Because I live by morals, which are based on the standards of God. Then since I am a believer, I then have the Holy Spirit guiding and reaffirming those morals.Why do you choose to not ?

I'd say that all men sin since the fall,Mankind since the Fall, and Lucifer and the fallen angels who also chose to disobey God.
Good. But I explained my belief in the thread just before this one.Because I live by morals, which are based on the standards of God. Then since I am a believer, I then have the Holy Spirit guiding and reaffirming those morals.
I meant as in desiring to lie to get out of an issue, or stealing to benefit yourself. Forgive me, that wasn’t the best word choice. I meant *urge*, the urge to sin. And I don’t mean it as in everytime you are tempted you have the urge, but I mean those times when you are tempted that you give into the urge to sin.I'd say that all men sin since the fall,
I don't know if I'd say that ALL men DESIRE to sin.
I really never did even before I was born again.
Also, I'd say that a person could be an atheist and still be very morally aware and correct.
I think that sinning, and DESIRING to sin are two totally different ideas.
Yes. I agree.I meant as in desiring to lie to get out of an issue, or stealing to benefit yourself. Forgive me, that wasn’t the best word choice. I meant *urge*, the urge to sin. And I don’t mean it as in everytime you are tempted you have the urge, but I mean those times when you are tempted that you give into the urge to sin.

IT IS NOT ABOUT LOGIC AND PHILOSOPHY.In a sense he “can’t” because he won’t. He is in a sense “unable” to do wrong. (In which if we were to apply this to the issue of Calvinism, he would be unable to determine someone to murder or r*pe. Therefore even if you believe that God has no freeness of will, then logically, Calvinism cannot be true) (Also if you believe that logic is concept put forth by carnal men, then that’s another issue). With that aside, I am essentially “unable” to murder a man, because I *won’t*, doesn’t mean I couldn’t. I still have the choice to murder or not, I will just always choose to not.
Is Truth not logical?It is about God revealing truth to His people.
Thank youPS
I forgot to welcome you to the Forum.
If revealed truth is logical,nothing wrong with that because God revealed what we did not know.Is Truth not logical?
If logic is governed by the Spirit of Truth.Is Truth not logical?
