So what does He do, put those prayers of sin on the heads of the ones that don't pray? You can't tell me you'd blame Him for all your sin, nor shirk responsibility for it would you?
The bible really says to just acknowledge your transgression, stop sinning, and pay 20% in tithes and offerings...yes, 20%, (to make up for all the lies, we pay double) and come to think of it, we in USA pay that much in taxes now...hmmm...Wasn't that the figure Joseph in Egypt came up with to save the country from famine? Could it be?...
Well, I tried this and Lo and Behold! My debts started evaporating and my amends were made and I started doing better and found better job and bought nicer clothes and another car and IRS is paid off setting a good example for others and buying a studio ...and...and...and...Praise God! Its a miracle! A MIRACLE!!!
Get the picture yet?

I am dead to sin and alive in Christ..because sin has no power over me anymore, Jesus took that debt and freed me from those shackles the moment I receive his loving mercy. Peace

Hey. Well, I allowed Jesus to pay my debt a long long time ago and I am pretty happy about it. We are dead to sin, but ALIVE with Christ so, yes. And peoples, please don't criticize others' faiths. And if you are going to criticize, it would be best if you learned the facts.

He paid a debt he did not owe,
I owe a debt I could not pay
Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay.
Lay it all over to the Lord.

Good question and to the point. I've thankfully accepted Jesus' payment for my sins and look forward to living eternally with Him in Heaven!! God bless you

I am without sin right now. No debt to be paid.

Since Paul says we are all buried with Christ, His death to sin, is our death to sin. His death doesn't mean that we escape death, but that death doesn't have the last word. If Jesus didn't resurrect, our faith would be in vain as Paul says elsewhere.

I've never sinned. Sin is a backwards concept only believed in by religious fanatics who live in a fantasy world.
