You are absolutely not getting it. Jesus died for all the sins of the whole world, but the salvational criteria for His atonement to be applied to anyone, is faith and repentance of sins. Human logic thinks that since His atonement is for all sins, then all sins are forgiven at salvation when...

The ten commands ARE the covenant, says many scriptures. They are called the covenant on two tables of stone. Maranatha

God commanded animal sacrifice in the law of Moses. Where do you sacrifice your animals at?

Arche can mean the beginning of a thing, the beginner of a thing, or the head of a thing, leaving the correct one of the three meanings in your proof text discernible by looking at other passages, such as Colossians 1:16, where Jesus made all things that were created, and John 1:3, without...

Now look up what that means. It means the beginner of creation, or the author of creation, not the first thing that was created. Colossians 1:16, Jesus created every single thing that was made, without exception. Did Jesus therefore create Himself? Good trick, creating yourself. ISV: Rev...

Stauros can mean both. Look it up. I did. Jesus begged nothing about which way He would die. That’s a fantasy. The cup of suffering was his death for our sins. How He was to die was not part of His Gethsemane prayer. Stauros: G4716 (Strong) σταυρός stauros stow-ros' From the base of...

Oh yeah, I was forgetting their false claim that Christians are of the category called ‘Christendom’ and that Jehovahs judgment will first fall on us - who have the Holy Spirit indwelling us, and have been born again, something the WTS has no clue about, but will be surprised to see which group...

The Bible describes Jesus being made to carry the cross piece to His crucifixion. I do believe we have historical accounts that Rome executed common criminals using a cross, not a stake. The WTS only insists it was a torture stake, to “prove” they alone have the truth about everything, even...

Their New World Translation doesn’t qualify as a Bible, says actual degreed biblical scholars. I believe they refer to it as a sectarian paraphrase. BTW I do believe that Young’s Literal Translation reads closest to the Greek. Maranatha

That’s just another device the WTS uses to claim that only they have the truth in all areas. They even know how Jesus died, better than anyone else does. Shalom

The WTS goes so far as to say you’ll go into darkness if you study the scriptures without their commentary telling you how they must be interpreted. That’s a huge warning sign, all by itself. Maranatha

I see it as more of the same error the early church had, leading to the entire letter to the Galatians being written to make clear the church is not under the old covenant- calling the mount Sinai covenant bondage and slavery in Galatians 4:21-31. Shalom Aleichem

If that were true, there’d be no need to specifically warn the brethren to not be deceived. I’m not talking just one isolated warning, but many specific warnings. And reading Romans 7 and 8 together- since they are about the conflict believers have between our flesh driving us to sin, vs...

I gave the scriptures that say old sins and past sins are forgiven at salvation, ill stick with scripture. His sacrifice was for all the sins of the world, once for all time, but God can choose how that sacrifice is applied to us, which requirements are faith and repentance- but when scripture...

If true, which is doubtful, it doesn’t change the facts. Romans executed common criminals on crosses, such as the two thieves crucified with Jesus. I know the Russelites mistranslated the NWT to make it say torture stake instead of cross, but that’s not correct. Maranatha

Hyper grace says Christians are free to sin as much as they want. Paul disagrees: Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? Rom 6:2 God forbid! How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Rom 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is...

Sorry, the WTBTS is wrong.(the watchtower to the viewers of this post) We know from historic accounts that the Romans executed criminals using a cross, complete with a T bar - in fact they made Jesus carry that part of the cross to His execution. Maranatha

Eph 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh SAINTS. Eph 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of...

And the reason you’re hearing it is because the Bible corrects human reasoning with scripture. Since Jesus died for all sins, the natural ASSUMPTION is that at salvation, all sins, past, present, and future, are forgiven. However, when scripture plainly and clearly says that OLD SINS, and SINS...
