BTW, your Scripture does NOT say ALL iniquities (past, present, future).
IMO, the iniquities of ALL believers up to the point of receiving the Spirit were taken care of.
There are NT verses written to the churches about present repentance bringing/keeping eternal life.
Yes it is obvious that you do not believe His work on the cross atoned for all of your sins. That is because religious people do not want His work to atone for the sins of the people because they wish to enslave others under their sins.
Isa 53:5-6
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
NKJV
You stated "BTW, your Scripture does NOT say ALL iniquities (past, present, future)."
The scripture does not limit His work on the cross to past sins only. Only you are doing that.
Yours is some kind of religion. It says God saved you up until now but then you have to keep yourself saved. When Jesus said it was finished He was really saying He just started the work of salvation now it is up to sinful man to stop sinning. This leaves me to wonder just what He set you free from..
