I really don't like it when preachers or teachers teach that Christians are still sinners. It's like, have you read the New Testament?
You are the will of God, His son or daughter.

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!!!! 🔥🔥🤝👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
This guy clearly never read past his shiny bookmark in his Bible. Saying Christians aren’t sinners anymore isn’t just bad theology, it’s straight-up heresy.
Paul literally calls himself the chief of sinners after becoming an apostle. John says if you claim to be without sin, you’re a liar and the truth isn’t in you (1 John 1:8). Romans 7 is Paul, already a Christian, groaning over his battle with sin.
The Reformers had a phrase for this: simul justus et peccator, at the same time righteous and sinner. We’re clothed in Christ’s righteousness, adopted as sons and daughters, yes. But until we’re glorified, we still sin every day and depend on grace every hour.
So no, you’re not just ‘the will of God, His son or daughter.’ You’re also a sinner who Christ bled for. Deny that, and you’re preaching a different gospel. And the New Testament has a word for that: anathema.
But still a sinner. It's clear as day through the whole new testament. Did you read the whole thing?
That sin exists is the big lie.
Why do you think that sin's existence is a big lie?
“There is a power for good in the universe and you can use it” is a better metaphysic than “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of good”. So I’m an apostate and a heretic, but I’m a happier apostate and heretic. 🤪
So, you read all 66 books of the Bible and "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God," was your main take away?
That's not my main take away.
Just take one honest look at your own life. Can you truly claim you're living a righteous and sin free life?
