@SCWatchman I mean "that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief."

@sinbach hmm. The video shows a sheep being pulled out of the ditch only to jump and fall into the ditch again a little further down the path. But in 1 Timothy 1:15 Paul was talking about how he was a great sinner in the past because he had blasphemed Jesus and persecuted the Disciples of Jesus Christ. We see this in verse 13 & 16 where he talked about "obtaining mercy" because he had done it in ignorance and unbelief.
But you are not in unbelief brother. You are tirelessly helping to support the Disciples of Jesus Christ.
I can see if you are getting yourself into trouble helping people and Jesus has to rescue you often. 😊

@SCWatchman if you no longer sin as a follower of Christ, then I applaud you. Keep going and pls keep your lowly brother in prayer. Like Paul, I too am one who not only needs mercy from past sins, but ALSO from that which I do not want to do, but do and for not doing that which I want to do and do not (Romans 7:14-25). You are right - I am NOT in unbelief, BUT am redeemed and put my trust in Him. I share this beautiful message of redemption all over the world. My sins are forgiven! However, my transformation is painful and ugly and my sins need daily forgiveness. Like the sheep, I fall and need the shepherd. My battle with the flesh is daily. Though Christs forgiveness is immediate, my transformation tarries because of my love of the world and sin. God's Word is pure and His treasure is carried daily in this broken vessel made of earth and clay. I rejoice that His mercies are new every morning because Eugene Bach needs them every morning.

@sinbach I am praying for you every time I get on DingDash. Yes, I no longer Sin but do not applaud me, it is a work of the Holy Spirit & not anything that I did. I was a porn addict. I didn't conquer &/or overcome my porn addiction. I couldn't. I was a hopeless slave of sin(John 8:34-36). Jesus did it. He buried the human/sin nature that I had in baptism on (Feb 7th 2016) & raised me up a son of God (new creature) with the nature of Jesus. It was not over time. It was like Mary said in The Chosen. "I was one way before & now I am completely different & the thing that happened in between was Him" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6sHNLmYbAM 13:15-1:05:17). I can never go back because the Holy Spirit remains in me(1 John 3:9), I am one spirit with Him(1 Cor 6:17) & like it says in Ezek 36:27 He "causes me" to keep His commandments & judgments & do them. This is what was prophesied by the LORD in Hosea, "I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD." -Hos 2:20

@sinbach Beyond this I wish to call attention to the fact that Paul was writing in Romans 7:14-24 in the first person present tense about when he was a pharisee & in the flesh(Romans 7:5). Paul confirms this in Romans 8:9 when he says, "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his."

@sinbach This is my testimony of how He saved me from my sins https://scwatchman.space/my-testimony/
