If you dont accept Christ as your savior?

[Christ4ever777]

So if you dont accept Christ as your savior you will have to pay/punished for your sins in Hell? Is this correct?

[Tall Timbers]

Don't have time to look up verses right now, but I believe that bible says that those under the law will be judged by the law, or something like that. Our acceptance of the gift that Jesus Christ offers is like a past, present, and future pardon in this particular phase of our life.

If you don't accept Jesus' payment for your sin(s) you have to pay for your own sins, which takes an eternity of burning.

[Christ4ever777]

Ok then that is correct. I was just making sure. Thanks everybody.

That is my understanding.

Revelation 20:11-15; 21:8

Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Accepting Christ is how you get your name into that book of life.

John 3:16

[icebear]

you either spend eternity with Jesus or the only alternative: hell

[IamHis]

Jesus said 'I am the way , the truth, and the life, no man comes to the Father but by Me'
He is the way to the Father, God. His way is the truth. He promises eternal life.
If you do not choose Jesus, you choose to be without God. There is no gray zone.
If you don't choose Jesus, you choose to be without God. If you choose to be without
God, when you die, you will be eternally separated from Him. Without God, there is
nothing good. No love, no friendship, no comfort, no laughter, nothing good. God does
not send anyone to hell. They send themselves there by their own decision.

[Kliska]

Ok then that is correct. I was just making sure. Thanks everybody.

I admit, I'm curious as to why the question? And, what does the answer mean to you?

John 8:24
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

Dying in your sins is pretty much that, yes. If this person has heard what Christ said and refuses Him, why would they think it would be any different? Someone who hears what God says and will not obey Him, the gospel of Jesus Christ, then they refuse the free gift that God offers them to escape hell, on their own accord, freely rejecting Him, they will be brought to remembrance of their defiance to God. If they don't want hell, there is only one way. If they don't want Christ, theres only one place to go. Very simple.

Hal Lindsey actually answers this question quite well in his most recent report:

I suggest watching the entire video, but the part that addresses the thread starts at 23:06 minutes into the video.

I am with you. Why did the question get asked?
