Protestantism is based on the...theology that God paid our bills we owe to God for sins

Astounding. The fact you dismiss this core belief of Christianity positions yourself outside the church of God and contrary to God's word...again.

"For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." -- 1 Corinthians 6:20

Dr. E: Astounding. The fact you dismiss this core belief of Christianity positions yourself outside the church of God and contrary to God's word...again "For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." -- 1 Corinthians 6:20

And the Lord said "go, and from now on sin no more." (cf. John 8:11) Yes, He paid for our sins, but we are now obliged to sin no more. Without His sacrifice none had a chance to be saved. With His sacrifice the whole world has a chance to be saved.

For, as soon as He said "sin no more," He adds "Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." [ John 8:12 ]
