Let’s think before we type.

No, the Jews did not lose their first offspring at the Passover, unlike the Divine Punishment given that people residing in Egypt who did not act in faith to His commands.

NGTIA,...anytime we find ourselves expecting punishment and trevail, we manifest we are perceiving perfection from the perspective of unrighteousness anticipating judgment.

That is the perspective of anybody out of fellowship with God.

Every human being other than Christ Himself has had this perspective.

That’s where this whole Jesus Christ thing becomes so important.

He paid that price. Through faith in Him, we now have the opportunity for forgiveness by nothing more than facing God, confessing our sin to Him through faith in what Christ did on the Cross.

If we don’t keep that simple faith alone in what Christ alone did on the Cross, we don;t have faith, nor forgiveness of sin,...then we still anticipate fiery indignation and more punishment.

Have just a little more faith than no faith whatsoever, and He takes care of the rest.
