No, this is heresy. And it defies basic common sense. If a judge sent an innocent man to jail for a rape or a murder committed by another, and let the rapist or murderer go scott-free, there is not a man on Earth who would call that judge just, or praise him for his work. Everyone would call that judge a monster, and that is what your theology makes of God.The Son took our punishment as if He has sinned . . . So Christ being punished for our sin brings Glory to the Father.

The Son took our punishment as if He has sinned.
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
— 2 Corinthians 5:21
I didn’t say that He sinned.That is simply wrong. Jesus never sinned as your Biblical quote shows:
As you’ve said, I do not agree. The problem is that most professing born again Christians are not yet born again. I know in my own life I thought I was born again around 1974. It was wasn’t until around 1990 that it actually happened. There is one truth and all who are in Christ must be taught directly from Him.
That Christ took the punishment as if He had sinned.What did you mean by this then?
That Christ took the punishment as if He had sinned.
And I never said He was a sinner.No He didn't! He became sin, He was not a representative sinner. He was not a sinner in any way, shape or form.
There is only one Church. The hidden Church in Christ. If and when Christ comes to you as a thief in the night, that is when you will begin to understand. This great revelation must come directly from Christ.Wouldn't that mean all born again believers belonged to the same church/denomination, at least having the same theology?
I know born again Calvinsts as well as Lutherans and Pentacostals.
The idea that "I know" the correct theology since the Holy Spirit is teaching me easily gets to "I'm right, your wrong". There is no way to prove that person wrong since he/she claims being directly taught by God. There is a danger in this I believe.
What I wrote agrees with Paul. I’m in good company.Amen!
What you wrote is still heresy.
Lol.John Calvin created your theology. Not Paul.
Seeking has the promise of finding in God’s Word.Wouldn't that mean all born again believers belonged to the same church/denomination, at least having the same theology?

It does not agree with Scripture. You wrote that Jesus took our punishment. Our punishment is eternal damnation in hell. Our Lord did not suffer eternal damnation in hell. So even if we assume for the sake of argument that what you wrote is true, it self-contradicts.if what I post agrees with scripture
Why aren’t believers punished?It does not agree with Scripture. You wrote that Jesus took our punishment. Our punishment is eternal damnation in hell. Our Lord did not suffer eternal damnation in hell. So even if we assume for the sake of argument that what you wrote is true, it self-contradicts.
I asked a question based on your statement.If you have a point you can make it.
