It isn't moving the goalposts when I take your own word game and run with the logical consequences.
So you fancy yourself as a forward thinker. Not all of us do. So maybe you can tell me how you got from your orginal questions, to the ones you have about Christ dying for sins?
If there was indeed a 'logical progression' then why not logically 'progress' together?

Nah. I went back to look at post 13. It doesn't explain anything. Just some mindlessly asserted dribble: "Hell is death. Resurrection is life."
Here is the OP:
Quote:If any 1 person's sins are grievous enough to warrant an eternity in hell, how does someone else 'pay for' the sins of everybody without themselves spending an eternity in hell?In the OP there is a statement, and a question.
The Statement:
Quote:If any 1 person's sins are grievous enough to warrant an eternity in hell,
The question:
Quote:how does someone else 'pay for' the sins of everybody without themselves spending an eternity in hell?
My response:
Hell is Spiritual Death. The bible refers to Hell as being a place and as being Death. Or a Place to Die spiritually, a Place where the Spirit dies/Consumed by Hell fire.
The bible does not give us the impression that Hell is the Devils realm where he rules with a pitch fork, and torments people. All who are sent to Hell are sent there to be consumed by Hell fire. Only Satan is to be punished for eternity. (This world is Satan's play ground not Hell, he is sent there to be punished like everyone else.)
Resurrection is Life. or a return to Life. an Awaking.
So how does one pay for sins and not spend eternity in Hell/Death? He awakens from death/Sheol.
