How is god sending jesus to be murdered any different from Muslims clerics sending out suicide bombers?

Question

They both have that self-righteous 'I'm out to save the world through death' attitude.

The end result is more people getting killed.

I fail to see how the cowardly act of ordering someone else to die to promote your political agenda is ok in one sense, but not ok in another.

Oh, am I supposed to give god a break because he's supposedly so 'holy and peace loving'?

Answer 1

Muslim clerics are not GOD. Your god or mine!
They are murderers of their own people and the
people these suicide bombers kill.
Your clerics are cowards, because they send,
order other people to their death but save their own life's.
Hiding behind their holiness.
What ever religion you belief in, is okay with me, but killing
other people for their beliefs is wrong. No matter who
your GOD is.

Answer 2

God sent Jesus to be an individual sacrifice for others. Suicide bombers are sent to kill others (and die in the process). Kinda seems like opposing ideas don't it?

And do you really think a God needs or wants a break from you? It's okay to have these arguments, but you really must acquire some better theological knowledge. I'm not saying you have to believe anything, but so you can make an intelligent argument.

Answer 3

there are so many things you don't understand about what we believe.
Jesus came to earth willingly to sacrifice himself for our sins. He did not kill himself, nor did He teach us to be violent.

Speaking of self-righteous, read the way you're presenting your opinions, and tell me if you might seem self-righteous to a lot of people.

I'm guessing you don't know much about what Jesus taught before He was killed. If you did, you may think better of Christianity. Christianity has been given a bad name because of all the Christians who ignore the teachings of Jesus. The end result of what Jesus did would not have been more people dying if people had really understood what He was trying to teach. I think you must also not think of how brutal things were back in the days of the early church. People killed for no good reason, and a lot of Christians were killed just for being Christians. People are still being tortured and killed around the world today for being Christians. Do you think all that hate towards us is because we're a threat to society. you probably do. but I would challenge you to read one of the gospels and form an opinion about Jesus based on that. I think you'd see that some "Christians" are not really following Christ, and if they did, you'd like them more.

Answer 4

First of all, the God of the Bible is three persons in one: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus is different from a suicide bomber because He is both God and man--able to live a sin-free life and to die in our place for our sins and able to rise from the dead. Jesus freely submitted to the will of the Father (perhaps not unlike a suicide bomber in one way, and in another, completely different--because He actually "ordered" Himself to die in our place. Those ordering suicide bombers aren't themselves dying). So much more was at stake for the death of Jesus than for a suicide bomber--as in salvation for all of humanity.

You don't need to give God a "break." You either accept Him and how He tells us things work in this universe, or you reject Him and what He tells us. He doesn't order you to do anything, but allows you to choose freely.

Answer 5

Good question. Just my thoughts not a conviction....Supposedly Jesus only sacrificed himself while suicide bommers don't care who else must die to achieve thier goals. Supposidly Jesus knew and chose to sacrifice only himself in order to give others a chance to come back to God. If suicide bommers are all for the principles of their religion, why not convert instead kill, or why not give the opportunity to mend their ways in order to conform?

Answer 6

Jesus' wrongful death harmed no one except Satan, who was responsible for it, and it made possible the freedom and salvation of humanity.

Anyone who can't see the difference between this and suicide bombers who kill and maim the innocent needs to get some professional help.

Answer 7

Jesus dying wasn't POLITICAL, it was to save our eternal souls! Suicide bombers take others with them, Jesus died as a substitution in your place and mine as a ransom because our souls are so precious and valuable...obviously something you haven't understood yet friend!
You give God a break? PLEASE! in what ways? don't make me laugh! we take advantage of His goodness and mercy everyday without so much as a thank You or a thought as to what our lives cost the God of all creation. You should be on your knees thanking Him that He is so Holy and Peace loving....or the whole lot of us would be where we all deserve to be, and that's in hell, with no reprieve, instead He gave us a way out. You'd be wise to take it!

Answer 8

in accordance to a similar thought of understanding the destiny, He knew stunning then whilst becoming Adan and Eve they might eat the forbidden fruit, the earth may be populated, human beings might act against his will by making use of giving them "unfastened will" yet nevertheless punishing for not doing his will, human beings might finally attain a factor that could require him to return as Jesus, which may be sacrificed for the sins he knew on the 2d of becoming Adan or perhaps they might dedicate....etc the question is, if there's a God, what's the interest he's enjoying? seems relaxing

Answer 9

Because according to the new testament, Jesus was without sin. Those in the Muslim religion are just as much sinners as the christians and the jews and everybody for that matter. But because he was without sin, it was the ultimate sacrifice.

Or so says the bible at least.

Answer 10

There's a clear difference: Jesus came willing to be sacrified; Muslim suicide nuts want to sacrifice YOU.
