For elf, it will put SeaBass (or whoever) on ignore, and that person's responses here in the thread will not be seen by elf anymore. He will see a pop-up that says something like "this person's reply is blocked because this user is on your ignore list."
Thanks. . . .

Now the next 3 verses or group of verses (I added verses for clarification and context) do not deal with justification in any way period.

Justification-"A reckoning or counting as righteous" (Westminster Dictionary of Theological terms)

Matthew 16:27, Revelations 20:12 (13) and 2 Corinthians 5:10 (9-11) all deal with some type of reward we will receive when we come before Jesus. I guess somehow we will be judged and rewarded by the "good works" we have done in this life. Now I will state plainly "I have no idea what these rewards might be".

Now what these verses do describe should wake up any "sleeping" Christian. Since God tells us there is some type of reward in the end it really should kind of encourage us to do "good works".

But again in these verses they do not describe justification by works. And they do not condemn any Christian who doesn't or cannot do any "good works".

Sorry I am late responding. I haven't forgotten. I will get this done if not today, tomorrow for sure.

If he also has you on his ignore list, he will get the same pop-up message saying your reply is blocked. There is an option to view his post WITHOUT taking him off ignore, but that's only effective if you read it and dont respond to it. lol :)

hmmm. lemesee...

at the right time Christ died for the ungodly...

Rom 5:6
For while we were still helpless (literally 'without adequate strength'), at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

because no one has adequate strength to clean themselves up enough to be saved.

Heb 9:22 "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission."
The Jews rejected Christ and His shed blood, so the Hebrew writer is making a comparison between shedding of blood in the OT to the shedding of Christ's blood in the NT.
That's true.

This isn't true:
"For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins." Heb.10:3
Animal sacrifice never removed sin from anyones life. It was repentance (caused by the animal sacrifice) that removed sin.

so why/how could the Jews object to the shedding of Christ's blood to forgive sins.
You're not reading the scripture I'm posting proving what I'm telling you. You're scanning over my posts without applying the scriptures in them to what we've both been taught all our lives.

Yes I know. So stop believing that God viewed Christ as sinfull on the cross...like the unbelievers did.

If you ever understand this concept (instead of the one that has been that has been tattooed in your brain and still is, as it was in my brain also), then we can talk.

This is why Jesus came preaching repentance and doing miracles....even rising from the dead People got strengthened by the work of our Savior. Although, it's possible to view without strength as meaning people are totally incapable of believing anything, but that heresy will lead to ideas like God condemning innocent babies.

Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 1 Pe.1:21

Yep...thats how God puts the whammy on us.

Hey no worries gator. I figured you were just busy. It's not like we need to rush through it. In fact it's better if we don't rush.

No, the sacrifice did not cause repentance, but the sacrifice was ineffective without repentance,
because it was offered in unbelief.

The sacrifice was the penalty for sin (Lev 5:6, 7, 14)
and it only covered their sin (Ro 4:7),
it did not remit sin, take them away Heb 10:4).

No doubt.....Like it clearly states...ALL OUR RIGHTEOUSNESSES are AS FILTHY RAGS and OUR INIQUITIES like the wind have taken us away....OUR works will never be good enough to save us or keep us saved period as our eternal salvation rests squarely upon Jesus and his work and HIS faith which satisfied the heavenly FATHER!

Understanding how THEY viewed our Savior makes all the difference. If you miss this simple point, you'll be led into major error. Remember this...they thought he was being punished by God for His sins.
Read the scriptures with this in mind.
The Scriptures are not to be read with an unbeliever's interpretation in mind.
They are to be read with the word of God in mind:


"Above all you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about

by the prophet's own interpretation (understanding).


For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man,

but men spoke as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit." (2Pe 1:20-21)

It matters not what the prophet thought.
Yes I know. That's why THE WORD OF GOD SAYS unbelievers would view His Son as sinful.
Non-responsive.

Is 53:5 states:

"the punishment that brought us peace was upon him."

That's exactly what the Holy Spirit carried Isaiah along to say.

What Isaiah thought about it is neither stated, nor does it matter.

God never viewed Jesus as sinful for any reason.
It's not about "viewing" Jesus as sinful, it is about Jesus himself bearing our sins in his body on the tree (2Pe 2:24).

Your unbelief is showing.

Yes it did, because He rose from the dead. All His miracles (His entire life as a living sacrifice) caused some people to repent:

"This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him."
Repentance is accomplished by hearing Gods word and believing:

"For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

"The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

People repent because they believe.

The sacrifice was offered so people would believe:

"And now I have told you before it (My death and resurrection) come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

"And he (the Apostle John) that saw it (the death of Jesus) bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

All of the sacrifices God commanded in the OT were for the purpose of causing repentance and faith in God. From Abraham offering Isaac, to Moses and Aaron...all of it. So was Jesus sacrifice.
You're misreading every scripture you cite.
