while Jesus payed for our sins on the cross, the bible does says that what we sow, we will also reap, in this life time.
the price that Jesus payed will get us into Heaven, but there is still a price to pay for the wrongs that we do here on earth, I am 63 years old and praying for crop failure.

One can never pay for their sins not in a million years...What is grace and mercy? Man will sin until he dies. If one says he is without sin he calls God a lier!
1 John 1:8-9.If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us of all sins.

Christians believe that Jesus paid for our sins on the Cross.
Those who believe know that we are saved by the grace of God, through faith in Him and believing in Jesus sacrifice.
We may have to suffer the consequences of our sins, but there is no way for us to 'pay' for our sins. How would we pay? Through suffering poverty, sickness, loss? You could live for over 100 years and sin throughout the your lifespan (you are only human) and you'd still come up short. Jesus' sacrifice covers those sins.

Jesus went and suffered on the cross 2000 years ago for our sins. On the part where Jesus is on the Cross and says "Father Why have you Forsaken Me?" It is because Jesus has all of our sins on him and God had to turn his back on his own Son because God is so perfect he cannot bear sin. That is why the Bible tells us to Repent of our sin...the word repent means to turn away from and don't do it again...God knows we make mistakes and we can't be perfect but we can try our hardest to not sin. Accept Jesus into your heart and he will take your sin and forgive you.

It's not sins you pay for, it's crimes. That's why we have prisons and death rows. Sins are man-made religious concepts, and the idea of paying for sins is also made up baloney. For example: out of the 10 commandments, only three are punishable under our laws....perjury, murder, and theft. The other seven commandments are mere moral guidelines.

We don't have to pay for our sins. Jesus shedding His Holy Blood did that for us. Only through Him is the debt paid.
For more information see the New Testament.

We don't have to pay for our sins, Jesus Christ did that for us when he died on the cross. He loved us so much and he Knew a sacrifice would have to be made to cover our sins,and he knew we could't do it ourselfs. So he did it for us.:"no one gets to the Father[God] except through Me"[Jesus] All we have to do is believe that Jesus died for us,and accept the gift of salvation. We could never do enough to pay for all our sins.I am so glad Jesus loved me so much that He was willing to die on that cross to save me from the punishment I should have recieved for my sins.

We cannot "pay for our sins". The only one who has paid for them is Jesus Christ. If a person dies unrepentant of sin and not believing in Jesus, they will stand before God still with their sins and will not enter the kingdom of God.

You can't pay for your own sins.
God had to do it for you and He did through Jesus.
Now you can receive a pardon for your sins as you surrender your life to God through Christ and follow Him.

Jesu paid for your sins and forgive you. But you should repent and stop doing bad things. If you believe in him and repent you will be saved.
