Can human beings live without sinning NOW?

06.MAR.09

Editor: Can you live in this present world without sinning? Crimes and violence such as murder, rape, robbery and theft seem to be the order of the day. As a result, many people have difficulty fathoming the great truth concerning living free from sin (sinless) right now.{{more}}

Throughout the ages, this very important Bible truth has been lost through the dark influence of the Roman Catholic Church System and has spread throughout fallen Christianity.

It is very sad that Christianity has been infiltrated by such dangerous, anti-sinlessness, erroneous doctrine. Yes, dangerous and deceptive! Because a person believing such false knowledge would continue to be a slave to sin, while thinking and calling himself/herself a Christian. This kind of lifestyle misrepresents the character and work of Jesus Christ to save from sin. This brings reproach upon the Gospel and true Christianity.

Thankfully, you need not doubt, despair or worry any longer. God is truth and His inspired word, lived out through the experiences of men like Enoch, Elijah and Paul, gives us the assurance that we can live morally perfect now, in this present world. Moreover, we are given the science or the ‘know how’ of how this biblical fact can be made a reality in our lives. In Titus 2:11, 12, we are told: ‘For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously and godly, IN THIS PRESENTWORLD.’

How can we stop sinning and remain this way unto the coming of Jesus Christ?’ The scripture tells us that the Truth (Jesus) makes us free from sin. ‘And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. If the Son, therefore, shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.’ We know that Jesus Christ is not physically here with us today but He dwells with us through His word abiding in our minds, cleansing us from all iniquity and keeping us from falling into sin. This word is also called the seed, the faith and the truth.

‘Whosoever is born of God do not commit sin; for His seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, our faith.

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.1John 3:9; 1 John5:4; 1Peter 1:23. If the word of God is not sufficient to convince you of the possibility and reality of living sinless NOW, then nothing else would!

So, today, as you have heard the voice of God through His holy scriptures, harden not your heart; for without holiness (SINLESSNESS) no man shall see God-Hebrews 12:14.
