If Jesus died for our sins, does that mean that...?

Question

...I can drive a plane in a building and kill thousands of people and not be responsible for it because someone else will be responsible for it?

Or...

I'm I accountable for my own actions/sins and will be punished for it?

Answer 1

no hon jesus did not die for ur sins, noone can. you will be accountable for ur action and will be judged on the day of judgement. if someone was to die for everyones sin then everyone would do bad....why worry. its like u telling ur lil bro to go steal ur dads money and then say its ok ill get blamed for it. does it make sense. so no we will be punished for our own sins. take care sis.

Answer 2

Don't you just hate how people take the bible into their own hands, interpret it their own way, and tell you that YOU are wrong for thinking of it like that? I do. I also love when people know the Bible cover-to-cover and quote it all the time. What you are asking is a point that I have been trying to make for years. The only faux pas in your question is the suicide involvement. That constitutes a deadly sin and thus, eternity in hell.... However, if you were to cut the fuel line from a plane and it happened to crash into a building because you messed with the navigation system, you'd be fine. All you would have to do is go to church, obtain plenary indulgence, and walk away scot-free. Delicious religion: so many loopholes, so little time!

Answer 3

Idealy
In the scenerio that you have illustrated: that person would be probably accountable to God and his profession of being a believer in Christ would be suspect to say the very least.

Answer 4

You are accountable of course. However, God will not judge you until your death. Which if you flew a plane into a building would be immediately and you are screwed.
If you are making some lame brained attempt to compare the WTC incident to Christianity, those where muslims they didn't believe in Jesus. Why do you have to come on here and be so utterly disrespectful, not only to Christianity, but to the WTC survivors and families? So upon your death you will find out for yourself if you are responsible for your sins. Good luck!

Answer 5

Based on popular belief as long as you as asked forgiveness with your last breath you would be forgiven. This may not seem fair but neither is the idea of one chosen being dying for the sin of all mankind. It is relative to the teachings of the New Testament and is frequently stated that if you confess your sins they will be forgiven - there is never a relative statement to severity or to time limit. All sins are forgiven freely (Acts 5:31; 13:38; 1 John 1:6-9). The sinner is by this act of grace for ever freed from the guilt and penalty of his sins. This is the peculiar prerogative of God (Ps. 130:4; Mark 2:5).
There is the argument that you must also be baptized but again the rules seem vague.And Peter said to them, 'Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins . . .'" (Acts 2:38, Revised Standard Version).
Hope this helped.

Answer 6

Forgiveness of sins was made for all. But no one receives it without being in Christ, being born again. Driving a plane into a building to kill....is not being led by the God who created the world and sent His son to redeem us.

SO, IT'S YOUR SECOND OPTION:

Heb 10:26-27

26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.
(from New International Version)

Answer 7

Jesus did not die for our sin, this thinking is absurb and is the reason why Christianity has fallen short of the Knowledge of God. For someone to die for your sins, the laws of nature would have to be re-written.

Everyone is responsible for their own sin. That means if you run a plane into a building, you will be responsible for it. And, it may not be in this lifetime, it may be in the next lifetime when you have to reincarnate on the Earth again to redeem for the sin.

People often ask "why are babies plagued with all kinds of diseases, why would God do that?" But I'm here to tell you that babies are not innocent themselves. They had previous lives and in that previous life, they were probably serial killers or rapists and when they died, their sins followed them. In short, they reaped what they sow.

This is one reason why Jesus cannot die for our sins. How can we understand the errors of our ways if we cannot take responsiblity for it? Wouldn't we just keep on sinning? God will not want that?

And for you non-believers out there, your time will come.

Answer 8

When we say Jesus died for our sins the way I interprit that is that he gave me a chance to be without sin at birth. From then on, as he also gave us free will, it's up to ME to make decisions to stay that way. Kind of like when a teacher gives the whole class an A right off the bat. You learn quickly that it's much harder to KEEP the A than to actually earn it yourself.

Answer 9

Jesus died for all sins that you are truly sorry for and repent of (meaning turn away from, to never do again). So you would be held accountable for this.

Answer 10

You are responsible for all your sins. Will you be punished for all your sins? That depends. Someone took your punishment for you, but not your responsibility. You can still choose to be punished for all your sins though.

Answer 11

You can fly a plane in a building but you will be accountable for your actions come judgment day. But if you ask for forgiveness and truly know you were wrong and are sorry then you can be forgiven.
