“We are all sinners”, it may sound so pious and humble, Pero en la realidad, it’s an insult to God and the redemptive work and precious blood of Jesus Christ and belongs to the many false doctrines that are preached. This false doctrine keeps people in bondage of sin and death and prevents them from living in freedom after the Spirit. Because this false doctrine doesn’t call the people to repentance and the removal of sin, but allows the people to persevere in sin and to tolerate and support the sins of others. Because of this teaching, people don’t have to change but can stay the way they are. And so the devil has seduced many Christians and keeps them in bondage through his lie and caused Christians to live in disobedience to God and His will. But what does the Bible say about the sinner and the saint? When are you a sinner and when are you a saint?
Everyone is born as a sinner
Como está escrito, No hay justos, No, Ni uno solo: No hay nadie que entienda, no hay quien busque a Dios. Todos se han quitado del camino, juntos se vuelven incomestibles; no hay nadie que haga el bien, No, Ni uno solo (romanos 3:10)
Por lo tanto,, como por un solo hombre entró el pecado en el mundo, y la muerte por el pecado; y así la muerte pasó a todos los hombres, por eso todos han pecado. Porque hasta la ley el pecado estaba en el mundo (romanos 5:12-13)
The devil always uses half-truths instead of the whole truth. This should not be surprising, because the devil is a liar and the father of liars. Él no dice la verdad, but he always leaves a part of the whole truth away, so that people become desobediente a Dios y su voluntad.
This is also the case with the teaching that man always remains a sinner. It’s correct that everyone, who is born on this earth in the flesh is a sinner. No one is born righteous. Everyone is born in unrighteousness (salmos 51:5). That’s because of the fall of man, whereby the spirit of man died and came under the authority of the death, and man fell from his position and became a son of the devil. Desde ese momento, evil was present in the seed of man. Todos, que nacería de la simiente de Adán (hombre) would be born as a sinner (Leer también: ‘La batalla en el jardín')).
Man was trapped in the flesh, wherein sin and death reign and lived from the sinful nature of the flesh. Al dar la ley, God made His will known to the carnal man and the sacrificial laws were given to (temporalmente) purify God’s people from their sins and iniquities.
Until the promise of God, Jesucristo, el Hijo de Dios y la Palabra Viva, came to the earth and fulfilled the redemptive work for (caído) hombre, and redeemed man from his state as a sinner. This last part is always left out by the devil.
Jesucristo, el hijo de Dios, was born of the Seed of God
Jesus was not born of the seed of man but was born of the Seed of God. Therefore Jesus Christ was holy and righteous and not a sinner and unrighteous, just like Adam and Eve were holy and righteous before the fall of man.
Jesus became equal to man and was totalmente humano, therefore Jesus had the ability to sin and to leave the will of God through disobedience to God.
Because if this wouldn’t be possible, the devil would not have tried to tempt Jesus to sin, just like the devil tempted Adam and Eve to sin.
And so the devil approached Jesus and tried to tempt Jesus to sin by using the words of God for the lusts and desires of His flesh (Leer también: Te daré las riquezas del mundo.')
But Jesus knew the nature and will of God and He also was familiar with the nature and the will of the devil and therefore Jesus refuted the partial truth of the devil with the whole truth of God.
And so Jesus overcame the temptations of the devil in the flesh with the words of God.
This didn’t happen once in the wilderness, but this happened during His whole life on earth.
The devil continuously tried to tempt Jesus to sin directly and through the people around Him and caused Him to bow to him. But because Jesus walked in obedience to the Father in His will after the Spirit, Jesus discerned the hearts of the people and the temptations of the devil, and so the mission of the devil failed.
“Get thee behind me, Satán: thou art an offence unto Me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men”
The devil even used the disciple Peter to tempt Jesus to sin and leave the will of God through disobedience and avoid the camino de la cruz.
The words of Peter sounded so loving, sincere, and compassionate, and may seem they came from God, but Jesus knew the will of the Father and recognized the words that derived from the feelings and emotions of the flesh. Therefore Jesus said to Peter: “Get thee behind Me, Satán: thou art an offence unto Me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men”
At that moment Peter was an adversary of God and didn’t speak according to a revelation of the Father, but Peter spoke from a carnal mind, since Peter tried to hinder the great work of redemption of mankind in history (Mateo 16:21-23).
