Word play.

Then why did God tell us to abstain from sinful behavior and all sin? How could someone that is sinful from conception with a genetic disposition ever accomplish that?

Did I ever say I conquered all my sins? I never said I was perfect.. What I'm saying is that you can break the habit if you want. But all sin? I'm sure I might sin again because of what is in my heart.. Not my genetics.

Btw.. You should watch the SDA Hope channel sometime. Last week they had an entire show on victory over sin where they quoted 1 Cor 6:11, Romans 6:12, Romans 6:13-14, etc..
If you knew me personally, you'd actually SEE me on the HOPE channel. But that's not here nor there.

Actually you did say you conquered all your sin habits. Do need your words quoted back to you...again?

Which false hope do you speak of. Don't throw out accusations and leave them up in the air. Let's be honest and state the false hope YOU SAY I am giving. Now go up a few sentences are re-read the line under WORD PLAY then let's reexamine this accusation you so freely throw about.

Dear Lord, save us from your followers.
Funny... I never said that I conquered them all.

Ok... I'm locking this thread. I think we've had enough play here...
