If you die and found out that Jesus did not die for your sins and you will be held accountable for all you did

Question

who can you blame but yourself?

For everyone else there are other books of life, that are opened at the great white throne judgement. Where the dead are judged according there works. The sea delivers up the dead & they are judged according to there works, and death & hell delivered up the dead that are in them, and they are judged according to their works.

works are the only salvation!

works are the only salvation!

Answer 1

It won't happen, Jesus did.

Answer 2

When one is saved from their sin, one loves Jesus much. The love of God is in ones heart. So works are unto the Lord out of love for Him. Faith, hope & love are everlasting. I believe God's Word is true, because He has given me a Spirit of truth who is not a liar & leads me into all truth. Without faith it is impossible to please God, for those that come to Him must believe that He Is, and is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. God promises to never leave us or forsake us. Part of believing God Is, is believing He loves us with an everlasting love & nothing can take us out of His loving hands.

For those that believe in Jesus Christ there names are written in the Lambs book of Life & they are part of the first resurrection. And the second death has no power over them. They will rule & reign with Christ for 1000 years.

For everyone else there are other books of life, that are opened at the great white throne judgement. Where the dead are judged according there works. The sea delivers up the dead & they are judged according to there works, and death & hell delivered up the dead that are in them, and they are judged according to their works.

Death & hell are then thrown into the lake of fire. Then those whose names are not written in the book of life are cast into the lake of fire, this is the second death.

Answer 3

If I believed all that stuff and got up there and St Peter gave me that news, I just think I'd be royally P*ssed off! Why would a person blame them selves if they had, had that 'died for your sins' stuff drilled into their heads all their lives. I also think all the blameless ones would be held accountable for that horrible lie.

At least, they would have to let the little children in, and to hell with that being saved myth. If I wanted one thing to be true about that heaven stuff is that all children would be opened with open arms, no matter what religion. They are without sin! So they don't need Jesus' intervention to return to their maker.

Answer 4

What do we have to lose? We lived a life for God...trying not to sin...being morally good for the most part...I totally believe that God did die for our sins, but if he didn't, who cares? Why would you need to blame someone? Being a Christian is not risking anything..yes..you give up your life to believe in the living God, but if we're wrong, what do we have to lose? A non-Christian has eternal life in heaven to lose...if atheists looked at the choice they had in front of them, they'd change it. Just something to think about.

Answer 5

Won't happen...

but... think about it...

I give 10% of my income to the Church to build buildings to promote better behavior...

I give money to help the poor and the hungry and the homeless...

I participate in activities to help widows, orphans, the sick, and the incarcerated...

I try my best to live the commandments...

I recognize my own weaknesses... and I will have to live with them...

I don't have anything major to account for... how about you? I have a few things on the good side... how about you? I have a few people that will testify of my help and kindness... how about you? I have only one or two that will testify of things that I did wrong to them... how about you?

sins of omission are my worst I think.

Answer 6

Nevermind that, what would a body blame for the fact that he broke God's first commandment by worshipping an idol in the shape of a man who claimed to be God?

Answer 7

Unless you have accepted Christ and then lead your life as God intended you are held accountable anyway. Basically I'm going to hell with lots of other people here.

Answer 8

You are accountable for your sins. You can't just do anything you want because Jesus dies for your sins. You will still be judged in heaven.

Answer 9

Every single person would fall short and be sent to the 2nd death. Thank goodness we're saved from this.

Answer 10

Jesus literally dying for your sins is a misundertanding of the New Testament narrative. It has absolutely no sense, rhyme or reason to it, because it reads something like this:-

An omnipotent all-powerful God designed and built the world according to his liking and populated it with people also of his own making.

This God then gets miffed with the people he made because they violated laws that he also set up - which begs the questions why did he make people in such a way as to break his laws, and if he had no choice in that, then why set laws which, being omniscient, he knew his creation would break and which would piss him off. This would be the act of a deranged God.

Anyway, that aside, God then chooses to come down as his own son in order to a) teach his people the correct way, and b) to die a torturous death at the hands of his own creation in order to absolve his own creation in his own eyes of the crime of breaking laws of his own making. Now this is beyond deranged it is psychotic. It quite simply doesn't work.

A more rational interpretation of the New Testament narrative worthy of a God worth worshipping is the following.

God creates the world and populates it with people. He gives people consciousness and freewill that they may know and appreciate his creation in a like manner to the way he does himself, but with the freewill came side effects.

After time God finds that the people are unhappy. Instead of enjoying his creation, they are being mean to each, killing and torturing etc.

So, in his infinite Love for his own creation he comes down to show them the way. Now he could have just dictated to them the way, but, putting his creation under an oppressive law is not his style, he wants his people to enjoy his creation not think of it as a prison.

So, what is a God to do..........answer, "performance art". God comes down as a perfect being, pure as the driven snow, butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. The situation among men being as bad as it was, God knows this will ultimately end with his torture death at the hands of men which he is willing to suffer for the epiphany he hopes it will ignite in humanity's mind.

The post crucifixion satori that humanity is supposed to go through is "what the **** just happened here? What did we just do? What are we like?".

The whole point of the Passion was to inspire "self reflection"., for humanity to consider its own nature and aspire to be something better.

God didn't die to pay a blood atonement for humanity's debt to himself for which humanity would then be in more debt. He did it as a work of art that provokes introspection so that truth may be find within oneself.

The whole debt thing is garbage logic void of any beauty or creative imagination worthy of a God.

Sin, the ten commandments and hell:
These are not laws, crimes and the punishments that go with them.

The ten commandments are recommendations that if followed will help prevent ones life from becoming miserable - if followed suffering can be minimized.

Sins are examples of types of behaviours that "may" lead to personal suffering, either by the person who commits the sin or others who are affected by the sin.

Hell - hell is the state of personal inner turmoil that "may" result from not following the advice of the 10 commandments and from committing sins.

God loves you, and wants to help you. He did not mean to add to your problems by heaping a heavy dose of guilt complexes on top of everything else. That's what misguided men who didn't get the message like to do.

In the final analysis, this is only a story, which should work because of the beauty that's in it, but, some loathsome individuals have twisted and perverted its message into one that is ugly, hateful, turns man against his brother and ultimately leads to the devastation of God's creation.

To answer your question - you are paying for your sins now. In death you will be absolved of everything.

Time to get with the program people.

Answer 11

I asked the same question some time ago. I think we will be held accountable for our own mistakes in life.
