    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    That's interesting. In another discussion of ours, you demanded where in Scripture it says there is a throne of God on the earth. You demanded the literal wording. Now, with the literal wording against you, you call me a literalist who must be dismissed. I understand. Your a Romanist. You...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Of course He died. Was it His blood or not? (Heb.9:20-22) "Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    It says it is salvation. (Psalm 37:39) "But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD". The point here is that salvation doesn't just mean going to heaven. You have to determine which aspect of salvation is being addressed. And, note that it said "the salvation of the righteous'...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    It was Jesus's blood that was given...correct? Which resulted in His death. He was the price because it was His blood that paid for sin. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    This is not talking about heaven. It is talking about deliverance from their enemies here and now on earth. Thus salvation doesn't always mean going to heaven. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    I never said Jesus didn't pay the full price. He did. He paid the price for sin. He not only paid the price, He is the price. At it is only in Him that redemption occurs. Unless one is in Him, then there is no redemption. Unless one comes to Christ in faith, there is no redemption. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Yes I do. As I said in post #69, to redeem means to come into possession of that which you purchase. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    The truth of Scripture doesn't bother me. Your twisting of it does. Sorry, but I have answered these Scriptures several times. I read it real slowly, slowly. And guess what? You still didn't answer the question. What salvation are these verses in (Psalm 37:39-40) speaking of? Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Pay attention. I said Jesus paid it all. That doesn't mean all are redeemed. Jesus paid for it all, but He doesn't get all. Just like I said with the potatoes. You pay for 10 pounds but are only given 6 pounds. That means only 6 pounds are redeemed. Sort of 1st grade stuff. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Ah yes, your google list. I was wondering how long it would take before you presented it. I've already answered this list more than once. All it is now is a smoke screen used by the Romanists. And as usual you don't answer my question. What salvation is being spoken of in (Psalm 37:39-40)...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    No, Jesus paid the price for sin for everyone. That is not redemption. Redemption takes place only when the person comes to Christ and is then 'in Christ'. To redeem means you come into possession of that which you purchase. If you lay down 10 dollars for 10 pounds of potatoes, but you...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Exactly wrong. Redemption is not universal. Neither is salvation. The payment for sin is. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    A purely Romanist view of salvation. Very general. Very easy. (Psalm 37:39-40) " But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble. And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Pay attention. Jesus paid the price for all sin. That didn't purchase everyone's salvation. It provided for our salvation if indeed we come to Christ. You must be in Christ to be redeemed. Just because Christ paid for all sin does not mean all are redeemed. Those who reject are not...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Explain what you are calling salvation. I said before what I think you meant. Tell me what you mean. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Not true. Jesus paying the price for sin is not redemption. It is paying the price for sin so that all can be redeemed. But all are not. Jesus paid for all, because He paid for all sin. But all are not redeemed just because he paid for all sin. Only those in Christ are the redeemed...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    When you say we can lose our salvation, I think you mean going back to a state where we are lost and destined for hell. If that is the case and we can lose it by not repenting and confessing, which I disagree, can we get it back? Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Not true. Where did I create two redemptions? And you still haven't answered my question I asked you back in post #18, and several times later. What do you mean by "being forgiven of them"? Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Again, who is (1John 1:9) speaking to? Believers or unbelievers? Is Christ's intercession getting us back to a saved state, to where heaven is our destination, or is His intercession the result of us having already been saved where heaven is our destination? Stranger
