Judgments of Scripture


Subjects: believers as to sin

 Romans 6:10  

The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.

Hebrews 9:25-28 

25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.  26 Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.  27 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

Judgments of believers’’ sins in the Cross of Christ

John 12:31-32  

Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. 32 But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself.”

Time: on the Cross

John 3:14  

Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,

1 Peter 2:24  

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

John 17:4  

I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do.

Place: Calvary

Luke 23:33  

When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left.

Basis: Christ’s perfect work

John 3:16  

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

John 5:24  

“I tell you the truth; whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.

Romans 6:8  

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.

Result: death of Christ; life to believers
