Sure as long as you recognize there is more to it.

What about in self defense?

Man has put 'wiggle room' into those commandments.

Thou shalt not steal.

What if a starving person takes a loaf of bread? He either dies, or eats.

Stop pretending that this is a cut and dry topic.

God created sin, because God created humans.

Deal with it.
So God is responsible for the choices you make? Does God force you to drink or was it your choice?

Of course there is more to it.

In the end God makes the call, not us, even for our own salvation.

You just said that honest mistakes and hateful actions are the same in the eyes of your god, according to you.

Why this need to label yourselves as sinners???

Horrible, horrible people who need Jesus??

I don't accept that.

God created us, as HE wanted to create us.

Don't pretend that "sin" and a "talking snake" changes that.

Yes that is right sin is sin if you realize it or not. Do you think drinking poison will only kill you if your aware you drank poison.

Poison doesn't require our awareness that it is poison. I kinda expected more from an almighty god.

I've said it before: this god you peddle is evil, and you just confirmed that point again.

The term 'evil' as you use it, does it describe actions that you view to be morally unsound for only you or for everyone?

Why do you attack other posters? Your views twist around and around from day to day
and never seems to stay the same.

Neither does sin, you don't have to be aware of sin to be guilty of it, since there are
more than a few people who no longer feel bad when they do wrong. The ability to
feel bad or guilty is not required, if it were than those that could harm others without
guilt would be guiltless. What will happen is that we will hold others accountable for
the very things we do, thus we will condemn ourselves by our own actions and words.

The only way to stay clear on what is and isn't the right thing to do is through the
leading of God's Spirit in one's life. Without God you will be on your own to do things
as you see fit, and you will be held accountable for those choices and actions too.

You can claim God is a peddler of evil, but when you are confronted with both God
and your life, you will have no excuses, but will stand accountable for what you claim
is the way it should be now.

Great. So even gentiles, who adhere to their conscience where God's law is written, but still occasionally sin, are also saved.

I can sleep soundly tonight.
I didn't say that.

All of us have disobeyed God's commands at some point, that makes us sinners. It's really not a difficult concept to understand.

Every Christian that is saved that wasn't a Jew was a Gentile. So yes Gentiles can be saved, if they submit to the word of God.

Sure, but then atheists (being non-Jewish) are also Gentiles.
