If jesus is god and jesus died to forgive our sins and it was god (who is himself) who was doing the forgiving (who is omnipotent) why couldn't god just forgive sin anyway? Also if god created the world and was omniscient doing so he created a world that would have sin in it so he wanted the sin to be there or he wouldn't have created it (or things that encourage it). So god was tortured on the cross to apologies to himself for his mistake? Seems a bit stupid to me.

First lets get to your "IF" word, Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever Hebrews 13:8, and the first few verses of John 1 say He is indeed God, When mankind sinned it was as it were pulling the plug of life, the wadges or natural results of sin is death, God placed Himself in mankinds place so we can "IF" we live up to the conditions of life offered find our way to Heaven, no "IF" is not the Word of God HE DID INDEED create this world do you have kids, did you get a written promise they would never do anything that you told them not to do, that they would love and obey you forever, no God gave us a choice, Love must NOT be forced it is ONLY when it is from choice that love is given. God died the death we should have died so we [YOU] can have the life He should have had, For God [The Father] "SO" Loved you that HE gave [Jesus Gave Himself] so "IF" you will BE-LIVE in Him should not perish but have everlasting life Jn. 3:16, Jesus made NO MISTAKE He gave what NO ONE could have taken, free bible lessons www.itiswritten.com bible questions www.bibleinfo.com talk to me wgr88@yahoo.com God bless

Because GOD wanted to give free will a chance, even though he knows the ending it does not mean the variables are not constantly changing. what kind of fun would it be if everyone were made to worship you? and who says GOD has ever looked at the end? His ways are not our ways. we can only apply our own logic to our own questions. It was JESUS the MAN that cried out on the cross asking why he was forsaken.

First of all, Jesus did not die for His sins. He was blameless in the sight of the law. God's law that is.
Jesus was sacrificed for the forgiveness of our sins.
As to God forgiving sin just on a whim. No can do.For God to be just he must uphold the law. He cannot have sinners in His presence. That is why he sent His son Jesus to die upon the cross.

This is a simple (yet sloppy) question. I'll try to be as basic as possible... (no offense - of course if you are serious about knowing the answer)
1. God created man.
2. God gave man free will, because he wouldn't want to be a slave driver and MAKE you believe in him.
3. Man got real sloppy in his actions (deceit, lies, boastfulness, rejection to GOd's request, committing satanic acts and saying it was God's will - the things that Satan taught them to do)
4. God sent his spirit to earth, wrapped in flesh. the spirit was born and named Jesus.
5.Jesus saved alot of lives and taught many.
6.Unfortunately, man was too caught up in the comfort of his wicked ways. Man felt threathened that Jesus would force them to giving up those ways.
7.Jesus knew that - despite the opportunities he got to save everyone, Man (for the most part) will kill him.
8.Jesus allowed himself to be captured, and taken through a circus court and tortured.
9. Jesus took on all types of sins (and rage) from Man, only to be hung on the cross.
10. Instead of Man dying for the sins he would ever commit, Jesus took on the impact himself, and asked God (his father) to forgive us for everything (if we believe).
11.Jesus died, and for this display of love, he revived and taken to heaven to intercede on our behalf.
12. The Holy Spirit, another part of God was sent to earth, by Jesus, to help those (whom believe) to understand God's word.
Believe.

That's because the Trinity doctrine is a false doctrine that orginated in ancient Babylon, the birth place of false religion. Jesus is not God. He is the son of God.
Thus the scripture: "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son, in order that everyone excerising faith in him will not destroyed but have everylasting life" (John 3:16)
Jesus is describes as the "image of the invisible God, the first born of all creation"(Col.1:15) Christ was created, thus being called the only-begotten son of God. Only-begotten means directly created. So Jesus is the only being directly created by God himself. God then used Jesus as his master worker to help create everything else in the world." All other things were created THROUGH him and for him" (Col. 1:16)
"In turn the head of Christ is God"(1 Cor. 11:3)
Who is God?
Psalms 83:18" You whose name is Jehovah, you ALONE are the most high over all the earth.
Deut 6:4 "Jehovah is one God"
The Holy Spirit is Jehovah's active force, not a being.
False teachings is a key element to Satan's tactics to mislead. Read your scriptures daily and never be afraid to ask questions, or you will never know the truth.
John 12:49 show Jesus as saying "because I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak.
John 14:28 The father is greater than I am.
Jesus didn't pray to himself. " Our father in the heavens" He prayed to God. He is not God but the son of God. God sent him, his firstborn son to die for our sins.
If you are a bible reader, you know that in the earlier days, true worshipers of God offer up burnt offerings of animals and animal blood for atonement for their sins. Lovingly on Jehovah's part he sent his son not only to give us a model to follow but mainly to offer himself as a sacrifice, an offering for our sins. No more do we have to go out and kill animals and offer them up to Jehovah. For he gave us the most precious thing to him. His first born, only-begotten son.(John 3:16)
By following Christ's footsteps and with his ransom sacrifice we can have a close relationship with Jehovah and thus the hope of entering into the Kingdom of God which is close at hand. With this sacrifice we are able to have a clean standing before God and with this clean standing with are able to pray to Jehovah and for him to listen to our prayers and also answer them. (Not all prayers are heard by God. Further reading of the scriptures will help you to understand why and what u need to do in order for ur prayers to be heard). We will be able to live on earth without sickness, death, sin, or suffering. What a day.
