  Doktah Jekyll & Mr Hyde.. I presume! That's exactly what the puritanical false doctrine of remaining, indwelling sin presents as a representation of what a Christian is. Like the guy with 2 little creatures, one on each shoulder. On one side is an 'angel' in a white robe with wings and a harp whispering in the guy's ear... "do the right thing now" and on the other side a little red imp with horns, long tail with a point at the end and a pitch fork squawking into the guy's other ear... "C'mon let's have some fun by doing mischief! Don't worry; you won't Die!"


  Are Christians people with dual personalities? Isn't Christianity supposed to set a man Free from his sin? At least that's what Messiah taught.

Romans
