You've already said, Mikey, that if someone goes to church on the wrong day then you believe they'll go to Sheol.

That' the real problem... people have a list of sins in their head that they imagine to be important, and they ignore the other 595 sins. But someone else thinks other sins are important, and ignore the ones you hold so dear.

In the end, Jesus said that all that matters is that you love God and love your neighbor. All the rest of it is filler.

Do you even acknowledge what sin is??? If so explain..

If you don't regret sinning against God Why repent if you going to keep on sinning? You Christians act like Jesus can't Save.

Rejecting Jesus will be your biggest sin Anti. The payment for that sin is devastating.

There are over 600 sins in the Bible, many of which contradict one another. Charging or paying interest is a sin. Eating bacon or shrimp is a sin. Touching anything made of leather is a sin. Wearing blended materials is a sin.

Not taking grain to church 50 days after the seventh Sabbath is a sin.

Eating or working on July 10 is a sin.

Worse, there are sins that you can commit that will keep your great great great great great great great great grandchild from going to Heaven. Like being in the wrong denomination.

They're right, it's impossible...

Forky, I think the answer to your original question "So what's exactly is the difference????" depends on the intent behind the phrase "We can't help but Sin Everyday!!!!"

If the speaker means that it is their intent and desire to commit a sin every day I would agree that there is no difference between the so-called "Christian" and a sinner. However, if the speaker means that through human frailty he or she commits and act (though thought, word or deed) that might be sinful I think that I can tell you "what's exactly is the difference."

Let us bring to mind the second disciple that Jesus called-ole brother Peter. Peter, if you'll remember, was that same disciple who was directed to be the rock of the Church and what was granted the "Key's to Heaven" and told that whatever he allowed on Earth would be allowed in Heaven and whatever he (Peter) forbade on Earth would be forbidden in Heaven (Matthew 16:18-19) Anyhow, the night Jesus was taken prisoner Peter was making his brags that he'd never turn away from Jesus. Jesus said something like "Oh yes you will, Peter. Before the night is over (or the ****crows a time or two, or something similar, I'm going from memory here, so don't quote me exact but you can read about in either Matthew 26, Mark 14, John 13 or Luke 22) you'll deny that you ever knowed me. Well, sure as shooting, after Jesus was taken prisoner folks started pointing at Peter and telling that he was one of Jesus's crowd and Peter denied it. Right out in the plain fibbed and fibbed even knowing that Jesus had said that He'd not take up for anybody who denied Him (Matthew 10:33.)

That there is an awful story in and of itself, but it ain't the end. Nope, later, a while after Jesus had been crucified and rose from the dead early one wonderful Sunday morning (Mark 16:9) Jesus made breakfast for some of His disciples as they was out fishing, Peter amongst 'em. The story goes that after breakfast Jesus looked at Peter and asked him a couple or three times if Peter loved Jesus. Each time Peter allowed how he did and in the end Jesus told Peter to "Feed His Sheep." (John 21)
Now, if Peter can muck up and fib (a sin) and deny knowing Jesus (a sin) I don't think it's too far of a stretch to say that the rest of us can muck up from time to time and maybe commit a sin. Jesus forgave Peter and I reckon He does the same for ever body who asks him.

Forky, I know that you've copied and pasted and pasted and copied John 8:34 time and time again, but I think you are reading it wrong. Almost like you are mishearing what folks are saying when they say that sin every day. I think Jesus was saying those mistakes, the unintentional lie, the momentary lust, the anger, the flare of hatred aren't sins unless you are still a slave to sin. Because, just two verses later, Jesus said that if the Son sets you free you are free indeed (8:36.) I figure that means you ain't a slave to sin no more.
Peter mucked up and Jesus didn't take away His promise.

Jesus is the Fulfillment and made a New Covenant with THE WORLD.

WILL YOU ACCEPT JESUS..

33-34 "This is the brand-new covenant that I will make with Israel when the time comes. I will put my law within them-write it on their hearts!-and be their God. And they will be my people. They will no longer go around setting up schools to teach each other about God. They'll know me firsthand, the dull and the bright, the smart and the slow. I'll wipe the slate clean for each of them. I'll forget they ever sinned!" God's Decree.

Go ahead and stone her because that is what the Law requires. But the Law also requires that the first stone be thrown by a person who is sinless in connection with this charge" (John 8:6-7).

So, I guess since you are sinless you can cast the first stone
&&&:&&

Jesus knew the laws of MOSES and what they required to prosecute. She was caught in the very act. Ok. Where is the Man?

I put My complete Trust in Jesus and what he taught. Jesus Saves and keeps a person Saved if you put him in your Heart.

HOW CAN YOU REPENT FOR SINNING AND KEEP SINNING? YOU MOCK JESUS ABILITY TO SAVE!!! JESUS BROUGHT SALVATION TO THE WORLD IF YOU ACCEPT IT.

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries." (Heb 10:26-27 KJV)

A Christian hollars out. We can't help but Sin Everyday!!!
A Sinner declares he can't help but Sin Everyday.
