Sinful housework

I would never "round up" my garden, because that kills all things, both good and bad. There are better ways to kill weeds than round up. But... you are entitled to your own opinion, and your own garden... so I'll leave you to tend yours, while I tend mine



Great scriptures. I believe we are freed from the taskmaster of sin, but yet, that nature is not completely dead yet. I've not ever met a perfect man without sin, but Jesus is the only perfect man to have ever lived... which is why your analogy sounds good... but doesn't ring true.

I still like my analogy better... of a captive nature under a different ruler, but still not submitted... but again... I won't push what I think onto you. It remains a personal interpretation... and I'm content to let you "round up" your garden, while I till and pull, and constantly watch over, and tend carefully my garden... and let the Lord be the final judge....

What do the bold mean? You never met someone who wasn't sinning before God? Or you never met someone who had never sinned sometime in their life? To be perfect is not to have never ever sinned in the past. You keep seeming to try to claim "be ye perfect" is only applicable to people who have never ever sinned aka Jesus only. Is that you problem with the call to perfection? You think its to have never ever sinned at all in you entire life?
