How come God can't just forgive everyone's sins?

I think there are not only theological problems with this question. But also logical problems, which I am going to be going over in this blog.

But first, a question.

Why should God forgive anyone's sins?

One might say it is because He is all loving. But they have completely misunderstood God's nature and love. Let's not forget that God is more than just loving. He is also holy, just and righteous. So, should a holy, just and righteous God just forgive a sinner? Should a judge just forgive a criminal because that judge is all loving and all forgiving? The answer is no, because that judge has to his or her job. A criminal deserves to be punished by a fair, just and righteous judge. Just like a sinner does by God.

Now don't get me wrong. God is very loving and His mercy is very rich. But that does not imply that God should just forgive everyone or anyone at that. That would rule out his righteousness and justice, making him not God. One attribute would have to substitute the other. But in order for God to exist. He must exist logically.

That was the logical problems. So, what about the theological problems? Well, Hebrews 9:22 says this "In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness" This is clarified by 1 John 5:7, Revelation 1:5 and Ephesians 1:7.

There is no forgiveness of sin without the precious blood of the lamb, Jesus Christ.
We must put our faith and trust into Him, and believe, as the Bible teaches.
