and read Jesus Christ's own words:

HE clearly said: Luke 12:58-59 58 As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.

59 I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.”

-- the prison of hell you cannot get out of, and heaven is no prison, so Christ refers to what? think, chesley, think.

That is correct, that we could not get out of hell until the last penny is paid, which means that we would NEVER get out of hell because WE can’t pay that debt.

That is why we need the righteousness of Christ credited to our account, with the debt of sin canceled so that we don’t have to pay a debt we can’t pay.
