Weak Christian

-Removed-

Both Rajk999 and ThinkOfOne have provided Bible verses that Jesus said it is not only possible to live sin free, but expected.

Jesus said it.

I cannot, it was a while ago.

Maybe they will re-post them.

But I do remember being quite surprised to read those verses.

It doesn't mean they don't exist.
Be patient, they will surface.

Do you think anyone can avoid sin in their own strength and power?

No I don't.
I had thought we were supposed to sin as little as possible, while making progress throughout life, but then in another thread, months ago, Bible verses were offered where Jesus said we should not sin at all. It's obviously confusing.

I am a theist on a spiritual journey.
Besides, you have called yourself a Christian for 30 years and it doesn't seem to have done you much good.
It is how you act and speak, not what you call yourself.

Why would that be confusing you think sinning is something Jesus thinks is okay if you only do it a little

Do you think Jesus wants and expects us to NOT sin? Ever?

"Go, and sin NO more".

I think you need to spend a little time in the book of Romans, Chapters 7 and 8.

So, you're not interested in why you are weak, what you should do about it, or what Jesus taught? You only want to deflect from sensitive issues and focus on my previous statements from over a year ago?

"Go and sin NO more".
The words of Jesus.
