Hello Folks ) My name is Mike. I have some questions I'm hoping someone might be interested in discussing with me. I recently received this in an email from a friend:
'propitiation" is all about. It changed the judgement seat of the old testament into the mercy seat of the new testament. Before we had to follow the law. In fact, as gentiles we wouldn't ever have had a chance. But with His death and resurrection we now do; it is so we can make it to Heaven too. No matter how good we are here, we still have the sentence of death on us. Just like being on death row... it doesn't matter how good we are there ... we still are going to get the punishment... unless we get our sentence commuted... but with "commuting" we can still be retried, brought back and executed. But as God's Son, the one man without sin, Jesus was put to death for me and thee, so it is an "Absolute Pardon", the "propitiation". Once we accept Him as Lord and Savior we have forever secured our home in Heaven. We can walk through the Eternal door; without Him, no access...'
I need some help here. At least in part because I do not believe this, not a single shred of it. I'm having a real hard time accepting that God will/would forsake any willing, Spirit guided, God loving person....
Help! Mike
