We are either legalistic Christians or lawless sinners.
Okay. If you can be sinless, good for you.
Christ died on the cross for everybody except Ringman.
Ringman saved himself.
Your reaction is typical of those who don't love the Lord enough to serve Him. So you don't believe 1 John?
First off, you just judged me. Sin #1.
Secondly, I believe the Apostle Paul when he said in Romans 7-21:25.
21 So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; 23 but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. 24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? 25 Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin.
