The resurrection is the salvific moment, but it cannot be understood outside of Jesus' life. If Jesus had no mission, but was simply killed, the resurrection wouldn't have made any sense. But because Jesus lived the way he did, and died a death consistent with that living, the ressurection was God's ratification of Jesus' life. We cannot understand salvation outside of Jesus' life-death-resurrection. So, yes, Jesus' death and resuurection communicate God's salvation, but so too did Jesus' life.

Yes, both are necessary for salvation in addition to the Atonement.
Without the Saviour's death and resurrection we could not be resurrected at the Second Coming because this action broke the bonds of death.
The Atonement is necessary because through it the Saviour took on all our sins at Gethsemane allowing us the chance to return and live with him (Eternal Life).

I believe so, yes. That was His purpose established before the foundation of the world. The symbols of the blood sacrifices throughout the bible would be meaningless unless Jesus was the Lamb of God, as John's gospel says.

We can say that according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified by sprinkling with blood. Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins.
Hebrews 9:22

For Christ has entered into heaven itself to appear now before God as our Advocate. He did not go into the earthly place of worship, for that was merely a copy of the real Temple in heaven. Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, like the earthly high priest who enters the Most Holy Place year after year to offer the blood of an animal. If that had been necessary, he would have had to die again and again, ever since the world began. But no! He came once for all time, at the end of the age, to remove the power of sin forever by his sacrificial death for us.
Hebrews 9:24-26

According to Romans 10:9-10 a person must believe in the death of Jesus on the cross, and that He was risen from the dead to be saved !

It also states that a person must confess with there mouth the Jesus of the bible to be the Lord (God and master) of their life (and renounce Self as Lord) to be saved.

For with the heart a person believes and is justified and with the mouth one confesses the Lordship of (the Jesus of the Bible) Jesus, unto Salvation. Romans 10:9-10.

The death and resurrection are indicators that believers rise from the dead to eternal life. Salvation occurs by grace alone.

enable's be careful to no longer separate Jesus from God. this is God who sacrificed Himself for our sins, no longer God sacrificing some non-god person. God took our sins upon Himself interior the guy of Jesus, the suitable sacrifice, upon the bypass. And, no, God ought to no longer have replaced His recommendations and made up another plan on the final minute. some have puzzled, "Why did God ought to make Christianity so complicated?" yet God did no longer "make up" something. He basically incorporates issues out in accordance to the info that exist. we ought to remember, continually, that God placed the finished plan in place until eventually now the introduction of the worldwide. Christ's dying on the bypass replaced into no longer a contingency plan basically in case Adam sinned. God continually knew Adam might sin. God continually knew He might grow to be a guy to supply the suitable sacrifice. this is pointless to take a position what God "ought to" have achieved. God could have destroyed the earth and provided mercy to no person for the forgiveness of sins. Thank God He chosen to no longer! Thank God that the sacrifice has been made as quickly as and for all and that all and sundry who come to faith, admit their sin-guilt and phone on His call would be stored! Our information of the atonement will continually be limited. yet people who've been made alive with Christ (Eph. 2:5) are desirous to easily have a superb time in His present of salvation, offered with Divine blood. As for people who declare there are various the form to salvation — that should basically be genuine if Christianity untrue. remember that Jesus suggested, "i'm the way, the certainty and the existence. no person includes the daddy different than by using me."

Yes. It was God coming to earth as man and living sinless as man, death, and resurrection that make atonement for us with God. This is the only way.. it was done once and for all. All we need to do is believe it ans accept Jesus as Lord.

I've heard it said this way, Jesus could have pricked His pinky finger and sqeezed out one tiny drop of blood and that would have been enough to save mankind, past present and future. however His death was more than just our salvation. His death was to break the powers of death and the grave. (He died and came back to life) His death was to show us our sin (so we could see where we were in God's eyes without Him)

Yes, the death of a perfect life buys back what Adam lost.

Yes it is necessary. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice, without a sacrifice there is no forgiveness of sin, without forgiveness of sin there is no salvation.
