I'm sure more than one religious zealot will take this question literally instead of understanding its deeper meaning.

"Jesus Had A Bad Weekend For Your Sins" just doesn't have any pizazz!

2006-12-09 17:41:41 · answer #1 · answered by Laptop Jesus 4 · 5 0

Actually, he seperated his religion from all the rest by doing this. Now today people teach the church does not do this any more but God's church believes this is possible and will do this also. No other church leader had power over death and the grave to give life. No church can claim this power because they are all false. The Bible does teach Jesus's church has this power but no one believes it the way it is written;Mark16:15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Raising the dead was very common in the early days of the church, Paul the writter of most of the New Testiment was killed many times and raised from the dead. He was stoned to death by religious people.II Cor.11:22Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
23Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
24Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
25Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;

Matthew 10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
John 12:9
Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
This was the solution the church had for Lazarus being raised from the dead and today is no different. Notice which church do you know of that doesn't beg for money and compare that to freely give???

Well, let me get you the deeper meaning, wise guy:

He died for our sins, yes.
The fact that He came back to life doesn't undo the fact that He did go through the whole painful dying thing, and that's what's important, 'cause the whole reason His dying made a difference at all was that the death act was the penalty for the sins. Since He didn't have any sins of His own, that made Him a perfect sacrifice, so His death paid for what we did... For those of us who choose to believe in Him.

Shalom Alucard,

You are in error, no one can die for you sins. What parent teaches their child that if they commit a bad deed that someone else is going to pay for it? Same can be said for this Jesus-God doctrine that originates from pagan Rome. Jesus came to present the pattern of fulfilling the royal law since everyone was incapable of fulfilling it on their own. Or this is to say, that anyone who fulfilled it would of been called christ/messiah.

You should ask yourself what is sin? What has James the Just given? To know good and do it not is sin or in other words knowledge not lived is sin. For one to believe they can perpetually commit sins and knowingly do so are in grave error.

"But if he shall have sinned once, twice, or thrice, they shall reject that soul, sending it back again into the world according to the form of the sins that it may have committed; the form whereof I will declare unto you hereafter. But verily, verily I say unto you, that even the righteous man that hath committed no sin at all cannot be brought into the Kingdom of Light, forasmuch the seal of the mysteries of that kingdom is not found upon him. Once for all, I say unto you, a soul cannot be brought into the kingdom, if it be without the mysteries of the Kingdom of the Light”.(Books of the Saviour or Pistis Sophia).

And also in regards to the resurrection, you can only be resurrected while your in the body. Your are greatly mistaken if you believe other wise. Believing so is like one expecting a fetus to grow and develop on the floor outside the mothers womb. Again you will receive nothing when you die without experiencing the resurrecting while your alive.

"Those who say that first they shall die and (then) they shall arise are confused. If they do not first receive the resurrection (while) they live,¹ they will not receive anything (when) they die." (Gospel of Phillip)

Peace

Aza

I got to tell you, I look at lots of these questions and this is one of the few that make me go hummmm. I guess from a legal standpoint I would have to say yes. I remember a case from a few years back where a dude serving a life sentence in prison had a heart attack and died. Shortly there after he was revived and it was argued in court that he had completed his life sentence. Kinda makes ya go hmmmm don't it?

Why ask the question and then criticize people for their answer? Just wondering but in response to your question, no it does not reverse it and I don't see the deeper meaning. Read your bible and you will understand.

No.

One thing I hear a lot is that "Jesus would have died if you were the only person on earth who needed saving."

What about all those people who died in the million years before Jesus?


Obviously Jesus's death itself was not the thing which brought about salvation, but was rather representative of it.

Jesus died in body and resurrected in spirit. Our original sin is still forgiven.

Jesus died and was resurrected it is by faith that we too believe we will be resurrected. Jesus sacrificed his flesh and literaly died the same as we will die.We also will be resurrected.
