As Deep As God demands

I think we can agree that that is all the deeper it needs to be.

EVERY person born is responsible for murdering Christ in a horrific manner

Ummmmmmm, I wasn't there. Next you'll be lobbying for Reparations.

We don’t ‘earn’ God’s grace- Grace is a FREE gift open to everyone.

*ahem* in your book, we can only earn it by accepting Christ as our personal Saviour...

Nope you weren’t- but you and I ARE responsible for Christ’s death because WE are born in sin and are at enmity with God. The only way sin could be forgiven was through the perfect final sacrifice of a perfect sacrifical being- Christ. Enmity is what caused the need, and we STILL have enmity wioth God. We are STILL all rsponsible for Christ havign to die because we lvoe sin more htna we love God. Christ’s death covered ALL sin for those who accept past present and future.

*Ahem*- no- we don’t ‘earn’ anything- we accept it or not. This issue also lies in the realm of predestination and election, but we’ll not get into that for now. Christ was th3e ONLY one who earned anything- He earned our redemtpion through His obedience to God and the demand of righteousness.

It is impossible to 'earn' salvation. Admitting that one is a sinner and need a Savior is not 'earning' salvation. Its, merely, telling the truth.
