REDEMPTIVE WORK OF JESUS CHRIST DEMONSTRATED ON BALANCE SCALE

Abstract
This invention involves a balance scale with a base, a balance arm support, a balance arm, a pointer, a counter-balance, a movable label plate containing descriptions and an optional parallel beam. The balance arm has a tray on each end, where one tray holds an article representing mankind with sin, and the other tray holds an article representing the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. The articles on each tray are of equal or approximately equal weight. The scale rotates when the weight of the articles are added to or removed from the trays, and the scale rotation will determine which description the pointer will point to. This invention can be used as a Christian teaching aid showing the benefit of choosing to accept the death of Christ as payment in full for our sins, along with showing the consequence of our refusal to accept the death of Christ as payment for our sins.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention

The present invention is a balance scale that is designed to depict and teach the significance of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ and how the sacrifice of Jesus is available to save mankind from their sins.


2. Description of the Related Art

From a Christian perspective, Jesus Christ of Nazareth died on a cross to pay the penalty for the sins of mankind. For those who choose to believe, Jesus freed mankind from the bondage of sin. As it is written in the Gospel of John, Jesus said “It is finished” just before He died. Another form of this saying is “Paid in full!”


This invention demonstrates the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on a balance scale, showing that mankind's sin has been paid in full by Jesus' ransom sacrifice. Put another way, God's remedy for mankind's sin problem was the death of His own Son, God has accepted His Son's death as payment for everyone's sin, but if we refuse to accept Jesus' death by faith, then the penalty of our sins remains upon us and our sin debt is still counted against us, as demonstrated on the scale.


The self-righteousness of mankind is considered to be the equivalent of filthy rags in the eyes of our God, as it is written in the Book of Isaiah. Furthermore, written in the Book of Romans, “There is none righteous, no, not one.” Therefore, from a Christian perspective, we attain righteousness by having faith in the completed work of Jesus Christ. Through faith in Jesus Christ, the sin debt that was charged against us has been paid in full, and on a balance scale demonstration, the debt that was originally owed has been off-set by the payment made through the atoning death of Christ. Put another way, we have a debt that we cannot pay and Jesus paid a debt that He didn't owe. This is demonstrated in a visual perspective on a balance scale.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This invention involves a loaded balance scale, where one side of the scale represents mankind in their sinful or natural state, and the other side of the scale represents the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ. Both sides of the scale have trays to hold articles that represent mankind and represent Christ, where the articles are of equal or approximately equal weight. The trays are supported on a balance arm, and the balance arm rotates on a pivot.


At or near the center of the balance arm is a pointer that rotates to a label plate, and the label plate has descriptions listed thereon. Alternatively, the label plate can be at or near the center of the balance arm and rotate to a pointer, and the label plate has descriptions listed thereon. The weight on the trays will determine which description the pointer will point to.


Even in our natural state, mankind has a sin problem that has been passed down from our first ancestors Adam and Eve. Therefore, this invention can be used as a Christian teaching aid showing the benefit of choosing to accept the death of Christ as payment in full for our sins, along with showing the consequence of our refusal to accept the death of Christ as payment for our sins.
