The Bible Never Said You’re Still a Sinner... Christians Have Been Taught Wrong

Did the New Testament writers actually define born-again believers as "sinners saved by grace"? Discover the massive translational error hidden in modern church clichés by examining the original Greek text and a rare 1685 King James Bible. Because the Bible never said you’re still a sinner... Christians have been taught wrong. Go deeper into the original manuscript evidence, download the Greek-to-English translation worksheets, and join the community inside The Portal at https://www.gclmedia.org Many Christians have been discipled to identify with the very condition Jesus Christ died to deliver them from. We have heard the phrases "I'm just a sinner saved by grace" and "nobody's perfect" preached and sung for generations, but an objective examination of the biblical text reveals that the New Testament epistles never address the church by their former condition. In this video, Biblical Expositor G.C. Lewis, Sr. breaks down the precise structural grammar behind Romans 3:23, 1 Corinthians 1:2, and 1 Corinthians 6:11. By unearthing the Koine Greek verb ἥμαρτον (hēmarton) from its root ἁμαρτάνω (hamartanō), we explore how the apostolic writers differentiated between a past-tense action and a present-tense covenant identity. Using an original, physical copy of the 1685 KJV on the studio desk, we trace the history of the word "saints" (hagios) and deconstruct how church culture has substituted historic manuscript evidence for emotional traditions. If you are tired of shallow, surface-level theology and want to investigate the unvarnished transmission of the biblical text, secure your copy of the book "Elucidations" and step into the Scriptorium. 📘 SECURE YOUR COPY OF ELUCIDATIONS: https://www.gclmedia.org (home screen) or get instant access in the Portal. 🏛️ JOIN THE PORTAL FOR DEEPER TEXTUAL STUDY: https://www.gclmedia.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 - The Phrase Millions of Christians Repeat 4:18 - Welcome to the Scriptorium (G.C.
