Are We All Sinners? by fergusen: 10:35pm On Jun 19, 2021
Are we all sinners?

I was following a conversation on Facebook and the majority of commenters were like, "we are all sinners", "Nobody is/can be righteous", and so on.

Well, let me ask nairaland pastors, Bishops, Apostles, Reverends, etc, what Titus was trying to say in Titus 2:11-14
Revised Standard Version

11 For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men, 
12 training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world, 
13 awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior[a] Jesus Christ, 
14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.


Help us understand what Titus was trying to say.

What is Titus trying to say pls sad
1. We are not all sinners... those who continually submit to and obey the Teachings of Jesus Christ, the Truth of God,do not remain sinners for by knowing the Truth, they are set free from slavery to sin by the Truth of God, - John 8 vs 31 - 39 - eventually becoming righteous in the sight of God... John 14 vs 20 - 21 undecided

2. The context of the passage you quoted from Titus begins in verse 1 - Titus 2 vs 1 - 14. And the True teaching reference is the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, the New Covenant Law, Jesus Christ, as documented in the Gospels- Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

It depends on what it means to be a sinner.

Is it the lifestyle or the mistake?

Is it the rule or the exception?

Is it the wickedness or the weakness?

There are many men called righteous in the Bible. Some were even called perfect by God like Job, so was it a mistake and were these same men also sinners?

Obviously not if God's Word was anything to go by. So saying all men are sinners and no man can be righteous is not inspired of God but of the flesh and of men, hence it can only profit nothing but death and destruction.

God bless.

YES!
We are all sinners! Romans 3:23; 5:12
But we can be redeemed from sin if only we're willing to accept God's loving provision which is Jesus' ransom sacrifice. Our sins will be blotted out if we exercise faith in Jesus and live the rest of our life for Jesus! Matthew 9:2

Mathew 7:16-20 answers it.
