Christianity's 'Salvation through some dude' theory comes from nowhere. It only exists in the New Testament. Isn't it highly likely that Satan manipulated the truth and offered people a short-cut, the easy way to Heaven to decieve them?
Moses had the 10-step plan: "The 10 Commandments"
Christianity offers the 1-step plan: "Believe in Jesus"

MAN!! U r Brilliant..
i wish all christians read bible sincerely to find God.And think the way u are and by that, they will see clearly that they have been deceived!!
it is true of what u said.. if some one read Old Testament, Gospel and Pauls letter.. there are so differents from each other.
First the 10 commandments, the Abraham covenant.
Jesus preaching and Pauls preaching is so far different.
Paul didnt follow what Jesus has teached!! he deny Jesus was sent to fulfill mosess law. he denied of all mosess law about circumsision, sabath, 1 God and in his letter he said that Jesus was sent to demolished the Mosses law! How big the contradiction is!! i can conclude that Christians based on Paul's religion!
Jesus said he was sent down to fulfill the Moses and Abraham covenant.
Jesus believe in 1 absolute God, just like all other prophets in Old Testament.. they believe in 1 God. In Old testament they prophesied the prophets, the son of man to bring Gods Kingdom. And no such prophesied of God in human form or Son of God to come down to earth, to be sacrificed and with his death human will be saved.
In New Testament all the disciples believe Jesus is human, prophets and rabbi but none believe Jesus is God. Jesus himself never said by his death human are saved. U wont find a single verse Jesus stated that his death is the only way to salvation.
In fact Jesus said by following his teaching and worship the God that he himself worship and by doing good deeds and repent and pray to God is the only way to be saved by 1 God in heaven.
never he said by his death human is saved. anyway.. God is dead and for 3 days were decended to hell? believe me, if god is dead even a split second.. we will all be dead too as our creature has abandoned us, whats more he was ascended to hell for 3 days (dead for 3 days)!!! we cant live without God's will and his power over us. as examples.. if u turn of electricity, everything that depend on the electric source will be dead. we, as the creation depends on our source - the creator-
logically, if God is dead and we are alive, who is more powerful? we are god then, LOL!! its totally nonsense!
Christians will said "it is a symbolic (the same answer u will get if u asked them "why in 10 commandments, God FORBID us to make ANY IDOL, but why there are statue and idol of Jesus?"), u dont understand.. u must accept and believe".. why everything is symbolic??
The salvation story by Jesus death is definitely from Self-appointed disciples.. Paul. he was the one who said Jesus is crucified but if u notice, when Jesus is crucified.. NONe of his diciples eye-witnessed the crucifixion.. they ran away when Jesus was caught!!

"Christianity's 'Salvation through some dude' theory" LOL, his name is Jesus, can you say "Jesus"?
"comes from nowhere." again, LOL.
"It only exists in the New Testament." This statement is not true. If you understood what you were reading, you could see He is in the old testament as well.
" Isn't it highly likely that Satan manipulated the truth and offered people a short-cut, the easy way to Heaven to decieve them?"
This statement has some truth to it, satan has done this with false religions, but if you know Christ and His truth, you could see that.
Moses had the 10-step plan: "The 10 Commandments"
Christianity offers the 1-step plan: "Believe in Jesus" True, all you have to do is believe in Jesus.

Actually, believing in Jesus is just one step. The Gospels show us that it takes more than faith, it takes works. Also, it is not that easy to get into heaven as some might put on. God clearly tells us what requirements is needed to gain acceptance.
Satan is crafty, but powerful enough to shroud the truth that God has implemented. Satan can distort the truth, but he cant hide it.
As Christians, we are not under the Mosaic law, the gospels state that those laws were nailed to the torture stake when Jesus died. In other words, we are under a law that isn't written on tablet but should be written in our hearts. We should serve God based on love and not be written form.
The only way to know the truth is to study the bible with people that know the bible and adhere to its teachings-truthfully.

Take a good look at Isaiah 52:13-15 and chapter 53 and 54 of Isaiah. It is not just in the New Testament. It explains that he was beaten beyond human recognition and that by his strips/wounds we r healed. It explains his whole sufferings in those Chapters and some things we get out of Him dying.

John 8:32 Says you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
The devil is a liar and his "gig" is that you can get something for nothing in life and you don't have to be accountable for your actions.
Ask God to show himself to you and Jesus is not some "dude" He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and He cares about you.
Open your heart to God.

Since god inspired the writing of the bible that you quoted, how do you know that god isn't just touting propaganda against the devil? God is an admitted murder of babies and killing many millions by drowning (a horrific way to die). Yet in the teachings of the bible, there are no passages that Lucifer has ever done such atrocious acts of murder. So I say the converse is true, how can you trust what you read in the bible.

All religions have only imagination working for them and do not want to believe in reality of this planet. Because they manipulated the basic truths the religions have become politics.

If Satan is who he is purported to be in the bible, the bible was written by Satan and Jesus is Satan in the flesh.
The bible clearly states that Satan wants to be worshiped as God and will tell any lie, perform any miracle or do anything else he needs to do to get people to worship him as God.
Christians reject God the Father and surrender their souls to his "son." Satan is God's only "son."
additional comment:
The Ten Commandments say nothing about worshiping three Gods, or God's "son." They specifically state "Thou shalt not have any other Gods before me." (or words to that effect, depending on interpretation)
Christians do not worship "God, the Father," they worship the Great Deceiver.

This is truth you must be born again of the water and spirit, baptized in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins must be filled with the holy ghost with the evidence of tongues, what other truth do you not understand
