He came not to judge. John 3:17
We are called to follow in His footsteps.
It is the Holy Spirit’s job to convincey of sin, righteousness, and judgement ... NOT OURS.
So, you just choose to ignore ALL of the other scriptures I gave you that PROVE your position is incorrect. This isn’t a conversation, as you simply repeat your dogma over and over without actually hearing what the other person is saying.
You still haven’t acknowledged that the Gospel, according to scripture, requires addressing the issue of sin. Jesus spoke out against sin. No amount of twisting isolated passages allows you to escape from that fact.
The Gospel is about being saved from SIN. It informs us that Jesus died for our SINS. It commands us to repent from our SINS. Informing people, all of whom are sinners, that God’s wrath is coming to the world because of sin is NOT judging. It is informing. It is rescuing them from ignorance.
From the same passage you cited:
John 3:36 NKJV
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.
If I tell a person that murder is a crime punishable by incarceration or execution, I am not JUDGING. I am merely informing. If they choose to murder anyway, they can be arrested, tried in a court of law, and sentenced by a judge. The judge and jury will carry out the “judging” in this case. Not me.
In such a case I am not wishing for someone to go to prison or be executed. I am hoping they will avoid these consequences by NOT committing murder in the first place. However, when it comes to eternal judgment, the crimes have already been committed. The judgment has already been decreed. But there is a remedy whereby we criminals can escape judgment. It is NOT by pretending no crime has been committed. It is by accepting our guilt AND accepting the payment for our crimes, which is Christ’s life given on the cross. He died for our SINS, according to the scriptures.
The job of the Holy Spirit to convict the world is ALWAYS done through the lives of believers in whom He dwells. The world does not have, receive, or see the Holy Spirit. So, how would He convict the world apart from the words and deeds of believers in whom He lives?
John 14:17 NKJV
The Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
