2 Cor 5.21
20We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21God made him who had no sin to be sin[a] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

sojourner said:Agreed. Frubals to you...and a beer.
Snowbear said:Just ask, as Jesus taught us in "The Lord's Prayer"....Mat 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
Luke 11:4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.Jesus also told us: forgive, and you will be forgiven....
Mark 11:25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.We are admonished to pray in Faith:
Luke 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
James 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him

Hmmmm.... looks to me like someone needs to take his own adviceBaerly said:Please read your bible and accept the word of God.. Is it possible that many have been told an untruth? Even though those preaching that untruth had good intentions,they did not actually know what the bible said....
Baerly said:I am so sorry to say, that no one has answered the question I asked correctly according to the bible. I am your friend for telling you that little bit of information. Please do not take my word for it,take it from the bible. The bible says sins are forgiven at the point of water baptism (Acts 22:16). Sins are not remitted till a person is baptized in water. At that same time a person is also baptized in Christ according to (Gal.3:27).At the time a person is baptized in water they are also put into the kingdom according to (Col.1:13) (Rev.1:9). The bible says the blood of Jesus forgives our sins,but that does not happen until water baptism according to the bible (Col.2:12) (Titus 3:5) (Acts 2:38) (Acts:35-38) (1Peter 3:21). The Lord used water as the line of DEMARKATION in many instances in the bible.Water baptism in the new testament is yet another one of those times (Gen.7) (Ex.14) (2King 5) (Acts 2:38) (Acts 22:16) (1Peter 3:21) (Eph.5:26).
We know anyone outside of Christ is lost. Please read your bible and accept the word of God.. Is it possible that many have been told an untruth? Even though those preaching that untruth had good intentions,they did not actually know what the bible said about this subject. (Acts 22:16) Harmonizes with every verse in the bible when one understand the bible in its proper context.I will be more than glad to spend time with anyone who wishes to really know what the bible says about when sins are forgiven. Once in time all the people in the world believed the world was SQUARE. But that is because those who were uninformed were teaching others their personal thoughts on the matter rather than what actually was truth. My question to you is have you done what (John 5:39) & (Acts 17:11) says or have you just swallowed an untruth like a goggled eyed perch. Am I your enemy because I tell you the truth (Gal. 4:16)? Let me be your friend by telling you truth
(John 17:17). --in love Baerly

Peace said:From an Islamic point of view, all sins are forgiven any time the sinful person repents sincerly and resort to God with good intention to repent. God forgives all sins be it small or big, for God is Mercy.
So from what you say here, since NO-ONE, Christian or not, is perfect enough to live a completely sinless life, a person would need to be baptized each time s/he sins for those sins to be remitted?? I don't think so, Baerly!Baerly said:I am so sorry to say, that no one has answered the question I asked correctly according to the bible.

First we must see our sin,repent and believe that Jesus died for our sins,recieve the gift of his grace his death on the cross for our sins,recieve him as Savior,Baerly said:Does the bible tell us when sins are forgiven?
