Identity vs. Behavior

...[A] believer's identity (i.e. who they are in Christ,
redeemed, sanctified, washed, indwelt, righteous, regenerated,
etc., ) is not the same thing as their behavior.
Your life is your testimony. If one is a devil,
eventually his horns show (Jn 3:19).

[Your life is your testimony. If one is a devil,
eventually his horns show (Jn 3:19).] So you are your
behavior, is that what you're saying?
You thought someone else's behavior was your behavior?
Pr 23:7

I'm asking you whether or not you make a distinction between a
believer's identity, and their behavior.
If I murder, what does that make me? If I commit adultery, what does that make
me? If I steal, what does that make me? If I lie, what does that make me? 1 Co

[If I murder, what does that make me? If I commit adultery, what
does that make me? If I steal, what does that make me? If I lie,
what does that make me? 1 Co 6:9-10] None of those things make
you anything at all.
If you murder, you are a murder. If you commit adultery, you are an adulterer.
If you steal, you are a thief. If you lie, you are a liar. If you do all of
these things you are a murdering, adulterous, thieving liar--and someone in need
of a savior (1 Co 6:9-10).

Okay, so three questions for you then...
Do you acknowledge that one who: murders, commits adultery, steals and lies is
a: murdering, adulterous, thieving liar?
1 Co 6:9-10.

So if I sin...
It's a yes or no question.
Are you a: murdering, adulterous, thieving liar?
1 Co 6:9-10

No.
Were you ever a: murdering, adulterous, thieving liar? 1 Co 6:9-10
Are you ever going to answer any of the
questions I've asked you...?
It's a yes or no question.
Jesus
came to save sinners (Mt 9:10-13).

Everything about a Christian’s life must come into
harmony with the mind of Christ and the actions of Christ. No pretenders are
allowed in heaven.
