Somebody clear this up for me: People ask questions like: Aren't you mad at the Jews for killing Jesus?
But I thought Jesus died for our sins.
If they had not killed him, then how would he have died for your sins? I dont get it. Somebody explain.

Well first of all your right. Jesus did die for all of our sins. The Romans did murder Jesus but Jesus knew his death was coming. He could of easily escape but Jesus knew in order to save his people he must die on the cross. We shouldn't blame anyone for killing Jesus because we all did. We all sin and because we sin. This is why Jesus needed to die on the cross, to save us from our sins. It was all in God's will, or plan. I hope I answered some of your questions. If you have any more email me at orangejulious22@yahoo.com.

Keep in mind that the Jews asked that Jesus be killed (more specifically the Jewish religious leaders) but the Gentiles killed him (Romans). So we cannot blame the jews for killing Jesus, but rather we are all responsible because Jesus died for the sins that we all committed.

Just because the Jews found him guilty of sin doesn't mean you should have a grudge on them. If Herod found him unholy, it doesn't mean all Jews found him unholy. Each person is an individual and each individual's sin is his/her own it doesn't count for his whole race. Besides Jesus went willingly to die for us, he was powerful enough to send a bolt of lightening to kill His enemies, but He was determined to pay for our sins. He endured all these hardships and obstacles and in all He persevered, never complaining. The Jews of today did not kill Jesus, the Jews of the past did because they were too blinded with sin. Jesus went willing to die on the cross for our sins. You shouldn't thank the Jews of the past for killing Jesus in order for Him to save us, you should thank Jesus that He hadn't destroyed the jews of the past with His powers, but died willing for our sake. And Besides if we hadn't sinned Jesus wouldn't have to die for us, we all payed a role in his death.

True Christians should praise the Jews for handing him over to the Romans because without that the prophecy of his dieing for there sins would not of been fulfilled , I guess he would of just lived to a ripe old age and died .

You are right Jesus did die for our sins! The sins of the world?
You must not concern your self with foolish questions like arent you mad at the Jews for killing Jesus? That is just a foolish question, do not concern yourself with such foolishness! Here is another was Jesus black or white? Again foolishness!! Foolish questions such as these are irrelevant!! Dont you see. Concern yourself only in the truth the way and the life= JESUS CHRIST!
Learn His ways from the bible and do not just learn them live them! And trust that God is in control and do not concern your self with foolishness. God Bless You In JESUS HOLLY NAME
AMEN!

I'm not mad at the Jews. They got the job done like they always do: they offered Christ up to die.
So no, no hate for them coming from me. Besides, even if the Jews had accepted Christ, then still someone would have had him killed. That is just the way it was supposed to happen.

The Romans did the actual killing of Jesus. Gentiles.
And when any one ask me that- I tell them, that is why He came- to save us all.

Yes Christ had to shed His blood for our sins.
Jews is a term for progeny of Judah and residents of Judea. There were some calling themselves Jews who were not of Judah, which had a big part in getting Christ crucified by the Romans.
Rev 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Of the synagogue of Satan which say they are Jews.

Jesus has predicted his own death. That is God's Holy plan for him. GOD is the Almighty, All Planner.
