they have not yet committed/they have not yet atoned for?
Remission is conditioned upon repentance it’s what baptism is about

“Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,

and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭2:38-39‬ ‭KJV‬‬

If I robbed your house when you went on vacation and you came home and found me in video and then your mercy was huge and you forgave me completely ……do I take this as I’m free to take your things and you’ll never press charges ? Because you’re merciful do I now have crate Blanche over how I treat you and your things ?

jesus came and suffered and died for our sins so that we can repent and be saved from what we already deserve according to sin

We have to stop sinning or our sins aren’t yet remitted if I come rob you every time you go somewhere I’m showing that sin is alive and well in me I’m obeying it still god isn’t telling me to rob you he said “Thou shalt not steal “ but sin in me is tempting me to rob you “ he won’t press charges even if he catches me “

but if you forgave me the first time and then I realized wow that’s really something he forgave me I won’t be stealing from him anymore …….you and I aren’t going to have any more issues because you had mercy and I repented.

jesus forgives all sin but we sometimes won’t let it go is the issue we need to let it go and stop letting sin have dominion over us that is serving the devil when we sin

If our sins are remitted they aren’t there anymore and the proof is repentance.

without repentance remission of sins doesn’t exist

“I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭13:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Paul preached that also like this

“What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid!

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey;

whether of sin unto death, ( option 1)

or of obedience unto righteousness?”( option 2)
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6:15-16‬ ‭

if we are serving sin we’re servants of sin and will perish if we repent and turn to God were becoming servants of righteousness and the end is everlasting life

“But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6:22-23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

God has placed before us salvstion from the sins behind us that we cannot ever change he’s forgiven those who repent and believe the gospel now they need to listen to and heed his word and come to repentance he will always keep them safe and will always forgive thier mistakes but also he’s taught us that we cannot serve satans Will and Gods Will at the same time

If were living sinful lives they aren’t yet remitted because we won’t repent we all still have issues we need to deal with no one’s perfected yet but we have to come to an understanding eithon ourselves make the decision that we aren’t going to serve sin anymore we need to come to the indersrsnding of repentance

when we do something wrong if we know repentance we will feel it in our heart and will repent and learn nOt to keep doing it . It doesn’t mean we’re perfect and beyond making mistakes but when we sin as Christian’s we should feel it because n our heart and soul because it will cause repentance

“For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭7:10‬ ‭KJV‬‬


If do something wrong I can feel it and regret it this will cause me to repent and stop doing it . If I do something wrong and say “ well no big deal I’m forgiven “ we’ll never get to the repentance part

Sins can only be atoned for by blood...Hebrews 9:22.
“Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also? And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭7:47-50‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Sins can only be atoned for by blood.”

“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

a Jesus blood was determined to be shed from creation all forgivness is based upon his sacrifice Christian’s have three witnesses of remission of thier sins all three agree

“This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.”

the Spirit,

and the water,

and the blood: and these three agree in one.”

the water

“John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭1:4‬ ‭

The spirit

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
‭‭John‬ ‭6:63‬ ‭

“And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬


and the blood

“for this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭26:28‬ ‭

The answer is simple. How many of your sins were current when Jesus died? Of course, none. So all your sins are already paid for.
Maybe not. It depends on us.
Matt 6:14For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15
but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

So you do know, it is necessary for each one of us to atone for our sins. :love:
You really need to research what atonement is all about. Christ's sacrifice is our atonement
What we do is confess our sins & ACCEPT Christ's atonement for us by faith.
It sounds to me like you're trying to say the right things but don't understand what atonement means. At least I hope so.

JESUS DID NOT NOR WILL HE EVER ATONE FOR OUR PAST PRESENT, AND FUTURE SINS! THE BLOOD OF CHRIST DOES NOT REMIT SINS NOT ATONED FOR!

THERE IS NO BIBLE SCRIPTURE PROVING WE HAVE REMISSION OF SINS WE HAVE NOT ATONED FOR!
Book of John..

Assuring believers they can know they have eternal life by their belief in Jesus...who atones for their sins.

Why are so many not posting about the book of John on salvation subjects ?
