If it is a self-righteous work, it is sin. If to glorify God it is not sinning. Free will is nothing but self-glorification and self-righteousness.I knew you would say that.
So we don’t receive rewards in heaven according to our deeds?
“For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.”
Matthew 16:27 NASB
“Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
Matthew 5:12 NASB
“"Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. "So when you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.”
Matthew 6:1-4 NASB
If it is a self-righteous work, it is sin. If to glorify God it is not sinning. Free will is nothing but self-glorification and self-righteousness.
If it is a self-righteous work, it is sin. If to glorify God it is not sinning. Free will is nothing but self-glorification and self-righteousness.
Only those born again have free will. The rest are slaves to sin.Paul encouraged people to do good of their own free will.
“but without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your goodness would not be, in effect, by compulsion but of your own free will.”
Philemon 1:14 NASB
Those born again have free will.so we have no free will then? Then how do you explain this statement made by Paul?
“Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”
Ephesians 4:30 NASB
If we have no free will who is causing people to grieve the Holy Spirit?
Oh and why do all Christians sin?
Only those born again have free will. The rest are slaves to sin.
Free will is nothing but self-glorification and self-righteousness.
Only those born again have free will. The rest are slaves to sin.
Born again free will is not sinful flesh free will that can only sin.mare you just making this up as you go along because your contradicting yourself here?
Born again free will is not sinful flesh free will that can only sin.
The flesh is free only to sin. It cannot choose righteousness. If so, choose to be perfect.So now we have two kinds of free will? Ok so if “born again free will is not sinful” why did Paul say this?
“Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”
Ephesians 4:30 NASB
