Jesus' sacrifice on the cross was sufficient to pay for all the sins of the entire world, but it does not do everyone good. That is because God does not choose to wash away everyone's sins. There are conditions. When a person gets saved, all past sins are washed away. In addition, sins done...

Speaking of that, here is a warning to you. The Bible never says, "Faith plus nothing." It says, "Faith without works is dead." The Bible never says to believe and live as you want. That is another gospel, so you are accursed, damned. Do you understand what that means? Repenting of sins is...

On the same token, if God does not see our sins, and does not care how we live after we get saved, so long as we believe, why chastise us if we sin? He would not be able to see the sin through the blood. Also, why did Paul feel the need to put sinners out of the church in Corinth. They were...

He was speaking of their past sins. Here is the passage in context in in a real Bible. 2 Corinthians 5:18-20 "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the...

I know for a fact that the Bible does not tell anyone that all future sins are automatically under the blood. I know for a fact that the Bible says certain sins will keep us from having any inheritance in the Kingdom of God, and never says "unless you accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior at...

There is no question that simply turning from sin will not save a person. They will still never be able to save themselves. Only the blood of Jesus Christ can wash away the old sins, and even new ones done in error. If a Christian were to commit some terrible sin like murder, they would have...

When Jesus said we have eternal life because we believe in Him, he also made it clear that those who believe on Him obey Him. That is what you are not understanding. True faith brings about change in lifestyle. A person who is a true believer becomes Jesus' disciple and no longer continues in...

We know that things like Paul mentions in Galatians chapter 5:19-21 are not pleasing to God, and are not "loving for Him." Can we agree with Paul and the Bible that if a person is guilty of adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations...

It really does not make a lot of difference. The Bible makes it clear that anyone living after the flesh is not going to heaven. Paul gives examples of what living after the flesh is like. He gives a laundry list of sins, and says those who commit these sins will not inherit the Kingdom of...

For a long time, I found Romans confusing. It is confusing for a lot of people. Then one day, after having sought to get the correct interpretation for years, I finally came to understand it. The correct interpretation was just imparted to me as I was listening to it on cd. Paul was not...

That is interesting language you are using, "converted in Christ." If a person repents of their sins, meaning turns away from a lifestyle of sin, and accepts Jesus as their Lord and Savior and becomes His disciple, they are born again. Still, the Bible makes it clear a person can have their...

We are saying that the sacrifice only covers past sins and those done in ignorance. Much of his argument is that we are claiming a person could accidentally come short of God's glory and wind up in hell after they are saved. Nobody is saying that, so you need to throw that argument out the...

Obviously it is speaking of God's law, the Law of Moses. The Law of Moses is one law, but it had some parts that were eternal truths based on God's standard of holiness, and there were some parts that were temporal. You had some laws that were only to the Jews to show them separate from the...

According to Matthew 12:31-32, "Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever...

Here is a definition of a sinner from scripture. "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law; for sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4

The blood sacrifice will wash away sins past and sins done by mistake, and it will also wash away sins when they are confessed. It does not automatically wash away all sins future. Your argument is not Bible based. Jesus said that straight is the gate and narrow is the way that leadeth to...

The Bible literally says that if anyone speaks a word against the Holy Ghost, they will never be forgiven. That can be any word, not just unbelief. I have only met one person that did this, but I do not believe she can ever be forgiven. She literally called the Holy Spirit evil, and wanted to...

Perhaps you did lose it and did not know it? There is no reason for anyone to lose their salvation, but it is possible. If a person will simply trust in Jesus and obey His teachings, they have nothing to worry about. What will cost a person salvation is to continue to commit willful sins...

I can name another sin right now that guarantees a person will be condemned whether they believe or not. Those who blaspheme or speak a word against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness in this world or the next. Besides that, there are a whole host of sins that will keep people out of...

We are not saved by the Catholic Church and the sacraments. That is absolute nonsense. We do not have to suffer to be glorified. You took that completely out of context. We must be willing to stand for Christ, even if it leads to suffering. We cannot deny him, but it does not mean we must...
