I did a search but couldn't find this topic. It's an ongoing question I've had.
In short: did Paul sin? I don't see a recorded instance. Was he the walking Holy Spirit at the time meaning: was He always walking in the Holy Spirit and therefore never sinning? Was he always in the Zone?
A side issue but related to it: Was the struggle and failure he described in Romans a personal struggle he faced all the time, at times with a particulr indwelling sin that Jesus hadn't released him from yet (who will deliver me from this body of sin thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord) or was he describing a pre-believer trying to do right who didn't have Jesus yet at all and wanted freedom and Jesus was the answer.
But the main question is: Did Paul sin and what do we base it on?
