Who is a sinner? Do we call someone a sinner because they do the obvious? Is a sinner lables by their works? How do you recognise a sinner? Can a sinner be recognised? Yes, Jesus said you see a tree by its fruits, but do we really understand what Jesus was talking about here? Brethren, a sinner is not recognised by works. We do not listen to someone speaking Xhosa, look at him wearing Xhosa cultural atire and doing mbaqanga and conclude that this guy is a Xhosa man, no. Because they will tell you, I learnd all this thru my friendship with Xhosa ppl, I lived among them for long time... And where will you shv your assumption? Some look at a person living a notorious life and they conclude, Even God cannot save that one, he is satan himself, he has taken the form. That is why the Jesus says dont judge brethren, because we judge that which we do not understand and conclude with the wrong results... The bible tells us that, ...by one mans disobedience, MANY WERE MADE SINNERS, Romans 5:19, This scripture tells us that, NO ONE DID ANYTHING TO BECOME A SINNER, WE WERE MADE SINNERS BY ONE MANS SIN, WHICH MEANS THAT WE INHERITED SIN. We were born sinners, just like a Xhosa gives birth to a Xhosa, a sinner gives birth to a.............. - A seed of sin was in Adam who started human race, so the intire human race needs redemption from death caused by sin. Look, whether I am bad or good, it does not change me from being a Xhosa man, I am a Xhosa guy period, and the Xhosa tribe will eithr be praised because of my good conduct among those arround me, or be criticized because of I am bad. So whether you are good or bad, if your soul has not been regenerated, you are still a sinner in need of redemption thru the blood of Jesus Christ, Colossians 1:13-14. There is nothing that God can do with the lineage of Adam, that generation needs to be regenerated, that is why one needs to be born again, not by a will of a man, but by a will of God, thru the Spirit of God, so you can be a new creature, old things must pass away and you become a new person in spirit and soul, God does nothing to the body but heals it with divine healing so it will carry the inner man and glorify God in service.... Brethren, Conelius was a good man, a devout man or pious who feard God did good in His sight, but God new that that will not save him, that is why He sent Peter, Acts 10.
