This is a false gospel
To believe that Jesus came to save us from the penalty of sin only is a dire mistake. Jesus came to save us from sin itself, and thereby saving us from the penalty of sin. The word tells us in Hebrews 10:26-31, and 2nd Peter 2:20-22 that those that continue in sin after coming into faith with Jesus will not only suffer in Hell with unbelievers, but will suffer a greater damnation than those that have never believed.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
Romans 6
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Romans 6:18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
first of all, i didn't make the qualification
only. i was simply trying to insert The Gospel into your "Christ as example" doctrine.
and none of the passages you quoted say what you want them to say: suffering in hell.
Hebrews is describing jews who came close enough to see and experience the message, but turned back to Judaism.
John is presenting the Gospel. thank you. it's Wonderful.
and do you believe Paul achieved sinlessness?
the issue is not shall we continue in a life of sin (continually and willfully, God forbid), though that is the only ledge the perfectionists have to stand on. all Christians know they are being transformed.
the issue is, have you yourself achieved sinlessness? if your answer is yes, you do not yet understand the Law, nor the righteousness of God according to Law.
this is why we need a righteousness not our own according to Law, but rather the Righteousness of God apart from the Law.....and that received by Grace through Faith in.....what?
