I come across people from time to time who say they are born-again but have no idea what sin is...
So how can they repent and be saved, if they don’t know what is sin and what is not sin?
The most common sins in “believers” is fornication and adultery.....
Some asking for prayer against the problem spouse or girlfriend.
You cannot pray for someone’s legitimate spouse when the prayer requester is committing adultery with the mate.
Because of this confusion......, I am listing God’s laws and a list of 'some' sins, as a guideline for people (including myself), who need to examine their own conscience from time to time....
These 10 commandments are central to all God’s laws.... even today.

The 7 Deadly Sins are moral laws which must also be inter alia obeyed if the concept of: "...and the Truth will set you Free...." is fully understood.
The Ten Commandments
I am the LORD thy God

Honor thy father and thy mother
Honoring parents is required, and talking back to them, mistreating them is a sin.

Murder is the taking of an innocent life
This also includes slander and gossip, which is meant to destroy the reputation and life of another person.......
Killing is permitted in war, as self-defense & in killing for food.
If these distinctions are not met in the context it is meant for, -then war and self-defense would not be permitted.....

Stealing can include anything, no matter how small...

Cheating on tests, or in the context of Bribery, -to get things or money unlawfully is also wrong.

A false witness is a liar....

Coveting is wanting that does not belong to you....
This includes jealousy and envy.

Of course, even born-agains are still human, and we still sin … but we can repent & receive forgiveness.
Of course, even born-agains are still human, and we still sin … but we can repent & receive forgiveness.
His (God-3-in-One), plan is to develop His sinless nature in us so that we begin to live out the Holiness that He implanted in our resurrected human spirit when we gave our lives over to Him....

The above is a long list of sins in addition to the Ten Commandments & 7 Deadly Sins....
I kind of like Gods revised a short list of Love replacing them as they are all fulfilled in love. Anyone who believes that it is the Christian's duty to refine their old nature and to the degree that they are successful, their new nature ( new creation in Christ) will be advanced should read Charles Spurgeon’s sermon entitled “The Fainting Warrior”.
It describes the relationship between the old and the new far better than I could.
If you live in sin you cannot get into heaven.
God is holy, the Holy Spirit cannot abide in a sinner.
Probably only about 10% of Christians live the “Christian life” of following Jesus.
Preachers do not preach sin for fear of upsetting their 'brethren' which would hurt the ‘income’.
Guess what, few preachers get into heaven as God holds them accountable for the lost (Ezek 3 & 33).
If you do not hate sin then you are not saved!
A true Christian hates sin.
God hates sin.
Lukewarm Christians think sin is acceptable but in God’s eyes, it is not.
We need a repentant heart and a sorrowful mind of our sin lives before we will find the joy of the Lord.
There is a difference between living in sin and committing a sin.
The righteous man falls 7 times a day, according to the Bible.
What God looks at is if we repent after we have fallen.
He looks at our hearts, NOT our success rate.....
Unbelief’s attributes are the things mentioned elsewhere...

