Not by man. Christ was the only and complete atonement for sin.

My last post on the subject: Then why does Matthew record Christ (And He knew that He was to die for our sins) say that WE smut pay every last cent?

Rightly dividing the word of God seems foreign to Catholics. Matthew 5:25-26 is talking about settling disputes or matters HERE ON EARTH with each other prior to making a sacrifice. The "sacrifice" He was talking about was the sacrifice of the Old Testament covenant.

You know, technically, we wouldn’t get out until we paid the last cent.

But since that’s an impossibility, because we can’t pay the debt we owe, then that means that those people are in prison FOREVER.

The only way that can be dealt with is if the debt is paid for the person owing it by someone else, which is what Jesus did with His FINISHED work on the cross.

A lot of the gospels are prophecy, haven't happened yet...And will not til after Jesus returns...
