Q 7. It is said Jesus came and died to atone for our sins. What are our sins? Why did God leave us alone to commit sin?
Explanation: The Creator God does not have a genealogy. He is the only God, who is self-existent (Ex 3:14). Sin is not keeping and obeying God’s word (covenant), but believing in the words of the traitor (Gn 2:17; Gn 3),
Satan (snake), who said we could become like God. The Creator, who is the Father, told his son, who is a created being, that he would die if he ate the fruit of the tree (of the knowledge of good and evil). This also is the covenant God made with His Son. Although they knew this (truth, fact, knowledge), their sin was the fact they believed in the words of the snake (devil), who said they would become like God if they ate the fruit.
This is a spiritual sin through which they turned their backs (betrayal) on the Father. This is the sin we have committed. The Father did not leave his son alone to commit sin. The son chose to sin.
In the end, the words of the serpent were lies and God’s word was the truth.
Jesus’ blood of atonement was commemorated until the Second Coming with the bread and wine (Mt 26), but it comes into effect at the Second Coming. Look at Revelation chapters 5 and 7. This is not a lie; it is the truth.
- Revelation 1:5
and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood,
- Revelation 5:9
And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.
- Revelation 7:14
I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
- Revelation 12:11
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
The blood of Jesus' atonement, which was commemorated with the bread and wine, comes into effect at the Second Coming.
