    In Christianity or in any religion.

    You can basically do anything as you please as long you have that deity in your heart.

    youre thinking of Godly in a literal sense. I mean as someone who puts ? in their life above all things. the answer to this thread was no.

    sure, let's just plan to sin, and plan to ask for forgiveness......
    then plan to sin again....and plan to ask for forgiveness again....
    and when i see some better temptation i'm just gon plan to sin again....

    it's not ok to accept yourself as you are, but only if you make yourself feel better about it.
    suuuuuuuure.

    lol..you shouldnt "plan" to do anything...evidently things should get old and you should resist temptation to fornicate or least try and work on it until you get close to wanting to do it anymore..

    ngas think the answer is to sin..ask for forgiveness and welp let me go and do it again and think it's all good and dandy lol..nah..you got show growth that you're working trying to be godly..

    youre right. you can be righteous and commit a sin. im referring to those who fornicate on a regular basis while pretending to obey ? .

    Nobody can put ? above all things at all times with all actions. Its impossible. If it were possible, then sin wouldn't exist they way that it does today. What would be the point of salvation and redeption if people didn't have anything to be saved from?

    well devoting yourself to ? is a constant effort that does involve committing sins and being forgiven for them, but you cant be a preacher or someone who constantly talks about being empowered by ? , and talk about and take pride in sexual escapades the next breath.

    its absolutely a sin to commit sin and then take pride in that sin. i don't think anyone would argue that.

    lol no it can't. Its not possible at all. doing so would be doing exactly as ? commanded and exactly as Jesus acted. nobody is capable of absolute perfection. I'm sure you are aware of the "for all have sinned but fallen short of the glory of ? ...." verse. Everyone has sinned. and Everyone will sin.

    100% awareness is impossible for sure at this point, and true if it were possible sin wouldn't exist for us like it does for ? and supposedly did for jesus. We are born into a world of ignorance, we are saved from our ignorance. Through ignorance man makes mistakes, we learn through trial and error. Sins are not punished, but corrected, only in an unsane world would errors be punished rather than corrected.

    Everyone sins but there is a difference between sinning and practicing sin. You cannot PRACTICE sin and be Godly. Anyone that does so is just fakin'.
