Bible Question:
What does it mean 'perfect for all time?' When does this happen? Please use scripture to support your answer. |
Bible Answer: 'perfect for all time'... "This involves a perfect standing before God in the righteousness of Christ (see Rom. 3:22; Phil. 3:8,9)" (1) "When does this happen?" "'perfect'. This term is used repeatedly in Hebrews to refer to salvation. See Heb. 5:14; 7:11; 9:9. As much as those living under the law desired to approach God, the Levitical system provided no way to enter His holy presence (cf. Psalm 15:1; 16:11; 24:3,4)."
