He didn't have a son. The man Trinitarian Christians claim was God's son was not crucified either. The Jews did not kill Jesus and it is the Muslims who believe this, so why do so many Jews in Israel give the Muslims such a hard time?

John3:16 tells us that God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten Son, in order everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life! So by exercising Faith in God and his Son anyone alive today can attain everlasting life through the sacrifice of Jesus by exercising faith in God and his Sonm Jesus Christ.He is so good to us in that he has provided the way for us to be able to escape destructionand to be saved through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ his Son.

Absolutely!
God is good to us because He loves us all! Even those who don't know HIm or those who refuse to know Him. He created us from the beginning and built the generations from Adam and Eve, then rebuilt from Noah after the flood.
Jesus died for us as a sacrifice from the Father. He sent His sent to earth to save us from sin and spread the Good News about God's love and gift of everlasting life.
Jesus could have fled or disappeared from sight on the night of HIs crucifixion, but that would have proved that the hateful crowd was right for doubting Him. He knew that He was going to be crucified and let it continue to obey His Father's will, as written in the scriptures.
Matthew 26
23Jesus replied, "The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. 24The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born."
All those who hated Jesus, but repented, were forgiven. Even the thief who hung on the cross next to Jesus was forgiven when he asked Jesus to save him.
Luke 23
42Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[f]"
43Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
This is the most complete answer that I can supply. God bless you for asking with a sincere need to know the answer.

He knew what was going to happen (just as he knows your fate) from the beginning. His purpose was laid out long before Jesus's arrival (as foretold in the Old Testament). He knew man would kill His Son, and that was part of the Plan of Salvation.

The hand that held the hammer was the hand of God
it was ultimately His plan and to help the sinners who did it
alot like God sending Joseph ahead to Egypt as a slave to save
the brothers who did the evil deed of selling him...
the most evil think in some ways and the most loving thing in some ways...
its grace

Christ's death was part of God's plan from the beginning. It was necessary for the atoning sacrifice of His Son in order for us to be forgiven of our sins on condition of our repentance. Besides that, you must recognize that none of us had anything to do with that death 2.000 years ago. What we have to do is accept Christ's sacrifice on our behalf and live according to His teachings and commandments. If we learn of Him and then turn away from Him of our own choice, then are we consenting to His death and not accepting Him in our lives, thus losing the atoning benefits that He prepared for us. He suffered that we might not suffer if we would repent. But if we do not repent, then we must suffer even as He did.

It was all part of the plan created in Heaven before the world was. Jesus knew he would be sacrificed for the sins of the world before he was born. It was the only way we could all return to our Heavenly Father and justify the demands of Justice. He willingly gave his life to help his brothers and sisters return to thier Heavenly home.God is our Heavenly Father and created us all.He wants us to come back to him after our turn on this earth. He expected us to make mistakes. Thats why the plan of salvation was created.

Well, "we" didn't kill anyone. My point of view is that you can't never talk about people in general. There are good and bad people all around the world. He was killed by a group of people who didn't understand him and/or was feeling threatened by His word in some way.
