I'd like to be there when you say this to God's face.This is absolutely wrong.
Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.
-Romans 9:18
Who said there was no forgiveness under the Law?The law was a contract between God and Israel. Those who were under the law were bound to it, and God was bound to it. God has magnified his word above his name. His word can never be broken, as Jesus said. So you cannot have God forgiving sin when there is no basis for forgiveness. That would make God double minded, and his word untrustworthy.
If people are going to deny this, they are on very shaky ground. What's stopping God from just forgiving everyone?
Why even send Jesus to be a sacrifice for sin if God can just decide to forgive sins because he's God?
People were forgiven their sins when they offered the proscribed sacrifices under the law. But not for Sin. Jesus' sacrifice was more than atonement; it was propitiation. His sacrifice is permanent and for Sin, not just sins.
Jesus forgave this woman's sins, not her Sin.
You're a moron.If Jesus was a messiah operating under law, and a law that condemned sinners, how could she have faith in a man who was a law enforcer, not a sin forgiver?
He was both; these things are not mutually exclusive.
None? So they all went to Hell?There is no forgiveness to those who commit a sin carrying the death penalty.
Do you know anything about Abraham's Bosom?
Like so many here, he's giving his straw-man a terrible thrashing!
It's just too bad for him it's something that he invented and only exists in his mind.
Indubitably.
