If His death didn't cover all our sins, then HE COULDN'T have redeemed all mankind, because without the shedding of blood, there is NO FORGIVENESS of sins. There is NO WAY to be cleansed from our sins except by forgiveness and there is no way to receive forgiveness except by the shedding of blood.
Anyone who thinks that they can pay for their own sins is deceiving themselves..... for now.
Protestantism, a tiny little bit of truth mixed with all the heresies. One heresy, you have to keep saying “works” (our lives lived) are NOT what determines if we go to Heaven. To support Martin Luther’s lie of Faith alone.
Not true.
No, it’s faith and works, with the help of God’s grace.
God helps us get ourselves to heaven? That leaves room for man to boast.
Scripture speaks against that as well. It's totally by undeserved forgiveness on God's part. If our works contributed to our salvation, then our salvation would be deserved.
Amen. God very clearly from the very first said that without the shedding of blood there is NO remission of sins (Leviticus 17:11) and that the "wages" of sin is DEATH (Romans 6:23). But the GIFT of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Mankind can not pay the penalty for his own sin and expect to make it to heaven because the death God speaks of is eternal separation from him. So, either we pay for our sins by eternally being separated from God in hell, or we accept His gift of grace which is eternal life in heaven with him because our sin debt has been paid in full by the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
