How can a gentile atone for his sin??

Question

Can a gentile still live a righteous life in the eyes of G-d??

Answer 1

Yes, but it is an 24/7 job, just learn to pick yourself up when you fall and let God dust you off

Answer 2

Gentile atonement is a Paul theory. It doesn't match at all with the OT God who spent 4000 years keeping the jews separate from the Gentiles. Especially when you considder the pagan ritual that exists throughout Christianity today.

God spent a great deal of time keeping the Jews clean from pagan influence, and 100 years after Paul opens the door, Christianity became more Pagan than Jewish in practice. Makes you wonder whether Paul had it right.

Answer 3

God has made provision for our sin, and our being held in bondage to it; by giving us His Son. Yeshua ha'Moshiach is the MESSIAH for Jew and Gentile; all one has to do is believe GOD's WRITTEN promises, and sincerely pray for understanding of the scriptures. Zechariah 12, Psalm 22, and Isaiah 53 are all great Old Testament examples of the coming Messiah; and all were fulfilled and came to pass with perfect accuracy. Most Christians, of course....are in fact "gentiles", and know Him as JESUS; but Yeshua is His real name. The ONLY way to even begin to live righteous in the eyes of GOD is to accept the promised messiah's living sacrifice, and then ask Him to live in your heart, as LORD over you life; daily submitting to the lead of the Holy Spirit.

Apart from Yeshua's sacrifice and resurrection; there is nothing that any JEW OR GENTILE can "do" to earn thier way back into fellowship with YHWH; all of our 'good deeds or good works" are as filthy rags before our HOLY GOD! He has clearly told all of us in His Word; what is required for us to once again regain that which was lost when sin entered the human race through Eve ( and then Adam's) sin of disobedience; sin is likewise simply DOUBTING what GOD has told us, what HE promises likewise.
Yeshua is the ONLY way, truth and Life.....without coming to Him, we cannot ever have the true, fullness of right relationship with Father GOD as GOD intends for all of us!
Blessings in Yeshua ha'Moshiach, Jesus our Mediator!

Answer 5

No one can live a righteous life at all....

This is why Christ had to come.
Salvation was for the Jew first....and then for the Gentile
(Read Romans)

Answer 6

Yes, I am.
To live a righteous life in the life of God accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, then follow the intructions in the Bible. there is no other way.

Answer 7

The first thing that someone should be considering is whether the idea of sin is actually real.

If God is supposed to be perfect how could She have made anything or anyone that wasn't perfect.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.

First it assumes a God who is too incompetent to organize a simple educational field excursion and figure out a way to get all of the students home safely.

How likely is this that God would not be smart enough to come up with a plan for our salvation that is going to work 100 percent of the time?

It also assumes that God must have created us imperfect if we are sinners.

One might assume that God would be able to create someone perfect each and every time if he chose to. Assuming God is capable of this, then it follows logically that we must be perfect creations if we are actually creations of this perfect God.

Unless of course you are saying that God chose to create us imperfect.

If God created us imperfect then anything that may go wrong is Gods fault, not ours. This seems a bit illogical at best so I think that we need to assume that What God creates would have to be perfect.

If this is the case and Gods creations are perfect, then nothing that we can do could change what God created perfect and make it imperfect unless we think that we are more powerful than God is.

How likely is it that we the creation could be more powerful than the creator. I personally find this idea somewhat amusing, and a bit absurd.

Religion tells us that God is perfect. If this is true then it could hardly be logically for Gods creations to be considered to be anything less than perfect.

If this is the case and we are perfect creations of a perfect God then Nothing that we can ever do could possibly change this perfection that God willed, unless we were so powerful that our choices could override and change the will of God.

How likely is that????

Think about it.

Anyone who isn't a Jew is a gentile.

So the answer would be....yes, they do it all the time.
