Stick around for a while, and you will understand the why of the responses.

Regardless of your sarcasm, when you wrote this:
Where have I said that?
Oh, I get it.
You did not understand the sarcasm.
I beg your forgiveness for not having an emoticom. Tambora was kind enough to provide me with a few.
So, here it is.
At least jzeidler, to whom I was responding, understood the sarcasm without the emoticom.
... you seem to indicate that you think that MAD gives a "license to sin".
In many of your previous post I read similar statements.

Well, whatever makes you feel good with yourself, but nothing you posted in any way says that Paul is saying he is no longer a sinner, and that he didn't mean "I am the chief of sinners," like he said. And we should imitate him in repentance.

I have NEVER nor will I EVER say that MAD gives a 'license to sin' for I know that is NOT what MAD teaches, even though I am not MAD.
That is YOU, Right Divider, reading into what I have not written.

Then I apologize for misunderstanding your position
So do I rightly understand that you believe that we should ask for forgiveness on a regular basis?
LOL, The "bar" I've set for myself is a little higher than that.
Most forums I've been in over the past 10 years or so , are usually controlled by 3 to 6 people who have built their understanding on the mistranslation of the Greek word pisteuo. I always warn them for their benefit, but don't allow them to beat on me for to long.
I've taken a two year break from sharing this message with anyone. So I'm primed for another beating for the benefit of the called ones.
TOL seems to have a lot of members, where would you go if you were me?
You don't have to do anything what Jesus says if you don't esteem His word.

Apologies accepted.
If you think I said that, you should go back and read all the posts where you have read what I have not written.

Click on the 'Active' and go down the list and see if any one of the titles call your attention and participate. That's what I do.
In some of the groups you will have to ask permission to participate in.
Thanks!
Ok, lets look at the other side of that coin.
If I did esteem His Word, would anything I did be worth anything?
All I "have" to do is "Faithe"! Most people know this word as "believe", the mistranslation of "piteuo", used 248 times in the Gospels.
As a result of "faithing", He does what I "have" to do through me. In other words, I surrender my life to Him (pisteuo) and as a result of Him taking that offered life,He indwells in my fleshly body with His Spirit, and His word will manifest itself through me. None of this do, do, this and don't do that. His Word is not a manual for us to live by. His word is a mirror that will reflect Him in us, and will produce joy and a lot of other things.

Your testimony stinks like sulfur! You believe not that your trespasses are already forgiven. Colossians 2:13 KJV
2 Corinthians 4:3-4 KJV

It's not to you Matthew 15:24 KJV, Romans 15:8 KJV but you wrongly apply it to yourself as Catholics often do. Why don't you believe the testimony of Paul written TO us that all of our trespasses are forgiven (Colossians 2:13 KJV)?
Of course, you are showing loyalty to your Lord.
Lord honor all His loyal servants.
His Father loves those who honor His Son.
Loyalty to your Lord is just fruit of Spirit.
If we don't produce fruit, Jesus will chop down and burn it.
Do you need reference for this?
blessings.
