The Nature of God in the Atonement

@TomL



You denying Christ and scripture Heb 1:3 The guilt of sin is gone, when He sat down !
You ignored these

John 8:24 (LEB) — 24 Thus I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

Acts 3:19 (LEB) — 19 Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be blotted out,

2 Thessalonians 2:12 (LEB) — 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth, but delighted in unrighteousness.

And it's your ignoring of scripture that is the problem here.
 
@TomL



The guilt of their sins were purged away, when He sat down, so they are not guilty ! Thats Justification
Um unbelievers are not justified

John 8:24 (LEB) — 24 Thus I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

Acts 3:13–19 (NASB95) — 13 “The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus, the one whom you delivered and disowned in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him. 14 “But you disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, 15 but put to death the Prince of life, the one whom God raised from the dead, a fact to which we are witnesses. 16 “And on the basis of faith in His name, it is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all. 17 “And now, brethren, I know that you acted in ignorance, just as your rulers did also. 18 “But the things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled. 19 “Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;

2 Thessalonians 2:12 (LEB) — 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth, but delighted in unrighteousness.

Unbelievers are condemned, not justified.

You denying Christ and scripture Heb 1:3 The guilt of sin is gone, when He sat down !
To forgive and save believers per scripture

Acts 10:43 (LEB) — 43 To this one all the prophets testify, that through his name everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins.”



Acts 26:18 (LEB) — 18 to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a share among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’



Romans 3:23–25 (LEB) — 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified as a gift by his grace, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God made publicly available as the mercy seat through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness, because of the passing over of previously committed sins,

As we have seen in this thread we have the same Bible and Dictionary but a different vocabulary and definition than those who promote PSA and for that matter tulip too. But this thread is about PSA , the atonement. They hijack words and their meanings to fit the doctrine. It happens with Sovereignty, election , chosen, predestination, regeneration, foreknowledge just to name a few.

A.W. Tozer believed God's sovereignty is the basis for man's freedom; God sovereignly decreed that man possesses moral freedom to choose between good and evil. Man's choices, even evil ones, fulfill God's sovereign will because the divine decree established the freedom to choose, not a specific choice. God's absolute freedom allows Him to grant limited freedom to His creation, a gift a less sovereign God could not bestow

You ignored these

Nothing of them scriptures deny or contradict what Christ accomplished, the purging away of all the sins of them He died for, finished the work and sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on High Heb 1:3

3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

And He knows every person whose sins He purged away.

Ps 79:9

9 Help us , O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.

Sins purged away = Salvation
 
@TomL

You denying His effectual work. He made an end of sin for the covenant people Dan 9:24

24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

Christ's work made for the purification of sin,

Hebrews 1:3–4 (NIV) — 3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.

Which would be applied to believers, not unbelievers.

1 John 1:9 (LEB) — 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, so that he will forgive us our sins and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Acts 3:19 (LEB) — 19 Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be blotted out,

26 or then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

When He put away their sins back in 33 ad, current believers were not believers back when He put away their sins, in fact they had not yet been born into unbelievers, but they would be, so when they were born unbelievers, their sins had been put away centuries b4, they were unbelievers with no sin to their charge.

Acts 13:39
by this one everyone who believes is justified!

Rom 4:5
But to the one who does not work, but who believes in the one who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited for righteousness,

1 Cor 15:1–2
Now I make known to you, brothers, the gospel which I proclaimed to you, which you have also received, in which you also stand, by which you are also being saved, if you hold fast to the message I proclaimed to you, unless you believed to no purpose.

Eph 1:13–14
in whom also you, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also when you believed you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the down payment of our inheritance, until the redemption of the possession, to the praise of his glory.

2 Tim 3:15
and that from childhood you have known the holy writings that are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

John 20:31
but these things are recorded in order that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Acts 15:11
But we believe we will be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus in the same way those also are.”

Gal 3:22
But the scripture imprisoned all under sin, in order that the promise could be given by faith in Jesus Christ to those who believe.

Christ's work made for the purification of sin,

Hebrews 1:3–4 (NIV) — 3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.

Which would be applied to believers, not unbelievers.

1 John 1:9 (LEB) — 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, so that he will forgive us our sins and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Acts 3:19 (LEB) — 19 Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be blotted out,

Acts 2:38 (LEB) — 38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

John 8:24 (LEB) — 24 Thus I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

2 Thessalonians 2:12 (LEB) — 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth, but delighted in unrighteousness.

Christ's work justifies and saves believers, not unbelievers.

Absolutely false, a multitude of unbelievers were saved by Christs death for them. He put away their sins back in 33 Ad on the Cross, purged them way, now they had not even been born unbelieving sinners yet, and they were saved legally from their sins, no sin can be charged to them legally because they are all purged away. Heb 1:3 ; Heb 9:26

26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. Their sins had been cancelled, abolished.

See these are Truths that you should have heard in the True Gospel, God given Faith receives these truths.
