Human courts in the USA do not contradict what we have in the Bible. They are really trying to be just and fair, they just cannot address every situation nor do they judge by looking at the heart of the criminal. Try to force penal substitution into something fair and just, does not work and is not the way God acts.That's human court. . .is it against the law in God's Court?
The sinner who does not accept the Loving discipline will be punished, while those who accept God’s forgiveness and Loving discipline go on to heaven.
Paying a fine is not the same as take the place for the death sentence on the criminal, which is not allowed in any court as far as I know, because it is unjust.Which is someone else paying your debt for transgressing the law, just as Jesus did on the cross according to God's Court.
Would you please reference n accounting dictionary or textbook.Your knowledge of the background of accounting is lacking.
Forgiveness means "cancellation of the debt," which can be by payment or otherwise.
It really does not matter what the legal punishment is for any crime if it is forgiven, since forgive debts have no payment.The mortality of the body is temporary, they do not remain dead forever, we are set free of it at the resurrection, just as we are set free of sin (made sinless) at the resurrection.
What does it mean to have your sins 100% forgiven?Which is where we launch into a "less-than-satisfactory," human, extra-Biblical notion of forgiveness, nowhere found in Scripture, the stench of which rises to the heavenly Court to be spit out and trampled on as the insufferable demeaning notion that it is.
(Why don't you tell us what you think, Clare?)
I start with Lev. 5 and go through all the verse in context on atonement.Where do we find this miserable gospel-denying notion presented, supported or asserted in Scripture, the only authority for God's truth?
