Sinful flesh is not sin nor does it has sin

Sinful flesh is not sin nor does it has sin. (Note: the picture below demonstrates the false doctrine held in fallen Christianity while the diagram explains the truth)
Sinful flesh is not sin nor does it has sin. It is simply a flesh affected by sin and not one necessarily infected by sin. The flesh is only infected with sin when due to an absence of God in the mind idol values immediately develop and cause sinful thoughts that cause sinful desires to flow in the flesh and sinful actions to be carried out by the person's members. Sinful flesh as referred to in Romans 8:3 is different to St Augustine's idea of man having a sin nature, which is the philosophy of a sin-infected flesh being inherited from Adam. The sin nature doctrine is a concept of sin being part of human nature so that it could only be taken away when a person gets a new body. However the truth is the bible does not teach man has a sin nature. It speaks of sinful flesh which Jesus Himself had. And because he never was separated from the indwelling of God Jesus never sinned and always abided in sinfreeness. Remember sin always start in the mind (Matt.7:21) before it could flow in evil passions and emotions in the flesh (Rom.7:5,6). Thus for man to be Sinfree God must deal with his mind through the truths of Gospel which reveal the Righteousness of God or the Love of God, that when we believe; God then implants in our heart as our experience by His indwelling.
Sinful flesh is a flesh affected by sin, primarily due to infirmities in the flesh e.g. tiredness, hunger, sleepiness, weaken intellectual abilities, a flesh that can die, all these are due to sin but is not sin.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we are

DID ELLEN G. WHITE EVER CALL THE S.D.A. CHURCH BABYLON IN ANY WAY? BY NYRON MEDINA

In the Bible is brought to view the following statement: “And after these things I  saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was  lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all  nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the  earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are  waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice  from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her  sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:1-4. Of this Scripture  we are told that it speaks about the Church, fallen because of sins. “In amazement  they [the people] hear the testimony that Babylon is the church,

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS  EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina Statement of the case 1. Imputed and imparted righteousness are usually seen as different things in apostate  theology; they are presented as happening either successively or at the very same time,  but they are presented as two different salvific functions.  “In this most illuminating paragraph, the writer traces two distinct phases in the process  of our salvation—two complementary aspects of the plan of redemption—which are in a  certain sense successive, but at the same time simultaneous; two different operations of  the same righteousness of Christ, which alone can satisfy the demands of divine justice  and make saints of us. Let us analyze in outline form these two phases:  A. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST BY WHICH WE ARE JUSTIFIED.  1. It is imputed to us, which is, credited, granted freely without our earning it.  2. It provides our right to heaven. It is the only merit we can claim.
