Do you love your kids?

Have they ever done anything of a sinful nature

Shawn writes: It is not my role to approve or disapprove of the behaviors of my children as it relates to sin. That is YHWH’s area, not mine. Whether or not I disapprove is meaningless. Only YHWH’s approval and disapproval matters.
If so....did you stop loving them because
you didn't like what they did?
Shawn writes: I love them, I love ALL people regardless of their behavior choices and I share with them the good news and model the Messiahs’ commands. I do not attempt to force them to conform to my beliefs or even YHWH’s laws. Whether they continue in their behavior or choose to stop their behavior, without belief and submission to YHWH through the Messiah, all are lost, regardless of the sin. The sin is irrelevant. The only difference between a believer and a non-believer is that the believer is a sinner saved by grace, the non-believer is a sinner with no salvation. The sinner and sin are inseparable. In order for sin to occur a sinner must act. In order for faith to exist, those with that faith must act.
Shalom,
Shawn
