A current general belief of the SDA Church worldwide is this - The law of God cannot be kept perfectly. And sinlessness is not attainable in this life. Furthermore, you are conditioned to sin while being alive and you will sin until death or till Jesus Christ returns, whichever comes first. .

You will be warned, disciplined and excommunicated by the SDA Church if you teach or preach that perfection of character, a Christ-like life, a sinless life, a holy life, a pure life, an undefiled life, an unblemished life, a godly life, a life without sin, is possible through divine power.  

The devil is angry with the truth. And the SDA Church now becomes the agent of the devil to remove any pastor, worker or lay person who strongly preaches this truth. the devil has a deep hatred toward this truth because it has to do with salvation. What a person believes is what he is. His behavior will follow his belief. If he believes that we cannot live a holy life and that we will continue to sin because of our condition; you can tell what lifestyle this person would live life on earth?

Don’t forget, Christ was crucified by His own people that prided and boasted about their heritage from Abraham. They  called themselves the chosen of God – the Remnant of God - the keepers of the law, yet they never lived that Christlike life required of them.  

So, let’s take a look closely at what Spirit of Prophecy says of Enoch’s sinless lifeas an exampleof those who will beALIVE AND LIVING SINLESS BY DIVINE POWER AT THE TIME OF JESUS CHIRST’S SECOND COMING. THEY WILL BE TRANSLATED.   

Genesis 5:21 - And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:(22) - And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:(23) - And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: (24) And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. My

“For his faithful obedienceto God he was translated. So, also, the faithful, who are alive and remain, will be translated.” Testimonies to the church, Vol.2, p.121 

“During these earlier years Enoch had loved and feared God and had kept His commandments. He was one of the holy line, the preservers of the true faith,”  Patriarchs & Prophets, p.84. 

“The godly character of this prophet represents the state of holinesswhich must be attained by those who shall be “redeemed from the earth” (Revelation 14:3) at the time of Christ’s Second Advent.” Patriarchs and Prophets, pp. 88-89. 

Ellen G. White says, “Satan was urging upon men the belief that there was no reward for the righteous or punishment for the wicked, andthatit was impossible for men to obey the divine statutes.” Patriarchs and Prophets, p.88.

             

Ellen G. White says, “Men were taught that it is possible to obey the law of God; that even while living in the midst of the sinful and corrupt, they were able, by the grace of God, to resist temptation, and become pure and holy.”Patriarchs and Prophets, p.88 

(i). He (Jesus Christ) came to prove that humanbeings can, through the power of God, live sinless lives.” {Signs of the Times, August 9, 1905 par. 8}  

(ii). “Everyone who by faith obeys God’s commandments, will reach the condition of sinlessness in which Adam lived before his transgression.” Ellen G. White, Maranatha, August 4, p.224  (Ellen G. White, Signs of the Times, July 23, 1902)  

(iii). “He came to destroy the works of the devil, and He hasmade provision that the Holy Spirit shall be imparted to every repentant soul, to keep him from sinning.” Ellen G. White, Desire of Ages, p.311 

Comments - According to the three statements above, Ellen G. White says, “Sinlessness” is attainable through God’s divine power. By the way, she has many more statements stating the same truth on “sinlessness” than just those three statements above.

“There is no excuse for sinning. A holy temper, a Christ-like life, is accessible to every repenting, believing child of God.”  Ellen G. White, Desire of Ages, p.311 

Ellen G. White says, “Whatever contradicts God's word, we may be sure proceeds from Satan.” Patriarchs and Prophets, p.55
