So , if any human is capable of living a sinless life , what do we need Christ for ? What did he accomplish ? If there is any sinless person , could they have offered themselves as a sacrifice that would have done the same thing that Christ's sacrifice did ? Doesn't believing that any human can live a sinless life , diminish massively that which Christ accomplished ? As everything that passes through our hearts and minds , is as obvious and clear to God , as everything that we say and do is as obvious and clear to everyone around us , do we really believe that any human can lead a sinless life ? We are all totally open books to God , do any of us really believe that we always have pure hearts and minds ? I believe I can live sinless for about.....five seconds maybe . Do we all agree on what sin is ? Maybe we all have different ideas about what sin is . Numbers chapter 15 verse 22-31,Jeremiah chapter 17 verse 9 .
The Bible makes it clear that all sin and it says those who claim they don't sin are lying. I think this gets confused with God wiping away and "not remembering" sin if (and only if) we're a genuine Christ follower.
Some believe that a force from God forces you to be sinless as a Christian and that you can just kick back and backslide because you're basically on spiritual autopilot. I believe the Bible debunks this. Even Paul, who was probably the best evangelist for Christianity in world history, admitted that he deeply struggled with sin and said he naturally doesn't want to do what is good, he's in a spiritual war with himself and his own flesh. This means that even for him there wasn't this autopilot force making him be sinless, he worked at it very, very hard, and he struggled and had enormous trials and obstacles and persecution. Some assume God is a genie in a bottle existing to serve and make you comfortable, but its closer to the opposite. God bless.
