1 | When is a sinner counted "not guilty"? | Rom 5:9 | Radioman2 | 79203 | ||
You write: "If justification (God's act of declaring one righteous) comes (and only begins) when I believe, does this mean that God changes his whole view of me just because of something I did (to believe)? Does it mean that God has a totally different way of seeing me while in unbelief and then changes his way of seeing me now that I believe? Such concept seem to suggest that by believing I am able to cause God to see me differently. How does this makes sense to you?" No, God does not change his whole view of you just because of something you did. No, by believing you are not able to cause God to see you differently. There is nothing you can do to cause God to see you differently. You are not justified by anything you did. If you are justified, it will be by what Christ did when he shed his blood for you on the cross. Justified by His blood AMPLIFIED Romans 5:9 Therefore, since we are now justified (acquitted, made righteous, and brought into right relationship with God) by Christ's blood, how much more [certain is it that] we shall be saved by Him from the indignation and wrath of God. |

2 | When is a sinner counted "not guilty"? | Rom 5:9 | Darcy | 79252 | ||
Jesus destroyed sin on the cross. Sin today won't get you into hell (the second death) That is the gift. What will get you into hell is not believing in Christ. The one sin that is unforgivable is the blasemy of the Holy Spirit. Matt. 12:31,32 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. (KJV) One way to blasphemy the Holy Spirit is not to except His conviction when He calls you to except Christ. |

"Jesus destroyed sin on the cross. Sin today won't get you into hell (the second death) That is the gift. What will get you into hell is not believing in Christ." Actually, Jesus told the Pharisees the following: "Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins." --John 8:24 Those who do not believe in Christ do not have the guilt and penalty of their sin taken away. --Joe! |
