Not sure why you are talking about the sin of omission. Christ obviously believed that personal sin was a part the (ontological ??) equation. We see it's implicite reference in the words "and if ye being evil know how to do good .." and again " ..he who is without sin .." and again " .. there is none who are good ..." His sermon recorded in Matt 5-7 gives us additional "legal requirement" that most surely finds us all standing "in error." As a matter of fact, one of the above quotes comes from that sermon.
I was just making a point that Judy was not prepared to accept - a point from scripture, by the way.

cd: As stated before -there were people under the Old Covenant who had no sin upon them (Luke 1: 5,6).If they could be sinless under the Old Covenant why can we under the New Covenant? He ones who brought the adulteress women into the Temple were sinning by bringing her into the temple in the first place.And Christ knew this and their hearts. As we have the law of God written on our hearts,and the Holy Spirit living within us it is possible to be sinless. Sin is a transgression of the known law and God also looks at the intent of the heart unto accountability. Every young true convert is without sin for a time as they were pardoned (justified) for all their past sins . We can be sinless-but one must walk in holiness to obtain this John. &nb

mental gymnastics will get you nowhere, Judy. The fact is, THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A THOUSAND PEOPLE standing there. Some of them wanted to stone the woman -- but others, I am sure , were not going to participate. But none of that makes any difference. Jesus knows that they are all sinners and in possession of sin -- so He can make a general challenge, such as He did, knowing that the challenge will not be rebutted -- except, of course, 2000 years later by Judy Taylor.

cd: There is a difference in pointing out error and stoning someone to death.We can call sin ,sin and are told to do so in the bible. Abstaining from original sin keeps one from being a hypocrite as you are trying to make Judy appear. Adding sin of omission in this manner is clouding the true message of the Gospel-If we are living in the 11 commandments given to us then there is no sin of omission for to have love of the brethren we will be helping them-by correction their error(s) ,and giving to them for their needs-then there is on sin of omission.If not- feel free to point out those other sins of omission?
