[MarkBsnr]

Just to clarify..I am speaking of someone who is a Christian struggling with a sin they have repented of, turned away from, such as alcohol, but then allowed themsleves to drink yet again...they have no tome to repent of this one sin you had mentioned might not be atoned for since without repentance there is no forgiveness of this sin.

Beyond Jesus and the Church, I have no answer.

What do you mean we are still instructed in the Judgement, there is no free pass?...I don't understand.... If Christ forgives our sin and paid the price for that then why would we fear any Judgement of our sins..if as you say the "intentions " would likely be favorable as well...?

Christ pays the price for the sins that we repent of; He does not pay the price for those we don't. If you cannot repent of them, why should He bother at all? He has paid the price; but if you cannot repent, then that price is invalid.

So we're back to square one..the individual has repented of their sins, but then they mess up and struggle with a particular sin which, from what I understand you're saying, if he's in that state of sin and dies then we have no clue if he's facing heaven...ref “intentions were good”... or hell ...ref..”Christ pays the price for the sins that we repent of; He does not pay the price for those we don't...if you cannot repent, then that price is invalid”.

So any of us if we die in a “state of sinning a sin not repented of”...though having been saved from sin prior....are still doomed for hell?

But your comment...Beyond Christ and the church you have no answer leaves one in the lurch....the question of ones salvation then is unsettled this side of heaven, from what I'm understanding you are saying, rather we all continue to face fearful Judgment because there is no security of the believer even if they gave their life to Christ and accepted his atonement for their sins. If even one sin is not repented of we are doomed? Correct?
