Bible Question: If one committed murder before accepting Christ as his Saviour, will Christ forgive his sin? The murder was not one of malice, but, it did happen. He accepted Christ afterwards, but, was very remorseful and sorry before becoming a Christian. Is he forgiven for this sin? |
Bible Answer: Taking a life, as in this life,(Gen:9:6) is judged as this life for this life, if the law calls for it, otherwise, taking a life as in this life is judged in the world by circumstances and situation. Such as protecting life from attack, or an accident. These usually depend on culture and laws. In the Lord Jesus Christ’s view all is forgivable, and forgiven on the Cross, in the saving of the soul, that the soul may be received into the Life of Christ. We in the flesh (this life) live in the place of sin, but it is His righteousness that delivers from death(Prov:11:4). And in the Lord Jesus there is no condemnation (Rom:8:1). ******** Mt:9:6: But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. ******** Note: that Jesus has the power to forgive sin, and I do believe that murder would be one of them. ********* Mt:12:31: 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. *********** Note: that Jesus didn’t say every sin but this one or that one He said ALL manner of sin. |
