jfroggy, I think Timmy was trying to nudge you for saying that God cannot do something, according to your answer.

Re: Is a 100% sinless life possible?

I am of the opinion most people "sin" every day.

Less than perfect attitudes...

less than perfect love...

So, if there could be a hypothetical sinless man born tomorrow, what would the implications be?

Oh, I didn't realize that. There's many things God can't do... So no worries with my explanation. I just gave a good reason why he couldn't do it

Re: Is a 100% sinless life possible?

If we define "sin" as just breaking certain rules, then as long as those rules aren't broken we have not sinned.

Some teach that when Jesus comes in our human spirit is born again and becomes incapable of ever sinning, so, in that case we may sin in our flesh (which has not been born again yet) but our spirit cannot sin because it has been made perfect forever.

Oh nothing.
Surprise in Heaven
anonymous

I dreamt death came the other night
And Heaven’s gate swung wide.
An angel with a halo bright
Ushered me inside.

And there! To my astonishment
Stood folks I’d judged and labeled
As “quite unfit”, “of little worth”,
And “spiritually disabled”.

Indignant words rose to my lips
But never were set free,
For every face showed stunned surprise --
Not one expected me!

Thanks Sam, that is great, and I believe has much truth in it.
