...and you better understand that Jesus was schooling a multitude about righteousness - His, or that of the pharisees...
...sounds familiar.
1John 3 says it all--it is a mirror for all to peer into--it teaches who is a child of God and who is a child of the devil and it says---- Its impossible for a child of God to practice even 1 sin.--- so it is telling everyone if you practice just one sin-you are not a child of God.
Many teachers lie and say Jesus death covers all sin--they are teachers of darkness. Ear ticklers.

its the practice of sin that is condemned.= willfull sin. When one knows it is sin but does it anyways. but there will be 0 excuse for not knowing what God disapproves of.

Good luck getting fundamentalist mindset to understand the difference, but
As far as "what" God disapproves of: simple: whatever is not based on the concern for the well-being of anyone in any situation.
In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed, “Father, I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.” How could He say that to His Father when He had not yet been crucified?
It was because He lived in the finished work—the realm of “done”. That’s the place of rest. And that’s where and how God wants you and I to live.
Christianity is not "DO", it's "DONE".
Long before man sinned, God already had the provision. The Bible tells us that Jesus was slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8). This means that everything you need accomplished in your life has been accomplished. Long before you see your healing, know that God has already finished the work of your healing. If you are in lack, see that all the work for your provision has been finished.
How do we live in the realm of “it is done?” Just look at Jesus. When He saw a man who was lame for 38 years, He said, “Rise, take up your bed and walk” (John 5:8). You don’t say that to the man unless you see the finished work.
Another time, Jesus saw a man in the synagogue whose arm was withered and said to him, “Stretch out your hand” (Matthew 12:13). Jesus treated the man who was lame like he had a pair of strong, healthy legs, and the man whose arm was withered like his arm was whole. He walked in the finished work.
The old covenant was demanding; the new covenant of His grace is supply.
Good Point! -- This is actually similar to the promises God has spoken into existence in scripture (by the same 'Word' that He spoke the universe and life into existence). All that remains is for man to take hold of the promise in faith! No further consideration or action on God's part is necessary.

Partaking off the table of demons is a big part of it.( 1Cor 10:21) satan uses love and sharing( and false god worship) by transforming into an angel of light( 2Cor 11:12-15) and gets 99% to partake off that table regularly.

The words don't seem to mean anything to me. Can you give me an example?