Despite all the temptations of the devil through the spiritual leaders of God’s people and even His own disciples, Jesus stayed yielded to the Father and remained obedient to the will of the Father and the Holy Spirit and freely laid down His own life
He sent His Word and healed them
Porque Él lo ha hecho pecado por nosotros, que no conoció el pecado; para que seamos hechos justicia de Dios en Él (2 corintios 5:21)
And so Jesus was wounded, bruised, and made sick (put Him to grief), because the Father laid the sins and iniquities of man and the punishment of sin, que es la muerte, upon Jesus Christ.
And so Jesus Christ was made sin and became the Substitute for fallen man; the sinner and through His blood, muerte, y resurrección, He would redeem many, who lived as sinners in the kingdom of darkness and were prisoners of death, and take them to heaven and by faith and regeneration in Him would give a place in the Heavenlies on His throne and become co-heirs with Him (salmos 107:20, Isaías 45:12–13; 53, Zacarías 10:9-13, Efesios 4:7-11, colosenses 3:1)
Through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ and His blood everything is finished. Jesus restored what was broken and made man whole (curado) and reconciled man with God.
Through the blood of Christ, the position of fallen man is restored and man doesn’t belong to the generation of fallen man (anciano); El pecador, but belongs to the generation of the new man; the saint.
There is no condemnation in Christ
Por tanto, ahora ninguna condenación hay para los que están en Cristo Jesús., que no andan según la carne, pero según el Espíritu. Porque la ley del Espíritu de vida en Cristo Jesús me ha librado de la ley del pecado y de la muerte.. Por lo que la ley no pudo hacer, en que era débil por la carne, Dios enviando a Su propio Hijo en semejanza de carne pecaminosa, y por el pecado, pecado condenado en la carne: Para que la justicia de la ley se cumpla en nosotros, que no andan según la carne, pero según el Espíritu.
Porque los que son según la carne se preocupan por las cosas de la carne.; pero los que son conforme al Espíritu, las cosas del Espíritu. Porque el ocuparse de la carne es muerte; pero tener una mentalidad espiritual es vida y paz..
Porque la mente carnal es enemistad contra Dios.: porque no está sujeto a la ley de Dios, tampoco puede serlo. Entonces los que están en la carne no pueden agradar a Dios..
Pero vosotros no estáis en la carne, sino en el Espíritu, si es que el Espíritu de Dios habita en vosotros. Y si alguno no tiene el Espíritu de Cristo, él no es ninguno de los Suyos.
Y si Cristo esté en vosotros, El cuerpo está muerto a causa del pecado; pero el Espíritu es vida a causa de la justicia.
Pero si el Espíritu de aquel que levantó de los muertos a Jesús habita en vosotros, El que levantó a Cristo de entre los muertos vivificará también vuestros cuerpos mortales por su Espíritu que mora en vosotros.. (romanos 8:1-11.
Through faith and regeneration, man has laid down his flesh, en el que habita la naturaleza pecaminosa, en Cristo.
By the death of the flesh, man has been redeemed from the Ley del pecado y de la muerte, which reigns in the flesh and man doesn’t live under the law, but under the grace of God (Leer también: '¿Qué es la gracia??', 'Perdido en el mar de gracia', ‘The difference between the law and grace')
Man has become a new creation; un hijo de dios, un santo, through the identification with Christ and regeneration; the death of the flesh and the resurrection of the spirit from the dead in Christ and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit
Can the Holy Spirit abide in a sinner?
hay muchos creyentes, who say they are salvado and born again and have the Holy Spirit, while they keep saying that they are sinners. Pero eso es imposible! If you are a sinner, you don’t live in the will of God, but outside the will of God.
You are either a sinner and belongs through your flesh to the devil and the kingdom of darkness (El Reino de la Tierra) or you have become a saint through regeneration and belongs through your spirit to Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God (Reino de los Cielos (Oh. romanos 8, Efesios 1:3-14, colosenses 1:12-14, 1 John 3:1-10)).
