Does Les teach that all the sins of the world are forgiven?
Yes. All the sins of the world are forgiven in the work of the cross, which is totally paid for. That payment is not automatically applied; it must be drawn on by believing the Gospel. Those who refuse will face their sins as unbelievers at the Great White Throne.
Les teaches that all the sins of the world are forgiven—the work of the cross is totally paid for and ready for anyone to draw on it by believing. He clarifies that this does not mean the lost will avoid judgment if they do not cash in by believing the Gospel. He illustrates this with Congress appropriating billions for a program and setting it aside in the Treasury: the money sits there until someone appropriates it by drawing on it. In the same way, the payment of the cross must be appropriated by faith. If a person won’t believe, he will have to face his sins as an unbeliever at the Great White Throne. In the judgment scene, the books are opened, the Book of Life is checked, and the dead are judged out of the books according to their works. Because they did not believe, they can no longer claim the blood of the cross paid for them; it is too late.
