MissileMan said:I'm not attacking your character, but your reasoning. If you are doing something even though you know it is a sin, you ARE sinning intentionally. That's not taking shit out of context, or wordsmithing, that's fact.
At the time you are committing this intentional sin, it must be acceptable to you, or you wouldn't be doing it. Feeling sorry and asking forgiveness later or even planning to feel sorry and ask for forgiveness later while you are sinning doesn't mitigate anything IMO.
But, if repentance is this great magic button, can homosexuals be Christians as long as they are sorry about being homosexual? Is there a limit on the frequency of the sin/repent cycle?
Repentance is more than confession of sin. You can tell when a man has repented of his sin because he will confess it and forsake it.
