Why are certain Christians concerned about WHO killed Jesus?

Question

First of all I am a Christian.
Secondly this was the reason Jesus came to Earth , to die. What difference does it make who killed Him? Alot of people miss the whole point.

To Neptune: The scales will be removed from the Jews eyes. EVERY knee will bow, EVERY mouth confess, that Jesus Christ is LORD, when the appropriate time comes.

Answer 1

I don't think the problem is the Christians, We know the reason Jesus died and do no question it. The ones that question the death I would say are the ones who profess to be Christians but have no idea what Christianity is all about, they profess, they just don't obsess

Answer 2

By the time the Gospels were written down, the Christians were getting pretty mad at the Jews for not converting. At first, they were the same people, but the Jesus-followers thought Jesus was the Messiah, and the regular Jews did not. They were still pretty close at first, but after a few decades had passed, the Jesus-followers were upset because the rest of the Jews still didn't think that Jesus was the Messiah.

When the Gospels were written, about 60 years after Jesus' death, the Christians were using pretty mean rhetoric so they "blamed" the Jews for Jesus' death. This was how literature was at the time, even though everyone knew that that the Jews didn't literally kill Jesus. Furthermore, the Gospel writers didn't want to anger the Romans, so they made the Romans's responsibility minimal in the stories.

Answer 3

Because they lack the true connection to G*d. People will always be biased. Some are biased because they are lazy and let others do the thinking for them. Some are just ignorant. Either way, just because they pray, go to church, or call themself a Christian, it does not mean they are a true Christian. You have to follow all the teaching of Christ to be a true Christian. Most often forget that Christ forgave the people who killed him, so why can't they?

Answer 4

I think you are missing the point, because God's chosen people refused to believe him he turned to the Gentiles. Remember he was promised to the people of Israel (not the country). Israel consisted of 12 tribes, descendants of Abraham, and Jesus was promised to be from the house of David, and he was. Gentiles were what we call today atheists none believers, many were converted to God's way by the works of Jesus Christ our Lord who became our Saviour, and they were known and called Christians because they followed Jesus' teachings.

Answer 5

Perhaps these Christians have a point (agenda) to prove or watch too many detective shows on TV.

Yes it seems they have entirely missed the point.

Answer 6

Ignorance.
If you want to know who killed Jesus look in the mirror. Everytime you lie, cheat, worship money etc. you are driving a nail through his hand,

Answer 7

I too am Christian, and some of our fellow Believers miss a lot of points on a lot of issues.... But that's the nature of organized religions. It's all muddy....... Who knows?!

Answer 8

AMEN TO THAT. IT WAS HIS PURPOSE TO BE A LIVING SACRIFICE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD. SO DOES IT MATTER JUDAS BETRAYED HIM OR THE RELIGIOUS PEOPLE OF JUDAISM OR THE ROMANS CARRIED OUT THIS PURPOSE. TRUST ME IF THE devil HAD A CLUE THAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE THE END RESULT, JESUS WOULDN'T HAVE DIED ON THE CROSS.

Answer 9

Are you sure they're really Christian?

I'm a Christian and the only person I'm pointing to as responsible for His death is ME.

Answer 10

wow i never herd such a thing. People need to realize that God had a plan and we never know why he REALY allowed those soldiers to crusify him.
