The first thing that someone should be considering is whether the idea of sin is actually real.
If God is supposed to be perfect how could She have made anything or anyone that wasn't.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.
First it assumes a God who is too incompetent to organize a simple educational field excursion and figure out a way to get all of the students home safely.
How likely is this that God would not be smart enough to come up with a plan for our salvation that is going to work?
It also assumes that God must have created us imperfect if we are sinners.
One might assume that God would be able to create someone perfect each and every time if he chose to. Assuming God is capable of this, then it follows logically that we must be perfect creations if we are actually creations of this perfect God.
Unless of course you are saying that God chose to create us imperfect.
If God created us imperfect then anything that may go wrong is Gods fault, not ours. This seems a bit illogical at best so I think that we need to assume that What God creates would have to be perfect.
If this is the case and Gods creations are perfect, then nothing that we can do could change what God created perfect and make it imperfect unless we think that we are more powerful than God is.
How likely is it that we the creation could be more powerful than the creator. I personally find this idea somewhat amusing, and a bit absurd.
Religion tells us that God is perfect. If this is true then it could hardly be logically for Gods creations to be considered to be anything less than perfect.
If this is the case then Nothing that we can ever do could possibly change this perfection that God willed, unless we were so powerful that our choices could override and change the will of God.
How likely is that????
Think about it.
The idea of sin is simple nonsense; a lie made up about God by religion.

I too have been working in this question for a while. i've got faith I even have made a minimum of a few progression. After fairly examining rather some the Bible returned now at 40 9, through fact the 1st time I study any i became decrease than 12. The thoughts as a rule have the comparable matters, do stable, be stable on your heart, safeguard your loved ones, domicile, u . s . a ., be stable and attractiveness to others yet do not enable them to take too plenty benefit of you. If God had a recognition that ment something, perhaps it could be result. I understand that, i think of it rather is actual. Now they someway mandatory the thank you to "wash away sin" so human beings does not be paralyzed with the help of regrets, sacrifices did that, carry this all forward and you have the full this rather stable element can die for a number of those undesirable issues and make all of it ok, yet given which you suspect it does. Yep, reality. It does in case you suspect it does, in case you do not, you may desire to have the potential to suck up your person errors, study from them, and alter your self. it rather is a tall order for rather some human beings. it fairly is much less complicated if some phantom spirit of stable interior of us all named Jesus does it. even with the reality that, I nonetheless think of the guidelines for existence interior the Bible, additionally modern-day in different faiths, strengthen ones opportunities of an prolonged, satisfied, gratifying, valuable existence and a stable launch for one's teenagers. So, rather, i think interior the top, it gets you to a place you may desire to be to bypass forward without having to slog your person way with the aid of debilitating guilt, be apologetic approximately and the discomfort of wasted time. eternal existence? i for my section do not understand for particular, I do sense some thing particularly magical approximately existence, I constantly have. I choose our industry became not so detrimental to it, i've got faith we are on our way down and out. i don't think of waiting for Jesus to return back and save us is the terrific answer shall we arise with.

We can never truly repay this.
But anyone can show their thankfulness for this gift through loving and serving God with all our heart, mind, and strength. This is what Jesus died for on the cross, to make it possible for us to have a relationship with Him. He died to bridge the gap that our sins made between us and God.

I think your assuming he died willingly as you said. More probably, he was killed because he threatened the established church of the time. Think. God gave us a brain to use!
The best thing I can do is not focus on some other worldly fantasy of me owing anyone; rather I can focus on the actions and attitudes that has inspired so many people to follow him. He really had a message other than the popular "cant get into heaven with out me" crap that is flung at people today. That message is purely to control others...think about it. Think.
Cheers!

I think by devoting our lives to following the truth, way, and the life of Jesus, living our lives along the path he has paved for us, and to repent for our sins, and praising him, and only him.

I don't' think he sacrificed himself on the cross bar.. He was hoisted like a flag on the pole to show people how an ignorant man will be treated if he assumes to be son of god.....

Presenting my body as a living sacrifice. (Rom 12:1) He would not ask us to do anything He would not do Himself.
