Originally posted by checkbaiterSo contrary to your earlier claims, it actually requires and so much payment that you cannot pay - hence the need for a saviour. Odd that you think this is a plus for your religion.
Actually it does. It requires faith in Jesus Christ as our payment for our sin. He is our substitute for sin which must be paid for.
Other religions require self payment of one form or another, but this is insufficient as an acceptable payment to God. We can never pay for our sin on our own, other than our own lives. That is, to be tossed in the Lake of Fire, which is the only other way aside from Jesus Christ.
