Jesus died for my sins?

Question

How is it that Jesus died for MY sins almost 2000 years before I was even born?

Since he already payed for my sins; then why should i even worry about burning for eternity? My sins have already been payed for in advance, right?

Answer 1

ha ha ha, yes another weird religious oxymoron!

Answer 2

> How is it that Jesus died for MY sins almost 2000 years before I was even born?

When Adam sinned and began to die as God said he would, all mankind was sentenced to death along with him. (Genesis 2:16, 17)

Why did God require the death of a perfect man? Well, what was Jehovah God's penalty for Adam if he sinned? Was it not death? (Genesis 2:16, 17) "The wages sin pays is death," wrote the apostle Paul. (Romans 6:23) Adam paid for his sin with his own death. He was given life, he chose to sin, and he died as a penalty for his sin. (Genesis 3:19)

A death was needed to atone for Adam and Eve sins.

> My sins have already been payed for in advance?

Many people have been told that "believing on Jesus" is a single act and that our faith does not have to be strong enough to prompt obedience.

But the Bible disagrees.

Jesus did not say that people who begin the Christian course are saved. Instead, he said: "He that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved." (Matthew 10:22)

The Bible likens our Christian course to a race, with salvation being the prize at its end. And it urges: "Run in such a way that you may attain it."—1 Corinthians 9:24.

Thus, "accepting Christ" involves far more than just accepting the blessings that Jesus' superlative sacrifice offers.

Obedience is required.

The apostle Peter says that judgment starts "with the house of God," and adds: "Now if it starts first with us, what will the end be of those who are not obedient to the good news of God?" (1 Peter 4:17)

So we must do more than simply hear and believe. The Bible says that we must "become doers of the word, and not hearers only,"—James 1:22.

Answer 3

God knew you would be born, and that you would be a sinner, just like everyone else, so he made suitable provisions for your welfare, and for the welfare of your eternal soul, through his universal church.

The Catholic Church celebrates the Mass, through which God's original work of redemption continues to be carried out, for you and for many, all around the world, 365 days per year, every hour of every day.

But this is a limited time offer. Better claim it before your time runs out.

Answer 4

Because his father is omniscience

his father told him that what kind of sin you are going to commit.

so commnit all possible sin, just before you die , remember to said Jesus is a lord.
It's like a FORMAT command in Computer Term, all of your sin will gone.

I wish my goverment will take this to consideration. Whatever crime I committed, i would not be punished because I believe in the goverment ( Yes I voted )

Answer 5

Jesus is the eternal Son of God, that's why his sacrifice is sufficient for all who will believe on Him for all time.

Hebrews 10:11 And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, 13 waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. 14 For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

1 Timothy 1:15 The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. 16 But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.

The Bible clearly teaches that God justifies sinners by faith. Mankind fell way back in the Garden of Eden because Adam and Eve didn't trust God and listened to the Devil instead. Now to be reconciled to God we have to demonstrate our trust in Him through faith in the gift of his Son Jesus.

Ephesians 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ--by grace you have been saved-- 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Answer 6

I'll make this as simple as possible.
Adam and Eve were our [ yours and mine] first parents. Both of us are descended from them.
When they were created, God had no intention for them to die. God planned that they live without death...forever.
but god warned them that if they disobeyed, the punishment would be that they WOULD die.
(Genesis 2:16-17) And Jehovah God also laid this command upon the man: “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. 17 But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.”

And we have all been dying ever since. A bit like inheriting a bad gene.

God's plans are never wrong and He still wants us to live without death.
He has promised this.
(Revelation 21:4) And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

This benefit to us has been 'paid' for by Jesus' death, 2,000 years ago.
It will come true in the very near future.
After wickedness is removed from the earth.
(Psalm 37:9) For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.

(Psalm 37:11) But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.

Answer 7

The same way that He died for mine; naked and nailed to a wooden cross in front of a bloodthirsty, vintictive crowd full of backstabbers.

Answer 8

Because he died from everyones sins in the present and in the future.

Or maybe he just never existed or was not really a holy man.
You be the judge.

Answer 9

he knew you before you were born and he knows the choices you have made but he loves you and wants you to know him as well
