Jesus Paid It All

1st Peter 1:18-19, “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.”

I went walking along the ocean one morning at 5:30, and saw a window sticker on the pickup truck in front of me, that read, “JESUS PAID IT ALL!” What a beautiful thought—JESUS PAID IT ALL!

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must “turn away from sinful ways” as a requirement to receive the free gift of God, which is forgiveness of sins and eternal life.

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must be sorry for their sins and turn over a new leaf to receive the free gift of God.

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must receive Jesus as their “LORD” to receive the free gift of God.

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must commit their life to live for Jesus Christ to receive the free gift of God.

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must follow Jesus as His disciple to receive the free gift of God.

This one statement—JESUS PAID IT ALL—condemns the false teaching that a person must publicly confess the name of Jesus to receive the free gift of God.

To all you reprobate preachers I say—JESUS PAID IT ALL! To Pastor John MacArthur and his Calvinist doctrine of Lordship Salvation I say—JESUS PAID IT ALL! To Evangelist Ray Comfort and his heresy that a person must turn from sinful living to be saved I say—JESUS PAID IT ALL! To Harvest Baptist Church on Guam and their Lordship Salvation heresy I say—JESUS PAID IT ALL!

The price for sin has been paid. Thus, forgiveness of sins is a “free gift” (Romans 5:15b) that you simply receive by faith in the Gospel. Eternal life is a free gift, that you simply receive by faith in the Gospel. JESUS PAID IT ALL! JESUS PAID IT ALL! JESUS PAID IT ALL!

Salvation is the free gift of God. You don't earn it. You don't merit it. You simply receive it by faith, by believing 'THE GOSPEL' ('THE GOOD NEWS') of Jesus Christ's death on the cross, burial and bodily resurrection the third day.
“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies...” —2nd Peter 2:1
