“All who sin are slaves to sin” means: the fact that you commit a sin brings to light that you are obeying a master who rules over you. He is the master of sin, every sin you commit is the result of an order he gives. Because you are not free but are his property, you are forced to execute his command to sin. Sinning is not a choice of yours, but the execution of your masters will. The fact that we recognize in ourselves that sinning is not something we really want to do, is also evidence of a knowledge that we were formerly living and acting out differently. We were executing righteous and good acts on command . We have in truth been initially created to live an existence that only lives out good and righteous and pleasing acts. The only way to come out of this fallen state is, when our initial master steps in, pays for our release and thus owns us again. We were never intended to be our own masters. We

sin is sin 😛

@everyone :This is how I see sin, it's reactions, and what we must do:
"All wicked actions are sin, but not every sin leads to death. We know that God’s children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them. We know that we are children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one. And we know that the Son of God has come, and he has given us understanding so that we can know the true God. And now we live in fellowship with the true God because we live in fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the only true God, and he is eternal life. Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts.
1 John 5:17‭-‬21 NLT
"
Sin happens when we allow the evil one to take residency in our hearts over God. When we sin against one another, God gives us time to make it right (ex: FORGIVENESS). But sin that causes mortality to our bodies [with the indwelling Holy Spirit] are the greatest of sins that could cause death. Ex: Fornication = STIs and autoimmune diseases. Murder = the death penalty, revenge, etc.
Remember, Satan prowls this Earth constantly. He is trying to make this place his domain when it is God's. That is why it is a constant spiritual battle on this plain and we cannot let him win. We must sanctify ourselves with the Lord every second of the day.

Jesse. Can and may Christianity be mascular and if so can this be expressed to stop suppresion from other releigions or the politics?

@PastPresentFuture I didn't think my answer belonged in #<#467164315598979072> because it was answering a question. I firmly believe that when I answer the biblical question, I back it up with a verse.

BIBLICAL QUESTION OF THE WEEK (Sept 3-7):
*Why do women believe they do not sin?*

My answer (slightly long - reference Genesis 2-3):
This has happened in the beginning of time - starting with Eve.
Eve was made from the rib of man. Ribs are meant to protect the heart therefore she becomes it. Because she is more emotional than logical, Eve was more susceptible to sin. Satan puts more than just a lie in her head; the result of her sin makes her angry that God 'deceived' her about the 'fruit' and her wanting to be 'head' over her husband, Adam. Adam didn't correct her because she became a Child of the Lie and thus deceived Adam; he became weak and turned away from God. The spiritual order flipped around.

Women believe they can do no wrong because they were taught that from Satan. It is the same exact reason a woman fights to win an argument with a man with yelling and screaming. A weak man eventually gets exhausted and gives in, which flips the spiritual order of this.

"Happy wife, happy life."

Yes

GLORIOUS

💯

👏🏼

Nice Sasha

I think you’re onto something there

I think it’s the nature of the woman to be competitive and challenge what is above them. (When they’re in the fallen state)

@PastPresentFuture That's exactly what I thought. Woman came second so it is 'natural' to want to dominate over man. Think about it this way, too: Satan is second best and tried to take over God's place by the same ploys....

Hmmm 🤔
Makes me wonder if Satan is actually a salty female. 🤔 😆

This is why Jesse is correct when he says men represent Christ on earth

Satan is often depicted as a humanoid with a goat head and female breasts

That explains it! LoLz XD

When a woman returns to god, (the spiritual order) she is no longer of her father the devil.

That’s why women need a man to lead them to god.

But woman came from man which is of God. Woman came from the rib of man and thus lack logic which makes her susceptible of the devil's ways.

This was a really good question this week!

I agree with you, @PastPresentFuture

It was an amazing question

Satan was created by god

Just as woman was created by god

@JesseLee @Hake BIBLICAL QUESTION ANSWER!!! check it out

Please pardon my correction, @PastPresentFuture but the Bible does not explicitly tell us how Satan was made.

But then again, let me go back and research that.

I stand corrected: There is proof in the scriptures. My apologies, @PastPresentFuture

No worries👌

AMAAAAAAAZzzzzzzin!!!!
