Go and Sin No More - Jesse Exhorts Texas A&M in Commerce

[TheGenuineChristian]

You got guts. Preach it to them sinners.

[droptozro]

@chrisctlr 1 John 3:9 Whoever is born of God does not sin. He cannot sin because His seed remains in him. I suggest you learn about the Gnostics before proof texting. They taught sinlessness in the sense that they thought themselves unable to sin. We don't preach that, we preach as 1 John says... You're able to live sinless as Christ so do so, but that doesn't mean you are not able to sin.

[RobertMOdell]

@droptozro Are you saying that verse 3:9 is an untruth? Or, how do you deal with what it says?

[droptozro]

@RobertMOdell

We teach it as truth, the point of this book is partly to refute the Gnostics(anti-Christs). They taught Jesus didn't come in the flesh(1 John 4:3)... I suggest you take the time to ask "why?" the Gnostics taught this and learn about it, either from their own writings or from the early church is a great reference.

Christians do not continue in sin, that's what it means. 1 John 1:8,10 are proof-texted from the misunderstanding of what Gnostics taught... that's all.

[RobertMOdell]

@droptozro That is how the verses of 1 John seem to harmonize upon a plain english reading: that sin is possible but not expected and will not continue in someone who knows and loves Christ. I'll have to study the greek from 3:9 in more detail. There is a LOT of error on YT concerning 1 John it seems. Thanks also for the insight about refuting the gnostic teachings. I'll look into that also.

[chrisctlr]

1 John 1:8

If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

[OpenAirOutreach]

@chrisctlr 1 John 1:9 is a blessed promise, because it promises not only forgiveness of sin but also cleansing from ALL sin. There is no sin that the power of God's grace cannot set us free from. There is no sin that Jesus cannot save us from. We can live free from all sin - glory to God.

Jesse is a Pelagian, which is HERESY. This guy is condemned by both Catholic and Protestants. May God bless you Jesse and save you from your heresy.

[shiphrahhopeful]

@Fernie66 You must be a Calvinist, which is HERESY. Being condemned by hell-bound Catholics and apostate Protestants, who teach original sin heresy, just proves he's doing something right! Humans are sinners by choice. Sinners are not victims, they are criminals who need repentance, pardon, and the atonement of Jesus Christ.

[Fernie66]

@shiphrahhopeful The Early Church Fathers condemned Pelagianism. You are no Christian. You follow only yourself, and so does Jesse Morrell. You've become your own source of truth, choosing what you want to believe, making up your own doctrines, claiming it to be biblical. You have no support from the Church, except from false teachers you have gathered to yourself. Some gather prosperity preachers, you gather heretics like Jesse. God bless you.

[shiphrahhopeful]

@Fernie66 Lol! So you're saying that trying to pursue righteousness will send you straight to Hell! But if you were a good calvinist and cuss, smoke, and drank, you would def have a reserved place in Heaven! lol! So if I disagree with Augustine's doctrine of original sin, and I believe that a Christian is responsible to live right in order to obtain salvation, then I am a Pelaginist? I'm def a Pelaginist!

Faith alone will save no one, for faith without works is dead. Preach it Jesse!

[droptozro]

@Fernie66

"The Early Church Fathers condemned Pelagianism".... They did??? That's kind of impossible, since the known early church is considered ante-Nicene how could the first 300 years of the church condemn a guy who showed up after them? And besides that, you're quite incorrect---the early church aligned more with Pelagius than Augustine. Augustine being a former Manichaean Gnostic of 9 years had his mind perverted a bit by them... sorry to say gnosticism crept into the church thru him.

[OpenAirOutreach]

@Fernie66 I always find it amazing when the “Reformed” “Sola Scriptura” crowd will point to Catholic Councils about Pelagius. There were two counsels that condemned Pelagianism; the Council of Ephesus in 431 and the Council of Carthage in 412. But the Council of Diospolis in 415 declared Pelagius orthodox and Pope Zosimus in 417 did as well. That is two for two. Do the two in favor cancel out the two against?

[OpenAirOutreach]

@Fernie66 But, if heresy is heresy because a counsel says so, then Calvinism is double the heresy that Pelagianism was because there were four counseled that condemned it! The Calvinist doctrines of predestination, limited atonement, and irresistible grace were condemned throughout history. Lucidus was condemned by the Council of Oral in 473, Council of Arles in 475, and Council of Orange in 529. And Gottschalk was by the Council at Mentz in 848, Council of Chiersey in 849

[OpenAirOutreach]

@Fernie66 And what do Calvinists think of the Council of Constance in 1414 for John Huss, or the Council of Worms in 1521 for Martin Luther, or the Council of Trent in 1561 for the Protestants? Are these Councils not the voice of Orthodoxy as Ephesus and Carthage supposedly were?

[OpenAirOutreach]

@Fernie66 And last but not least, the Synod of Philadelphia declared Albert Barnes as orthodox in 1829, after he presented his case for rejecting limited atonement, natural inability, the imputation of Adam’s sin and guilt to all his posterity

[RobertMOdell]

@OpenAirOutreach Wow Jesse. I am kind of interested in reading a little bit about the councils and synods you have cited here to learn a little more about this history. Can you point me to a good place of reference to get just a summary reading on these? Jesus bless you.
