Where does that right come from

Christ. But when it says "wash their robes" can that not be interpreted as repentance?

No. Hence, Christ’s completed work.

Alright, I'm done. I'm not sure I agree entirely but clearly your motives are pure, I believe in solus Christus to.

You are factory sealed, industrial strength Reformed!

I understand but what does this say about what He HAS already done for the world? For me its the song playing "by His Wounds" We forget those things that are behind

HE did so much for us.. deserved..hmm this was the plan from the start

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

Preacher proclaiming that if we asked God for exactly what we deserved on that last day that we would be the biggest fool born into a body...

It depends on a number of things. If someone has committed a horrible crime then they should definitely face the consequences of their unacceptable behaviour. But if you are talking about cancer or some other illness then no I will feel sorry for them. I would also try to comfort them. Nobody deserves to struggle with cancer alone.

What if we got what we really deserved? Would that be a terrible or wonderful thing?

What is wonderful is that we don't get what we deserve. To get what we deserve is good and just but what an amazing beautiful, wonderful Creator that He Loves us more than what is good and just.

If we got what we deserved then every single person would go to hell. We are in bodies that are weak and corrupt.

Justice, before I was a Christian, would be a terrible thing for me.
Justice, now that I am a Christian, will be a wonderful thing.

i'm in trouble!

We'd kind of rot away instantaneously then burst into flames in reaction to all the sin produces by our bodies, but it's not about what we deserve.
