I can't say that I agree, but then again, I can't understand what you are saying, so who knows. You are the only one who speaks of sinlessness in Christ. I have never spoken of it except to tell you many times that I do not believe in any doctrine of sinlessness in Christ. I have stated numerous times that the sin principle within our bodies will exist there until our bodies are transformed in the resurrection.
So is pride, selfishness, conceit, bigotry and the like sin or not???? I bet you say "no" in some form.
"Sin" is given several differing but not opposing definitions. You seem to recognize only one.

Good. I believe all of our own works are worthless and vain. Ouch !!! Could you mail me some of your supply of prozac??? God deserves all the credit for any good we think, say, or do. We are his workmanship, created for good works. Any effort we exert should be to glorify God. Amen? I hesitate to answer since all my words are worthless and vain but, heck, I'll give it a
whirl .................................ah, YES !! Would it be worthless and vain for me to ask
that you add to your list of what we think, what we say and what we do that business of God saving
us apart from what we think and say and do (Ro 4:3)? Maybe throw in a "thank you Lord" for the solo complii that is Christ's victory in and for us?? What say ye? Peace be with you.
