Paul in Romans 7 says we are all slaves to sin, and nothing we can say or do will ever change that, that is why Christ died on the cross.. Not so we can pretend that we have stopped sinning, but that we can find attonement for the sins we can not help but do. On both sides of our conversion.
Quote:And if you are right, it proves you are right once and for all. Don't worry about the sinning part, god will forgive you probably.....In my younger days I struggled with sexual purity, and even now I know if I do not intentionally avoid those problem areas in my life I could fall back into sexual sin. My sins were of the hetero nature, but as defined and classified in scripture they were still considered sexual sin. (Much how lust and adultery are synomous or hate and murder) to God they are the same sins. When classifying sexual sin all sin found outside the confines of a Sanctified marriage share the same classification. Which mean whether your sexual sin of choice is homo or hetero in nature it warrants the same Hell without atonement. Like wise whether your sexual sin is homo or hetero in nature the same atonement will forgive it.
Cue excuses as to why he won't turn gay to prove a point in 3.2.1.
The identification of sin is to point to everyone at every step of this life whether saved or not that we are always in sin and need an on going attonement.. Likewise we must I turn provide an on going forgiveness for those who sin against us.

So it means nothing and nothing else?
In the context I was speaking..
