We Must Know The Meaning Of Jesus's Baptism By John The Baptist by Thegospelman(m): 6:51pm On Feb 25
The sins of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the sins that we commit until the day we die are also included in ‘the sin of the world’ just as the sins of today, yesterday, and the day before yesterday are also included in ‘the sin of the world.’ The sins of people from birth to death are all part of ‘the sin of the world,’ and the sin of the world was passed on to Jesus through His baptism. Therefore all the sins we will commit until the day we die have already been taken away from us.

And we need only believe in this original gospel, the written words of God, and obey to be saved. We should set aside our own thoughts to be redeemed of all our sins. You may well ask, “How could He take away the sins not yet committed?” Then, I would ask you in return, “Should Jesus come back to this world every time we sin and shed blood again and again?”

Within the gospel of being born again, there is the law of atonement for sins. “And without shedding of blood there is no remission.” (Hebrews 9:22). When someone wanted to be redeemed of his sins in the days of the Old Testament, he had to pass on his sins by laying his hands on a sin offering, and the sin offering had to die for his sins.

In much the same way, the Son of God came down to this world to save all humankind. He was baptized to take away all our sins and He bled at the Cross to pay the wages of our sins and He died at the Cross, saying, “It is finished!” He was resurrected from the dead after 3 days and now sits at the right hand of God. He has become our Savior forever.

Hebrews 9 vs 22 specifically quotes what the Law of Moses says. Jesus Christ is NOT the Law of Moses, and so the expectation that remission of sins has to be based on that which is the Old Law is invalid. Because many in Israel failed to obtain righteousness by way of the Old Law, God placed the curse He promised He would on all of them beginning in the same generation that Jesus Christ was a Part of. Daniel made clear this would happen and Paul confirmed that this happened in his lifetime. All of Israel, under God's Old Law, has been cursed by the God of Israel and there is no redemption to be had from following the Old laws and teachings. So, advocating ideas that pertain to the Law even now, over 1900 years later, amounts to suggesting people remain cursed. undecided

Jesus Christ was not a sin offering, a fellowship offering, o a guilt offering. Rather, He is the Lamb of God, a Passover Lamb, and the Passover Lamb is not a sacrifice but a feast ushering in a New agreement - Exodus 12. undecided

By the way, OP, what proof do you have that you are yourself born-again? undecided

Shut up... You don't know what you're saying. How can a foreigner die for your sins? Are you sick? Can't you think?

What "sins" do you have abeg? You mean crimes you have committed against the criminal code of the nation you live in, right? undecided

Only those who are born under a covenant with the God of Israel or those subjects to His Covenant have sins to atone for. All others have no sins against Him to worry about. undecided
