The next verse as well,
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we are cleansed from all unrighteousness, how much sin do we have?
1 John 1:8 is not an excuse to remain in sin, or to identify yourself as a sinner.
Galatians 5:17 KJV For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Bro, until you get rid your flesh and receive your eternal glorified body, you are at war, whether you want to hear it or not.
You only lie to yourself.
Matthew 26:41 KJV Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Still not an excuse Andy.
Stop making excuses, you are called to Righteousness.
Peace my brother.
Galatians 5:17 is not an excuse to walk in the flesh.
You lie to yourself when you make excuse for sin, when you identify yourself as a sinner. You are not a sinner Andy. It is very common for Christians to identify as sinners and make excuse for sin, that is not the intent of even one verse of the Bible. We are called to perfection.
Galatians 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Galatians 5:17 is not and excuse to remain in sin, or in the flesh.
I am a sinner in need of God's redemption.
Sin has a grip on you and you can't get rid of it?
Romans 8 is a good study for you. The whole chaper, I'll highlight a few points.
Romans 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
In the flesh you can not please God.
Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.
That is who you are, you are not a sinner.
Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
You absolutely can do whae 8:13 says you can do.
Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
That is who you are Andy.
Romans 7 : 14 - 25
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. 16 If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. 17 But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. 19 For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. 20 Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.
21 I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. 22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
Oh don't stop there and make excuse for sin.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
No verse in the Bible makes excuse for sin.
1 John 1:8 is not an excuse to remain in sin.
1 John 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1 John 2:1 is not an excuse to remain in sin, it is how we deal with sin that creeps into our lives.
You're in conflict with yourself now.
I would be in conflict with myself, if I was following myself. I follow the truth.
1 John 2:21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
So you been made a saint already?
