I manage to have self-discipline not to sin again

I'm not even tempted to watch entertainment, drama or theatre again, and I think I'm not tempted to smoke in public, or drink alcohol for more than an hour, or masturbate, or do oral sex or anal sex anymore, I can manage not to sin, and I'm in heaven.
It's not what you do, it's what you don't do.

        Just as I suspected! 🤔

    Humans inherently have a disposition towards sin, and no amount of self control can stop oneself from sinning.

      It really can though. self-control is the reason normal people don't steal from shops; hit people who they don't like, take hard drugs, etc, etc.

        Self control can stop oneself from committing many sins, but it can not stop oneself from sinning in general.

          That's what you think, once I control myself I'll never sin again, being forced to sin makes me angry.

            I really liked it when you were a sinner splurging above your means!

      It depends on the kind of Christianity you follow, my Christianity isn't the everyday orthodox or modern versions or cultish versions of Christianity that tell you you were born a sinner and once a sinner always a sinner, Puritans don't sin and they don't believe the above beliefs of Christianity, any Christianity that claims you sin is false. And furthermore you're not tied into "religion" because you're delusional, you're tied into "religion" because you're an expert at it and the king of religion.

        Why do you believe that a human can be without sin?

          Because I'm a walking example. I've never sinned in my entire life.

          Because unlike conventional Christianity I'm not a Catholic (I don't call your religion conventional, it's probably invented because you're weird), also because I don't want to die with the guilt of thinking I sinned.

            My religion is very much conventional. It is extremely Catholic; it's the most Catholic you can get.

            Why does what you want change what you believe? What is true does not change based on what you want.

              It doesn't change? Truth varies from person to person and time to time, it's not absolute.