The Holy Spirit can’t abide in an unclean person; pecadora. Por lo tanto, if someone says that he or she is a sinner, then the person is not born again and is not redeemed from the power of sin and death and therefore the person is not saved. The person still lives in the kingdom of darkness and is blinded in his or her carnal mind and is still a prisoner of sin and death and walks after the flesh in disobedience to God and His will.
What is a sinner?
A sinner is a son of the devil and has the nature of the devil and lives in darkness without God (impío) and is prideful, rebelde, and disobedient and refuses to submit to God and the law of the Kingdom of God that represents the will of God.
Therefore a sinner, who has a carnal mind can’t please God, because the sinner is not willing to submit to the law of God (romanos 8:6-8)
A sinner lives outside the will of God and is not saved. Therefore if you say, that you are a sinner and keep doing those things, que van en contra de la voluntad de Dios, you are not redeemed from the death, and sin and death still reign in your flesh. Ya que el fruto de la muerte es el pecado..
If you can’t say that you are righteous and have become a saint, which means that through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ and by His blood you have been made righteous and have been separated from the world unto God, then you don’t have the Holy Spirit and don’t belong to Him.
Why do they preach that you always remain a sinner?
The problem is that many preachers who preach from the pulpit are carnal (natural man) and refuse to lay down their flesh. Therefore they adjust the words of God in such a subtle manner, so that it may seem that the pious doctrine, that they always remain sinners, is coming from God and make them look humble, Pero en la realidad, it’s Falsa humildad and a prideful doctrine that leads to rebellion against God and disobedience to the will of God. And so they use this doctrine as an excuse, so that they can stay the way they are and keep living in lasciviousness after the flesh and persevere in sin.
And because believers don’t read and study the Word of God by themselves, but believe the words of preachers, the believers have become indifferent towards sin and have accepted sin, due to the fact that they think they are sinners and that they will always remain sinners.
Debido a esta mentalidad, they will not repent and remove the sins from their lives and walk after the will of God, but they keep walking after the flesh and persevere in sin.
Because how can you walk holy and righteous as a son of God if you believe that you are a sinner?
They also preach this doctrine to new visitors of the church. They are being told that it doesn’t matter how you live and that you don’t have to change, because God loves you just the way you are.
And so they live by faith in the humanistic love of the world in enmity with God as workers of iniquity. And although they believe they are saved through their humanistic way of life and works, they are not saved. Porque la Palabra dice, that the ungodly; pecadores, are not saved but for them is the blackness of darkness forever reserved (Judas).
Although preachers say that you always remain a sinner and that it doesn’t matter how you live, God says something else in His Word, namely that it does matter how you live.
Dios ama a las personas, but God doesn’t love the sin of people and therefore God gave His Son to redeem man from the power of sin and death and to justify man and reconcile man with Him, por la fe y la regeneración en Cristo.
¿Sigues siendo un pecador??
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us(1 John 1:8-10)
As long as a person doesn’t repent and become born again by faith in Jesus Christ and the conviction of sin, the person remains a sinner and lives separated from God.
Cada persona, who is born on earth is born in sin and iniquity and is a sinner. Nadie está excluido. Not even when you are born of the seed of Israel or have been raised in a Christian home.
No one has been made righteous because of that. A person can only be made righteous by the blood of Jesus Christ and regeneration in Him. There is no other Way to God and eternal life than through Jesus Christ.
It doesn’t matter what people say, the Word is very clear about this matter. And eventually, the Word decides where you will spend eternity.
God is light and in Him is no darkness
This then is the message which we have heard of Him, and declare unto you, que Dios es luz, y en Él no hay oscuridad alguna,. Si decimos que tenemos comunión con Él, y caminar en la oscuridad, nosotros mentimos, y no la verdad: Pero si caminamos en la luz, como Él está en la luz, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin (1 John 1:5-7)
¿Qué diremos entonces? ¿Continuaremos en el pecado?, para que abunde la gracia? Dios no lo quiera. ¿Cómo vamos a, que están muertos al pecado, vivir más tiempo en ella? ¿No sabéis, que todos los que fuimos bautizados en Jesucristo fuimos bautizados en su muerte? Por lo tanto somos sepultados juntamente con Él por el bautismo para muerte.: que así como Cristo resucitó de entre los muertos por la gloria del Padre, Así también nosotros debemos caminar en novedad de vida..
