Greetings kerwin….. your point is well taken and having said that,there is no justification for sin,however,our carnality supplies the reason for sin and Jesus' sacrifice gives us the opportunity to seek repentance which is a gift from God…
Ted,I agree with you that repentance is a gift from God as all good things come from God. John the Baptist and others taught repentance. Jesus also taught repentance but he also taught how to receive by the Holy Spirit. He not only taught those thing but also enabled them by sacrificing himself that we may receive and live by the Spirit. That is why he declared that the Spirit, as councilor, would not come unless he left.
We should all be aware that any question ask that has no direct answer in the new testament scriptures is destined to be answered with personal opinions and speculation. This question can only propigate personal beliefs. I say no matter whether you think it is a sin or not, I do not condemn the person that does it. If there is no condemnation there is no matter. IMO, TK