Unbelief’s attributes are the things mentioned elsewhere...
Unbelief comes out in the flesh things of the mind, Body, and soul.
The Pharisees thought they had no sin by keeping all the commandments.
But the “Sermon on the Mount” showed them higher principals than even the Commandments.
Jesus said just to hate someone you become a murderer.
As noted above. The Pharisee’s greatest sin=doubt was not recognizing their day and message.
As in Jesus day.
He said to Search the Scriptures for in them it reveals who He Was.
But they could not accept that.
That is the Unpardonable sin......
Having communion and eating a piece of hard bread and grape juice.
Is not what it is all about......
Communion is “eating and drinking” of the – Word of God and Spirit. = the “Word is our communion today”.
Jesus said to eat of His flesh = word and drink His Blood – the Spirit.
Life is in the Blood.
It's Spiritual.....
As it says in Corinthians: That’s why many get sick, and many die.
They do not believe the Word and live in the world and it is a reproach to Jesus Christ, to say the least.
” They do not make “the Mark of God” Because they have never known him. Matt. 7.
They do miss the mark of God and then take a religion and end up taking the “mark of the worldly beast within”. – “because of Unbelief”
By rejecting Gods truth will cause you to stray from the truth and will one day give you a “reprobate” mind and you will believe in a delusion.
You have to read the Bible yourself and study.
Please do not expect your Pastor to give you Eternal life.
God’s Holy Spirit will lead you into it.
.....If we read the Word with a sincere heart.
People have to die.
Cause 'in Adam' all die.
But 'My spirit man' will never die.
It will live on in Heaven, Eternally.....
The Point is that you can shorten your life span by disobedience to God and NOT be doing His will.
You cannot stay in (sin= doubt and unbelief) and read the Word and still stay in your doubt and unbelief.......
That is contrary to God way of Blessings.
The Christian believer has to take all their “infirmities” and lay them at the foot of the Cross.
Jesus will take care of you.
As long as you are really sincere about your walk with Christ.
And He said He knows about all your infirmities and is a present help in the time of Trouble....
The Law and Commandments are Spiritual in the Nature of the heart.
If people would really have the Spiritual Sabbath in them today.
They will be full of the “Mighty Power of the Holy Ghost” which is the “Comforter and Rest” that Jesus said we must have.
I have heard a testimony of men who said they did not have the Holy Spirit in them.
Then they are still living in doubt.
Like the 3 years, the disciples spent with walking with Jesus just to abandon Him in His passion.
But after the Holy Spirit came into them with Fire- they would have died for him which they did.
That “fire” will burn all sin and doubt out of you sooner or later it has to or it is not the true Holy Spirit.
Every man or woman in any day must receive the Holy Spirit.
It is a must for today as it was in Jesus day when the church first started.
Special note – Speaking in tongue’s, do not have to be manifested to be full of the Holy Ghost. It is “A” evidence but so is the other 8 gifts of the ONE SPIRIT...
Rom.13:9 : 'For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill,, thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandments, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.’
According to this verse then, sin is anything that is contrary to love, in our relationship with others.
As a man once said to a crowd: "I am a fool for Jesus Christ – but – whose fool are you...?"
Reading this list for the n-th time, make me just time & time again aware of how fragile & fallible/prone to sin as human beings we are, every day......
As Reborn Christians we DO know when we sin, -so to repent immediately before the sin gets bigger and to repent with a true repentance...is the answer, -while asking the Holy Spirit to Guide & Help & Protect us in our future endeavors....!
Shalom & Maranatha.......

As long as you are really sincere about your walk with Christ.
And He said He knows about all your infirmities and is a present help in the time of Trouble....
The Law and Commandments are Spiritual in the Nature of the heart.
If people would really have the Spiritual Sabbath in them today.
They will be full of the “Mighty Power of the Holy Ghost” which is the “Comforter and Rest” that Jesus said we must have.
I have heard a testimony of men who said they did not have the Holy Spirit in them.
Then they are still living in doubt.
Like the 3 years, the disciples spent with walking with Jesus just to abandon Him in His passion.
But after the Holy Spirit came into them with Fire- they would have died for him which they did.
That “fire” will burn all sin and doubt out of you sooner or later it has to or it is not the true Holy Spirit.
Every man or woman in any day must receive the Holy Spirit.
It is a must for today as it was in Jesus day when the church first started.
Special note – Speaking in tongue’s, do not have to be manifested to be full of the Holy Ghost. It is “A” evidence but so is the other 8 gifts of the ONE SPIRIT...
Rom.13:9 : 'For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill,, thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandments, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.’
According to this verse then, sin is anything that is contrary to love, in our relationship with others.
As a man once said to a crowd: "I am a fool for Jesus Christ – but – whose fool are you...?"
Reading this list for the n-th time, make me just time & time again aware of how fragile & fallible/prone to sin as human beings we are, every day......
As Reborn Christians we DO know when we sin, -so to repent immediately before the sin gets bigger and to repent with a true repentance...is the answer, -while asking the Holy Spirit to Guide & Help & Protect us in our future endeavors....!
