would you trust someone who says "Jesus died so i don't get punished for my sins"?

Question

so that mean that a person can commit any sin he/she wants, can steal, can lie. so a person is not afraid of getting punished by the sins he/she commits. since Jesus already died for our sins! then why bother to worry about getting punished for it.

and if christians still asking for forgiviness and repent their sins, then what was the point of Jesus death ?

Answer 1

I trust that alot of men died in wars to give me my freedom.

Answer 2

No I would not trust a person who thought that way.
Luckily that's not how it works in Christianity.
We, as humans, are sinful in nature, we cant help it. The Jews had to give sacrifices for their sins for forgiveness. In order to stay right with God. However, when Jesus died, he gave us the opportunity to be forgiven of our sin w/o having to do those sacrifices. This means, that we go forth and sin no more. (or at least try our darnedest to not do so). Because when we accept Christ, we die to our old ways.

Romans 6:1 What should we say then? Should we keep on sinning so that God's grace can increase? 2 Not at all! As far as sin is concerned, we are dead. So how can we keep on sinning? 3 All of us were baptized into Christ Jesus. Don't you know that we were baptized into his death?

Answer 3

If you are forgiven of some wrong does this mean that you are ridded of its consequences? Im afraid not for you see in real life situations the law says that 'you do the crime you pay the time" and this law has no controll over whether or not the offender is forgiven of the crime. So although someone might commit a crime and is forgiven by the victim, he must still suffer the consequences of his actions.

When a child stay out after curfew and the parent yells at him and say you are grounded, does this mean that this action is being held against him? No it simply means that although we might do stupid things we can be forgien but we must also suffer the consequences.

This is the same way it is for Biblical teachings.

The Bible even endorse this by saying Galations 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

9And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

The Bible also clearly states that

Isaiah 64:6 (King James Version) "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away."

But we cannot find salvation by doing good but rather through faith and submission to the will of Christ. Consequently, whether we do good or bad if we are wieghed on the scale of righteousness, we would all be found wanting and be doomed to enternal death.

Jesus came for this sole purpose, to give us a way out. That if we sin we can always ask for forgiveness and if we are forgiven then our slate is wiped clean. This is conditional, on the terms that we do as he commands.

We are not working for a temporal freedom because in this life we must suffer the consequences of our actions, but we are working for what comes after this life. Our faith in God will determine this to all extent.


God bless

Answer 4

You are a classic example of getting caught on one word and running with it. You look at the small paint smugs in the corner and forget the whole picture.

Jesus came. Why? To give us life and life more abundantly. he come to give us a crisp clean life...free from the punishment of sin. So he gave us the word a book of directions on how to cure the sin issues. We are to guard our hearts because out of it flows the issues of our lives. We have issues. That is what causes us to worry. So we our obediant to his word and we act on it by repenting,and acknowledging and loving him.
We confess, he knows but out of obediance and respect we do what is said in the word. The world has jobs and if they want to keep their job they do what ever the boss directs them to do.You have no choice. Often we become slaves to our jobs.We complain but the boss better not hear it ,you will get fired. Then who will bring home the bacon. Working long hours. We do not give God one minute of our time.Yet we got a complaint. We have the nerve.Isaiah 58.But with God we have a choice. Jesus said fear not. We make God and life experiences hard but it is simple. Pray for understanding. Knowledge is the key that unlocks the door. Jesus stands on the other side waiting. The grass does get greener on the other side. Spend some time with the object of our effection. Jesus and the word.

Answer 5

Jesus did not sin while he was on this earth he was Perfect. God asks Christians to be Christ like, he knows we are not perfect and we will sin but he wants Christians to try hard not to sin. When they do sin (because they are human, not perfect), they take it to god, learn from it and turn from it, and ask for his strength to never do it again. Then God gives us opportunities to test our faith and turn from the sin. Its all in God's plan that is the best I can explain it but He knows what he's doing.

Answer 6

you should believe them, yet while that bothers you than its in all probability no longer a reliable theory to be extra effective than an aquiatance to this individual. To me, this guy or woman purely sounds like their perplexed approximately their ideals, and have a broader outlook on what ought to truly be. and whether its no longer gods doings, in the event that they scouse borrow and cheat and lie, karma will finally chew em in the ****. And in case you cant have self assurance in something you cant see, then why would you complication a pair of guy youve under no circumstances met while the government can lock you up invariably. the ingredient of Jesus' dying is everybodies very own opinion. We werent there.. we wont ever comprehend why, have self assurance what you desire to have self assurance approximately his dying.

Answer 7

religion is discussed here, and we get deeeep ,, but life is lived , quietly... talk about god on the outside and find yourself standing alone before you know what happened,,, we all hold on to the little things we hear from time to time ,, but too much information to some is harmfull,, suicide claims way too many of our best people ,, sure they souldn't have been on earth in the first place , too deep too good too vulnerable too sweet ,, too eager to lern ,,, once you know something , you can't unknow it .. jesus kept it simpole ,, HE knew what he was doing . He was killed because we feared he was satan ,thats why he died...

Answer 8

No, I wouldn't trust them, nor would I consider them a real christian. A real christian will try to live by Jesus' teachings, not just use one line to try to get away with doing what they know is wrong.

Answer 9

Jesus did die to save us from our sins. However, that doesn't give us a free ride! You can't behave any way you want, and still expect to go to heaven! The bible is very clear - in order to be forgiven for your sins and go to heaven, one must accept Christ as their savior and believe in Him. People who don't accept him, or who doubt his existence or the reason for his death, aren't forgiven of their sins and aren't going to heaven.

If a person commits all the sins you listed, they need to ask forgiveness for them. They need to believe in Jesus Christ and be born-again.

Answer 10

it is said that Jesus was wounded to heel us! to me it seems as if a drunkard sitting at a bar calls for another shot and says, "this ones on Jesus because he had already paid for it!".

be intelligent in asking Q cz 'question is half answer'
