I practice charity when I don't say what's really on my mind but forgive people like you who write moronic posts that try to bait Christians when they don't know the first thing about what it means to be a Christian. And I guarantee it's not about being perfect but realizing that your a sinner in need of a savior.
Do you realize that?
I expected something like that. You have forgotten that confessing that "your a sinner" does not mean you can just go on sinning, counting on the savior to bail you out. It is supposed to be the beginning of the hard process of repentance and reform.

And I still have a sin nature... I'm not sinless... I sin less. But every time I do I repent and ask Christ forgiveness which he does EVERY time because of what He did for us on the cross.
But you don't get it.

Great brilliant quotes by great thinkers, but mostly needed by the party of Joe Biden, the Marxist -Democrat party. Let them learn something from these.
The government takes more from us. What they provide is a return of what they've taken from the people who produce. The most dangerous is when they get so fat, and gabble more when people could no longer afford to provide.

Republicans do not support collectivism.
The left are more likely to embrace collectivism. Things like universal healthcare and “free” college, an expanded welfare state and gun control measures.
Conservatives have supported tariffs, expanded military power, supported the criminalization of same sex marriage, and embraced policies such as the War on Drugs.
Republicans also imposed restrictions on woman’s rights going so far as to restrict women from going out of state for health care.
