What does Paul call scripture? What do Christians now call Scripture? Please explain what the difference is?
Originally posted by ThinkOfOneDo you think that someone apart from Jesus has lived a sinless life on earth?
Tell you what.
Either cite passages where, while He walked the Earth, Jesus taught that it is impossible for anyone to "keep his commands all the time" OR admit that you don't know of any.
If you do that, I'll address your question.
