Question

Does a person go to hell for being a sinner?

Answer

Now, you don’t go to hell because you’re a sinner; you go to hell because you refused to accept the way away from hell. There’s a bypass; that’s Christ. There’s a bypass from your sickness, quick death, premature grave; that’s through Christ. But now, you’re—you’re—you sinned in the beginning, and Christ died for your sins. Therefore, He saved you when He died. He saved you, and He healed you when He died, for He took your place. But now, all you have to do is to accept it by faith, and you’ll receive it. See what I mean? Now, there’s nothing more to be done, because your healing’s already paid for. You can have it right this afternoon. You can have it right now, this very minute when you believe it. When your faith meets God’s requirement, to believe that Christ died for your sickness, when He died for your sins (and He died for your sins at Calvary), and accept it upon that basis; it’s that moment, you are healed in the sight of God. See? Then you go on testifying of it, believing it. You don’t…We…You testify of the things you do not see. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things you do not see. And we look at the unseen.