Porque si hemos sido plantados juntos a semejanza de su muerte, nosotros también seremos en la semejanza de su resurrección: sabiendo esto, que nuestro viejo hombre está crucificado con él, para que el cuerpo del pecado sea destruido, que de ahora en adelante no sirvamos al pecado. Porque el que está muerto queda libre del pecado. (romanos 6:1-7)
If you are convicted of your sins and repent and become born again in Christ, then from that moment you have been made righteous and no longer belong to the devil and the world, but you belong to God and the Kingdom of Heaven.
Ya no eres un pecador, who is blinded in his mind and lives in the lie in darkness in bondage to sin and death, but through the power of the blood of Christ and the death of the flesh and resurrection of the spirit, you have been made righteous and have become a saint, who is enlightened in his mind and lives in the truth in the Light in the freedom of the Spirit and the Life and reigns over sin and death.
¿Qué pasó en el ámbito espiritual?, namely the justification of man and the reconciliation between man and God, shall become visible in the natural realm, through the immediate change in the life of the person and by posponiendo al viejo y poniéndose el hombre nuevo.
El proceso de santificación
My little children, these things write I unto you, que no pequéis. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And hereby we do know that we know Him, si guardamos Sus mandamientos. El que dice, Yo lo conozco, and keeps not His commandments, es un mentiroso, y la verdad no está en él. Pero el que guarda su palabra, en él, verdaderamente, se perfecciona el amor de Dios: en que sabemos que estamos en Él. He that saith he abides in Him ought himself also so to walk, así como Él caminaba (1 John 2:1-6).
Pero ahora, siendo liberados del pecado, y se convierten en siervos de Dios, Tenéis vuestro fruto para santidad, y el fin de la vida eterna. Porque la paga del pecado es muerte; pero el don de Dios es vida eterna por medio de Jesucristo nuestro Señor (romanos 6:22-23)
During the process of sanctification and spiritual maturity, when you grow up into the image of Christ and walk as He walked, you can (unconsciously) make a mistake. But the Holy Spirit shall immediately confront you and correct you, whereby you have the ability to ask forgiveness and repent
This doesn’t mean that you consciously keep making mistakes and use the grace of God and the blood of Jesus Christ as a permit for the flesh to live a lascivious life and give yourself to idolatry and (sexual) uncleanness and the lusts of the flesh.
Because if you want to live a lascivious life and love the things you do and want to persevere in sin and don’t want to yield to Jesus Christ; the Word and keep His commandments, then you are not born again in Christ and don’t have the Spirit of God dwelling in you and don’t walk in the love of God, but you have the spirit of the world and walk in the love of man and the world (Oh. romanos 6:1-7, 1 John 3:6-10).
A sinner or a saint
Porque así como por la desobediencia de un hombre, muchos fueron hechos pecadores, así por la obediencia de Uno muchos serán hechos justos (romanos 5:19)
You are born as a sinner and if you are not born again in Christ, you are still a sinner and live separated from God and belongs to the world, and sin and death still reign in your life.
But if you are born again in Christ and the Holy Spirit dwells in you, then you are no longer a sinner, but you have been made righteous in Jesus Christ through His blood and have become the righteousness of God; un santo, who is devoted to God.
¿Sigues siendo un pecador?? If you say that you are a sinner, Un hijo del diablo, who has the nature of the devil and live outside the will of God and don’t belong to Him, then it’s time to repent, so that you will be made righteous by the blood of Jesus Christ and become a new creation through regeneration and be reconciled with God and receive Gods nature and walk as a son of God after the Spirit in His will and inherit eternal life
Because a sinner is not saved and as long as the mindset in the church will be that man is a sinner and will always remain a sinner, people shall live as sinners and walk after the flesh and persevere in sin and live in rebellion against God.
