Why Do Christians Still Sin?

#sin #identityinChrist #biblestudy

As a believer in Jesus, the Bible assures that you are a new person. In the process of becoming new, your sin nature was cut out of you and you received the righteous nature of Jesus (Romans 6:6; Colossians 2:11; Ephesians 4:24). The result is that you are not a sinner.

Romans 7:17, 18 tells us we do have a sin nature in us, the potential desire to sin is there . This is where I disagree with what you say.
I wholeheartedly agree because Jesus our savior nailed our sins to the cross, we now have a new identity in Christ.

Christian think they still sin because they forget that we are perfect and sinless in Christ. Our old sinful self was crucified with Christ and we were given a new perfect incorruptible sinless self. When we were raised in Him, we were seated with Him in Heaven. Jesus is there seated in Heaven and he is here in our hearts. Likewise our new self is seated with Christ in Heaven and is also still here with Christ in the new sinless heart that He's given us. Unfortunately, we still have the evil alien parasite of sin living in us, but not in our born-again sinless hearts. This evil parasite of sin is from Satan who infected Adam and Eve and it's been passed down to all of us. It's always trying to tempt control and destroy us, if we let it reign in us. We don't have to let it reign in us if we keep on guard and keep rejecting it. We can reject it knowing that we are already perfect in Christ and need nothing that deceitful sin is offering. It will always look tempting but will always leave us wishing we had rejected it. But in any case it can never harm or touch our incorruptible born-again selves. We can rest and walk in the victory that Jesus gained for us when He took all of our sin to the cross.
Paul taught us in Romans 7:17 & 7:20 that it is no longer us who sin, but rather the parasite of evil sin living in us that does the evil sinning. (If we let it, so let's keep rejecting its temptations, and keep walking in the Spirit, knowing we are perfect forever in Him.)

When Jesus died on the cross for our sins, he made a new covenant for his true followers. He was able to send the Holy Spirit to transform us to righteousness and conquer the flesh nature to set us free from the practice of sin, and it's desires. I think it is possibly even blasphemy against the Holy Spirit when people deny the power of the Holy Spirit to transform us to righteousness.
The Apostle Paul said that we are not in the flesh if the Holy Spirit lives in us.
2 Corinthians 10:3 Paul also tells us that we have been set free from sinful desires: "For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh."
Isaiah 53:5 says:
"But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds WE ARE HEALED."
Before Jesus came, the law that people lived under could not conquer the flesh nature. That is why people had to sacrifice animals repeatedly.
The cleansing that God provides is not temporary. It is permanent. When he cleanses us from ALL sin, we are made righteous.
Hebrews 7:27 says:
"He (Jesus) has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself." When Christians repent of their sins daily they don't have the Holy Spirit. They are still living under the Old Covenant, because they can't get clean.
Many Christians mock the Holy Spirit by saying it is impossible to conquer the flesh nature and stop sinning. They don't believe. They are watering down and diminishing the power of the Holy Spirit in their own minds & in the minds of others. They are mocking the miracle of transformation that brings us Salvation.
People flock to false religion due to the corruption in their hearts.
False Christians will dilligently search their bibles looking for loopholes to sin.
1 Peter 2:24 confirms that it is possible to stop sinning:
"He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” When we are healed from the bondage of sin, it is permanent.
"If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed."
Scripture describes false converts as continuing in sin, because they deny the power of the Holy Spirit.
2 Timothy 3:5 "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."
Scripture gives a strong warning of eternal damnation to those who reject the New Covenant by sinning:
Hebrews 10:28-29
"Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?"
God's grace does not free us to sin. It does not cover continued sin or future sins. It does not forgive deliberate sin. It frees us from sin. Ungodly Christians reject the gift of righteousness that God offers. False Christians cling to a doctrine of demons that tells them they get to keep their sins, and there is no penalty. This is much more appealing to false converts than the thought of giving up their sins.
John 3:36 jesus said, "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."
If people can't understand the clear language that Jesus used, perhaps their hearts have become hardened.
God, in his wisdom, does not leave us in a sinful condition, because over time, sin destroys the human conscience. When this happens, they are lost.
We can see evidence of a darkened conscience and a hardened heart when people mock and ridicule the precious gift that Jesus gave up his life to bring to us so that we can recieve righteousness that is required for Salvation.
When Christians reject the New Covenant, Jesus will reject them, and they will have to pay the full penalty that that the Law always required for disobedience under the Old Covenant. That means eternal damnation.

Real Christians are partakers of the divine nature, according to Peter. The Bible teaches that "just as He is, so are we in this world." When will the ignorant wake up? How long will the simple love simplicit?

Can you talk about Gods position with slavery…

We all have weaknesses and desires humanly speaking cause we are human and only human. christ was God and man. We continue in sin cause its our nature to do so how we look upon it changes though. Some have more urges than others. You will never be perfect and will have sin on you one way or another. Rejoice and praise the lord jesus for taking on sin and confess it to him for this why he was born. If you don't sin you obviously don't need jesus which is a lie cause we all sin. Born sinners died sinners. Just do the best you can and confess occasionally. Needing Jesus is the only way to heaven. The rest is self righteous pride like that of Adam that led to Satan.

Mother Teresa always said a saint is a sinner that keeps trying, you will constantly fall and get back up throughout your life don't know how else to say it. You continue by hope and faith.

because they have not been perfected yet ie new body

So, even, if we no longer have a sin nature, the habits left behind can cause us to still sin. So how is that being a new creature in Christ?
