>anon you are a terrible person and deserve to go to jail forever ah shit BUT WAIT. Jesus just showed up, he says you're all good, he already did your sentence for you.
Exactly, except for the "you're all good". Nothing's good until you seal the deal.
>All you have to do is say "Thanks Jesus!" and we'll just forget all your crimes and you're free to go!.
It's a bit more specific:
βFor I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:β (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
βThat if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.β (Romans 10:9-10)
βΒΆ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.β (John 3:16)
βFor by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.β (Ephesians 2:8-9)
>that's not justice.
That's the whole point. If you were to get justice, you'd have to go to hell. What you want is grace, and the only way to get grace from a just God is to have God Himself shed His own blood for you.
βAnd almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.β (Hebrews 9:22)
