9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.
Notice the context of the "does not sin", (Born again) is... has been "born of God".
So, WHY is that the case for all who are born again?
Reader, where are you, once you are born again?
A.) In Christ.....One with God......Seated in Heavenly places...
Right?
Yet, there you are in front of a screen, typing.
What does that show you? = It shows you that a CHRISTIAN is the born again Spirit and not the body or the mind.
So, when you read verses that talk about "cannot sin" then that is referring to the "new Creation" 'In Christ".
That's your /Born again Spirit....... as that is the YOU that is the Son/Daughter of God.
And were does that REAL YOU exist?//
"seated in heavenly places"....."transferred from darkness TO LIGHT"..
Where is that?
A.) THE Kingdom of God......
And there is no sin found there, as there is no LAW found there, and you are there if you have been Born again, which places you there.
See that?
That is why you exist as this verse, ... "you are not under the LAW, but Under GRACE"..
"where there is no LAW.... (KOG) there is no Transgression."
"well behold, how can that be, when im looking at my body, down here".
That's your issue, and that is why you dont understand your SALVATiON Yet.... Reader.
And when you do understand who you have become as a 'New Creation in /Christ", then you have "worked out your Salvation".
