Is there a Sinful lifestyle?

Sure you can turn your back on sin and avoid it most of the time. But the fact that you lack divinity means you are bound to slip at some point and need grace and forgiveness.

Do you know of anyone that does the good they know to do all all the time without fail? Because that too is a sin if you know the good you ought to do and don't do it.

What about those who never attempt to turn?

answered. You were told that anyone who is overcome by sin isn't following the Lord
which is what I told you is required.

It doesn't have to be sexual in nature, it can be any sin, any hate, anything that is sin. The

Let me ask it another way.

Does a person who supports homosexuality and abortion have assurance of salvation?

You didn't get the answer you were looking for, now you want to attempt to get it another
way? Assurance of salvation is give by the Spirit of God, sin brings about death, following
the Spirit we will put away our sinful nature. If you are asking can someone follow the
Spirit of God and not be perfected yet, yes all of us who are following God's Spirit fall into
that, and the closer we are to God the less this world can have a destructive affect upon
our lives.

You really want to condemn people, when are you going to start looking for ways to bring
people out of sin into God's grace?

What someone supports in their lives today, they can turn away from later. I got saved
I didn't stop doing drugs right a way, I enjoyed them to much, but afterwards I could not
follow God and do them. So I can only tell you that God works on us, from the moment
we are saved until the day we die, no one here answers to me, they answer to Him, and
so I'll let God deal with that question.

You sure do tap dance around a subject.

Let me see if I can clear up your position.

You believe if you believe in Jesus then there is no such thing as sin. You can do whatever you wish and you are still going to heaven.

I never said such things.

Perhaps you can give examples of types of people who accept Jesus but do not have salvation.

All of those who don't have the Spirit of God within them. If you don't have God's Spirit you don't know God, neither can you follow the Spirit!

Can God give assurance of salvation to those that belong to Him?

So you assume all those who claim Jesus as lord are going to heaven no matter how they live.

You would do well to just read what people write instead of twisting other's words into to things they didn't say!

If there is one, gluttony will certainly be one of the sins.

Do you accept that?

Ignored. Haha.

Do you think having the Spirit of the Lord within you has nothing to do with God?

I think that it is impossible to tell the difference just by looking at a person.

How do you know someone is filled with the holy spirit?
