Your witness for Christ is that sinners He shed His Blood for are unwashed in His Blood and lost ! Dont you believe and teach that ?:jawdrop:
Your obedience is not worth much seeing that you are a sinner, Romans 3:23.
In the judgment your obedience will disappear in a puff of smoke.
Because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ God sees ALL THINGS as perfect and complete in his Son Jesus Christ, Colossians 1:20. However, nothing is yours until it is received by faith.
Incorrect.
I believe that you said that you are a sinner. Sinners are not supposed to be sinners.

So you really dont have a witness for Christ but against Him !
Paul said, "For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23.
There are two kinds of sinners, saved sinners and lost sinners.
Do you know anyone who used to be a sinner or is a sinner and knows that they are supposed to obey God?
Everyone is born with a conscious. By the age of 6 or 7 we all know right from wrong and become aware that there is a God and we should not sin against him.
Obedience is not sin. Disobedience is sin.
Why are you so concerned about obedience? Your very best obedience is sin, "There is none righteous, no, not one" Romans 3:10.
You need to accept your sinnerhood. God does not accept the obedience of sinners. Better find some other way to be saved.
I already am saved. I am talking to you about obedience because you do not seem to accept that God wants you to be obedient to Him.

You both the same, thinking that its something man does that gets you saved !
Everyone that was saved in the New Testament were saved because they responded to the Gospel. No response is a response. Only a blind fool would think other wise.
If you are trusting in your obedience you are not saved. God knows that we are sinners and not able to be obedient. What God wants is for us to believe on his Son Jesus Christ and be saved.
You are correct except that if you are saved you have no excuse to not be obedient.
It is the work of the Holy Spirit working in your life that will produce the Christian life. Ephesians 2:10.

God wants us to walk by faith....trusting in Him to perform His work in us. Those who are IN HIM are confident in His performing....not in our performance.
Philippians 1:6
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Neither one of you believe in the saving blood of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
