Revelation 20:12
And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.


1 Corinthians 4:5
Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men's hearts; and then each man's praise will come to him from God.

1 Peter 1:17
If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one's work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth;

how will you explain this scripture?

Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law(without repentance)?

For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. After all, is God the God of the Jews only? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles? Of course he is.
There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles
Well then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.

Romans 3:28 - 31

now you see that the justification to eternal life is spiritual, it has nothing to do with repentance which is physical.

John 3:6 that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit.

So, spirit and flesh have nothing to do with each other just like salvation into eternal life(which is spiritual justification) has nothing to do with repentance.

So, the reason why those scriptures you quoted earlier emphasizes repentance is for us to attain physical justification here on this earth and not for us to attain eternal life.

No amount of good thing you do can give you eternal life. Eternal life is freely given to us through Christ whether we repent or not.

And physical death too as seen by observing nations who truly do God's will, which is not measured by the number praying or shouting "Jesus is Lord" but by whether they love one another and feed the poor et al.

Nations that generally do more of this live longer.

If humanity could have saved themselves by works, there would have been no need for the Grace ( the gift of God) which is Christ.

what type?
Do you understand what i am saying at all?

I am equally saying we are saved by grace and not by works, only that i am not putting it in your African type, i am applying it to reality for the op to understand.

Have you ever give gifts to people without taking anything in return?
That is the kind of gift Christ gave to us as salvation. He never wanted us to work for it or pay back anything.
But the only type of love you Africans know is the one you will give in one hand and collect something in return at the other hand(the poverty mindset). That is not grace.

it has everything to do with repentance. Christ died for all, he died for the boko haram guys, the ISIS, down to the prostitutes and the common thief, but not all comes to repentance and that's why they ended up in hell. If it has nothing to do with repentance then all of us whether you accept him or not will end up in heaven, but it has everything from recognizing Him and accepting His Lordship through repentance, for with the heart a man believe and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

yes, Christ died for them all but not all of them have accepted Christ. Anyone of them who have accepted Christ though they continue with their prostitution, boko haram, ISIS or whatever atrocities, they are saved. That is the good news of the gospel.

Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us

Understand this : they are saved spiritually but not physically, because they will all face the consequences of their boko haram, ISIS or prostitution here on this physical earth.

Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins

That means, though we are saved but our salvation cannot save us from the consequences of our sin when we sin willfully.

So, our salvation has nothing to do with whether we repent or not.

Yes They have been saved but have they accepted that they are saved!(acceptance, confession to salvation) Even if they accept why are they still walking in the path of damnation that leads to hell in the spiritual. These are things that need to be understood.

For a man to be saved there must be repentance.
Repentance (knowing his sinful condition and the dangers in such condition and turning to God) only then can he accept christ.
The law was our school master to direct us to christ not the other way round.

In Christ we found a completely new life that is of the spirit
In this new life is govern by the law of the Spirit

yes,they are working in the part of damnation. Damnation in the sense that what they are doing have their consequences which they will suffer hear on this earth but that does not mean they will not be saved into eternal life through Christ when they die,i have explained that before.

that leads to hell in the spiritual.
the damnation they will suffer here on this earth as a result of their sin cannot lead them to heal in the spiritual.There is no connectivity between the spiritual and the physical in that aspect, it's not possible. Otherwise, Christ didn't come to die.

So, they are saved inspite their sin simply because they have accepted Christ.

so from your explanation now, even after receiving Christ, the boko haram, the isis, prostitute, the adulterer and common thief, that died in their sin will all make heaven, right!

While you are a christian because your parents indoctrinated you into it. You would have happily been a Muslim had you had Muslim parents. so, I used my choice but you didn't use yours.

And that is grace!
And that explains why the thief who was crucified with Christ was justified. Not because he was not guilty of the crime but because he believed Christ at his dying moment.

But what does this tells us?
That we should continue in sin because there is grace?
God forbid !

It is not left for us to use our minds to avoid sin.
