I for one would appreciate comments & questions from all participants.
I firmly believe that the "heart of God" may be known on this matter. Lance
Based on what I read in the Bible, I believe that once a person has committed him/her self to follow Christ, sin will no longer be the PATTERN of their life. If they are in Christ, they will hate sin as He does. If they are filled with the Holy Spirit, they will have the ability to never sin again. Still, hating sin and having the ability to live a perfect life does not guarantee a sinless life; as most of us can testify. That is why we need a Savior. If you hate sin and still screw up on occasion, you have an advocate to plead your case, and mercy and grace are available. If sin is the pattern of your life, to me that is an indication that you are not right with your creator and you are very likely bound for Hell.
