a lot of people make this mistake. when you read the bible, some aspects of it are not ambiguously meshed with time. this means you cant apply every part of the bible to every era on earth. some parts of the bible are time-specific. that part of the bible, Isaiah 53 is time-specific. who was around during these times wiriting these lamentations because they were going through hell in the hands of the gentiles ? the Jews. and most especially the spiritually enlightened ones amongst them called the elect ( 144,000 of them ). these are the elect amongst them talking about how christ will come die for their sins etc etc. this is era-specific and jew-specific. that does not apply to modern day era. however how that chapter applies to the modern era is that because christ died to seal the elect, which made them the first fruits onto the lord, these men were able to be used by God to write the words that united the whole world under the law, which is the new testament, as well as writing the old testament. these men are who put the spirit of the lord in print so that you and I can use the spirit of God ( which is the bible-john 6 vs 63 ) to atone for ourselves and get closer to God. SEE THIS IS THE MISTAKE MOST PASTORS AND PEOPLE MAKE. THEY READ TIME-SPECIFIC EVENTS IN THE BIBLE OR LETTERS DIRECTED TO SPECIFIC PEOPLE SUCH AS THE NEW TESTAMENT LETTERS AND THEY THINK THIS IS TALKING TO THE WHOLE WORLD. THESE ARE ERA-SPECIFIC MESSAGES, WHICH IF THEY HADNT HAPPENED THE WAY THEY HAPPENED, WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PRIVY TO HAVE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IN OUR HOMES WHICH IS THE BIBLE. SO BASICALLY THOSE EVENTS ARE JUST NOTES GIVING YOU THE PROCESS OF HOW THE BIBLE GOT TO YOU. WHAT THESE MEN WENT THROUGH AND HOW THEY HAD TO GET SANCTIFIED AND ATONED FOR SO THAT THE LORD CAN THEN USE THEM ( CUZ THE LORD DONT WORK WITH SINNERS TO PRODUCE HIS WORD ) TO BRING HIS WORD TO THE WHOLE WORLD. SEE SO MANY PEOPLE GOT THE BIBLE MIXED UP. IF SOMEONE GAVE YOU A BIBLE WITHOUT TELLING HOW IT GOT PRODUCED WOULD YOU TAKE IT SERIOUS ? I AM SURE YOU WILL NOT. WELL THE LORD PUT IN THE BIBLE THE WHOLE PROCESS OF HOW IT CAME ABOUT. PEOPLE ARE THEN EGOTISTICAL TO APPLY THAT PROCESS TO THEMSELVES THINKING IT IS TALKING ABOUT THEM. THE PARTS OF THE BIBLE THAT APPLIES TO US ARE THE PROPHESYS AND THE LAWS AND STATUTES AND COMMANDMENTS. NOT THE JESUS DYING FOR US PART. THAT PART IS TIME-SPECIFIC. THERE IS A REASON WHY WE ARE ALLL CATCHING HELL TODAY AND THATS BECAUSE CHRIST DID NOT DIE FOR OUR SINS. WE PAY FOR OUR SINS EVERYDAY

NB this was a reply I made to ATMC but i decided it was poignant enough to share.

I don't agree with your views because the death of Jesus Christ is for the salvation of the world. This is the reason why he commanded in Acts 1:8 that his disciples should preach his gospel to every part of the world. We don't pay for our sins because the actual punishment of sin is death but when you sin God allows you to continue living while making effort to repent. We still need Jesus today to save us from sin.

There are different standard of salvation in different dispensation . Before law came, during the law era, church age and the tribulation and post tribulation time But christ death paid for all . The Old Testament saints can't be perfected without the church Land christ blood .

Hebrews 11:40
God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

Joagbaje:

. The Old Testament saints can't be perfected without the church Land christ blood .

What do u type above ? The format is hell/heaven ! And since Abraham and Noah are saints , didnt they go to heaven when they die ?
If they go, can u see that Christ didnt die for their sins ? And since They made heaven, arent they perfected already ? Or can an imperfect thing dwell in heaven ?
