Thankfully Ron is much better and was able to be part of the Working Bee at Church today, although mostly Supervising but yes hands on when needed.
Carolyn is home again and also feeling much better and coping well. Both still have physical problems that need to have Medical help but God has answered our Prayers in that they are both improving each day and remain positive in their focus.
Ron would like to say Thank you for your Prayers, his comment is below…..
Thank you one and all for all the prayer offered up for me with my Myloma and for your prayers for Carolyn and her heart irregularities, prayer is God’s answer to Mankind’s problems, Thanks Anne.
I also appreciate very much your Faithfulness and Support in this Storm, God Bless you all greatly, please continue to Pray as you feel lead, we remember nothing is impossible for our Loving, Merciful and Compassionate Abba Father, except doing evil.
Christian Love Always – Anne.
So glad to hear the update! Blessed be God! Hope that he continues to do well!!

Hi Victor, I have replied to your response on your last Marriage Post a few times now but they have disappeared , please check your Spam, I will try again but I will also put my reply to you below but if you do find my Comments in Spam please advise WordPress as your settings may have been adjusted, also look to see if my details are in your Spam list this has happened with some who were commenting on my Blog, perhaps someone at WordPress does not agree with Scripture either and are walking in the Carnal flesh.
My Comment on your Blog……
I cannot speak Victor for all those who Blog as Christians or for all Churches but I have experienced because of my own experience as a Christian and with my Ministries which involved my being in contact with many different Denominations and House Churches and now with Christian Blogs, strong opposition to this Teaching from Scripture, most claim we will Sin till we die but it’s OK because we are under Grace and this fleshy understanding is not confirmed in the Scriptures.
Yes our Past Sins are forgiven after Heart Repentance but God’s Grace does not give us a license to continue sinning, although Jesus is our Advocate if we do Sin and Repent before we are Born Again and before our Carnal Flesh is put to death but when we are Perfected in Love we will no longer Sin, being Born Again of God’s Seed means we cannot Sin, we have His Nature not Adams, the Old has gone the New has come.
1John 3:1-11 (9) No one who is Born of God will continue to Sin, because God’s Seed remains in him he cannot go on Sinning because he has been Born of God.KJV

The word of God tells us that sin shall not have dominion over us. But the temptations to commit sin are always and in our flesh we are succeptible to yield. I believe that’s why the Bible says we should walk in the spirit and we will not fulfill the desires of the flesh.
Thanks be to God who assured us we will not be tempted more than we can handle.

Victor I have shared many Scriptures that confirm we don’t go on Sinning when we are Perfected in Love because our Carnal flesh has been put to death and we have God’s Seed and cannot Sin.
We also need to read in Context too Victor and if you read all of (1John1 and John 2 and 3) you will see if we say we know God but walk in darkness we lie or if we don’t keep His Commandments we don’t know Him either.
If we say we don’t Sin so we don’t need Salvation which Atheists often do, yes we are calling God a liar but if He cleanses us from all Unrighteousness when we Repent, than we can’t Sin because we are conformed into the Image of Christ, good and evil cannot co -exist this is why we must put our Carnal flesh to death if we go on sinning than we will die spiritually.
Romans 8 :12-15 Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation but it is not to the Sinful nature, to live according to it. or if you live according to the Sinful nature, you will die but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body you will live because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
1 John 3: 6-8 whosoever abideth in Him Sinneth not: whosoever Sinneth hath not seen Him, neither known Him. Little Children, let no man deceive you he that doeth Righteousness is Righteous, even as He is Righteous.
Romans 6:5-7 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of Sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve Sin. For he that is dead is freed from Sin.
Romans 6:18-20 Being then made free from Sin, ye became the Servants of Righteousness.

There were no links Victor on the Scripture I shared in my Comments including on the Comments that went into Spam, it is being done deliberately by someone who has access to WordPress controls, it’s the same now on other Blogs when I comment.
What is not understood Victor is that it is our Carnal flesh that causes us to Sin when it is put to death and we are Perfected in Love, we no longer Sin which the Scripture I shared confirms very clearly. To reject Scripture for what others teach us or because of what we think, shows little Godly Wisdom.
Please read again the Scripture I shared with you Victor, which is also below and other Scriptures that confirm this Truth too and I’m sure you will understand that when we are Born Again we no longer Sin, it is not what Anne thinks but what God tells us, we are all to Aim to be Perfected in Love not half way but fully and this is not being Taught in the Churches.

1 John 2:4-6 He that saith I know Him and keepeth not His Commandments is a liar and the Truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth His word in him verily is the Love of God Perfected hereby know we that we are in Him. He that saith he bideth in Him ought himself also so to walk even as He walked.(KJV)
Luke 6:45-46 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.(KJV)

2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises dearly beloved let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit Perfecting Holiness in the fear of God. (KJV)

It okay Anne, thanks for the explanations.
On the issue of a Christian not sinning any more, I have my questions too. This is because even though the Bible says that he that is born of God doesn’t sin, I know that Christians still sin, although not deliberately most times. And God cannot lie!
My understanding of that Scripture is that my spirit cannot sin. And I can’t say the same of my flesh. That’s why the Bible also, He is just and faithful to forgive us when we sin. Thanks for all the quoted scriptures.

Once the Carnal flesh has been put to death, we are Born again of God’s Seed not Adams and we cannot Sin, we Trust and Believe God’s Truth in the Scriptures Victor and not our own understanding or what we have been taught in error.

Aren’t we born again before we can put the canal flesh to death? It’s our spirit that is born again, not our flesh.
Of course, Anne. I know God cannot lie; the scripture is true. But at the same time no scripture should be taken in isolation.
Believers should not, but they do sin. But it is their flesh that sinned, not their spirit. We can see it in the following scriptures too ( 1 John 1):
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
