man in a fallen world who has no sin.
One has attained the status of being of the devil if they do the lusts of their father the devil by the fact that they say they must sin again and they are saved while they sin.

Jesus said, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.“ (John 8:44).

John said, “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.” (1 John 3:8).

How in the world, did you ever attain to the state of sinlessness is what I'd like to know!

How in the world do you twist verses like John 8:44 and 1 John 3:8 to defend your false sin and still be saved type belief is what I’d like to know!

We are to let Christ shine in our lives.

”He must increase, but I must decrease.” (John 3:30).

”For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” (Philippians 1:21).
Well you must have done Jesus something real proud attaining to such an awesome state of sinlessness!

Because.... dude... Jesus is just shining all the way through you!

You don't know? But you're sinless. How do you not know these things?

All faithful believers who endure to the end will attain this. But in the sin and still be saved type belief, this is just not possible, which should trouble you seeing it runs contrary to almost every turn of the page in your New Testament. But then you again, you need to read and accept the Bible plainly in what it says vs. what you want it to say.

Even Jesus Omniscience was suppressed during His earthly ministry, and yet He was without sin.

My false sin.... Wait a minute Wait a minute.

I'm getting closer to sinless perfection.

:sohappy:
Right, you later appeared to agree with John Piper’s insane ramblings in that he says he still does his sins and yet he does not have them anymore because his sins are not on him.

Well how'd you do this? How'd you go from being a sinner to being sinless? Man that's an accomplishment even Jesus Christ didn't pull off!

Knowing that a person‘s old life was a sinner, and then they can become a believer and overcome their sin is taught in the Bible (See: 1 Peter 4:1-2, 2 Corinthians 7:1, Galatians 5:24). We know this because we read and accept what the Bible says. You should try it sometime.

@Bible Highlighter - Dude; think you just shoved Jesus off His throne!
@Bible Highlighter - I'd be careful there if I was you. I've heard He don't take too kindly to that!
These kinds of ramblings and insults are not profitable or edifying to the church as a whole. Your approach is that of a name calling third grader who is trying to justify wrong doing. Moving on from this discourse unless you can give some word for word commentaries on some of the key verses I brought forth.

I'll get back to you as soon as I attain to sinlessness.
