YOU ARE A SINNER BECAUSE GOD SAID YOU ARE ! First thing Jesus Christ did die for your sins as scripture says so John3:16King James Bible For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Jesus cried to his father because Jesus set aside His position of equality in heaven to become a man on earth; and submitted Himself to God so that He could do the works of God while on earth; and then allow Himself to be crucified for the sin of the world. Philippians 2:6-11 says, Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth; And [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Jesus is God, and has now returned to His position at the right Hand of God. Even though the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are 3 separate beings, they all make up the Godhead; and all are God. Many do not understand this, because they try to use their natural mind to understand spiritual truth; and this cannot be done. 1 Corinthians 2:14 says this; But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned. This is why only Christians can understand this; and only Christians who use spiritual understanding instead of their natural understanding; because only Christians have the mind of Christ; as verse 16 of the same chapter says: For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. Romans 10:8-10 is how anyone can be born again , next thing about sin my friend you are a sinner weather u like it or not you are a sinner The Bible provides the answer as to why every person sins. Scripture says that God created humankind originally good and without a sin nature: Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness. . . . God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them” (Genesis 1:26-27). However, Genesis chapter 3 records the fall of Adam and Eve, and with that fall, sin entered into the two previously sinless creatures that God had made. And when they, in turn, had children, their sin nature was passed along to their offspring. That sin nature immediately manifested itself in the very first man born from Adam and Eve, a man named Cain who became a murderer (Genesis 4:8).Instead of only the image of God being passed down through the human procreation process, a sin nature was passed as well: “When Adam had lived one hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, according to his image, and named him Seth” (Genesis 5:3, emphasis added). The fact is that each and every person born from the beginning has inherited the sin nature of his parents, with both the Old and New Testaments speaking to this fact. For example, David says, Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me” (Psalm 51:5). In another Psalm, David states: “The wicked are estranged from the womb; these who speak lies go astray from birth” (Psalm 58:3). His son Solomon wrote: Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins” (Ecclesiastes 7:20).The Old Testament prophets also affirmed that a sin nature exists in everyone born of human parents. Jeremiah said, “The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; who can understand it?” (Jeremiah 17:9). The prophet Isaiah stated: For all of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment; And all of us wither like a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away” (Isaiah 64:6).In the New Testament, Paul affirms an inherited sin nature when he says, Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned” (Romans 5:12). And the Apostle John says this to his readers: If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us” (1 John 1:8). So what must sinners do????? Mark1:15
