God miraculously impregnated a virgin with his child that he will have killed to absorb the sins that he invented and allows mankind to commit.
That story is one of the biggest loads of steaming BS currently being perpetrated on the human race. Read it again. Don't you Christians realize how ridiculous you sound? What a convoluted load of nonsense.

If you were god...and it was your sons blood...would you allow any other way of forgiveness? The sacrifice of the innocent animals was a way of teaching that sin required that a penalty be paid, and not vegetables or good deeds. It required blood, or life. The old law is that the soul that sins, it shall die. The elaborate system of a priesthood, and an altar, and a sacrifice...were not accidents or barbarism, but a way to teach that some day a savior would appear who would be the LAMB of God. You do not understand it, so you ridicule it. You have the chance to research and reconsider. Then think again...if it were your son...who died for the sins of the world...would you allow any other way of salvation to work, or would you insist that there is only one Name by which we may be saved? Another point you may have missed: our human blood is tainted with sin. It is similar to counterfeit money. No good in the market. The blood of Jesus was without sin...good money. With that price paid, God could purchase our salvation, redeem our lives from the hand of the devil, and restore the "years the moth has eaten, and the locust destroyed". This is so much better than trusting a god who is so haphazard about who might be saved that no one can know for sure during this life. Also, why bear the guilt of sin when there is no need to do so? In the book, Pilgrims Progress, by Bunyan....the burdon of sin was almost the death of the Pilgrim. It rolled of in the shadow of the cross. There was still a life to be lived, and a goal to pursue...but the burdon of sin and guilt were taken away. I wish this experience for you.

So, are you healthy? you seem to think that the original sin was God's fault? It might be that you missed a few thoughts in the book about who's fault it was that caused man to loose his standing in the garden? God will eradicate these afflictions, but not on your terms, you wanted to rule yourself and use God in a way that suits you, you want your own time table, If you have ever prayed this prayer Mathew 6:9,10 then you would know that the answer to the prayer is at Revelation 21:3,4. You would rather blame God for these things, than work for a universal cure that Revelation 21 promises.

The reason Jesus' death was acceptable for sin was because Jesus was God and was saving ALL of humanity, not just one human.
What do you mean "God will not accept a human death to cure Aids?" Who are you to propose the terms of such an agreement? Has anyone actually proposed this to God and have proof of His rejection?
Have you forgotten that death and disease are the result of OUR original sin? Aids is not God's fault.

Darling, darling, darling...
Have you ever seen a photo of HIV?
I'm just doing research elsewhere at the same time. If Lazarus, for example, were not really dead, just sleeping, as Jesus said, but his "death" referred to the deadly attentions of doctors, if they can get their hands on you (I've been 'diagnosed' with AIDS and yet it was retribution for having reported a rape - by a real doctor too!). It's the doctors you've got to be scared of, bedside manner and all. Compare Proverbs 26:23 - "Like a coating of glaze over earthenware are fervent lips with an evil heart."
Mark 7:20-23 shows what contributes to good or poor health.
You don't believe in faith healing, do you? It doesn't happen in big show tents, or if it does, it doesn't happen because of show tents. It was Judas who wanted land so he could help the poor. Jesus just treated people like they deserved health. That's what's missing most of the time.
Have you heard comments by overweight people that they feel like they are "expected" to be the big person in their group of friends? Weight loss programs are not about telling people how to exercise. They're about giving people "permission" to change their identity, and a fair cash injection to the goddess of "people who tell you there's something wrong with you are only doing it for your own good" doesn't hurt according to those fitness freaks either.
The things people do for health are amazingly dumb! There was a guy on TV the other night linking elbows with two other men, dragging them along for a run until they felt nauseous. The Bible says at Hebrews 12:1 - "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." Otherwise, there's Luke 21:34 - "Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap," or 1 Peter 4:3 - "For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry," or in regards to running, there's the next verse - "In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you."

It's so frustrating and confusing when you do not know your maker, I'm sure. You will go on with many unsettled questions without satisfying answers til the day you die, what a life!! Turn to TRUTH, turn to a solid foundation for your life = Jesus Christ. He will give you understanding and remove the veil on your eyes thru The Holy Spirit given by God to those who call on Him. "Do not lean on your own understanding, but on the Word of God"

well God didn't require Jesus to do that, he chose to do that because he believed in us as people to do right. when people don't do right they have consequences and punishments and maybe thats our punishment for not living the God wants us to live. Everything good and evil only goes on because God allows it. Its apart of life now because we got people who choose not to wait to have sex until marriage, so when you get an std or something thats your fault for not waiting. and if you're one of those people who didn't wait and you don't have a disease jus be thankful. and as far as a disease like cancer, thats not God thats the devil

And like most Humans you're going and saying what God does and doesn't allow... Jesus' sacrifice was an example.
How do you know God wouldn't allow those healthy people to make that sacrifice... did you ask God?
You seem to be making alot of assumptions (assumptions are the mother of all f-ups) and jumping to conclusions (when you jump to conclusions you can't see where you're landing).
Maybe 'your' god is like that...

Most cancers are caused by what we do to our bodies, what we eat, and how we live. Most cancers are just a deprivation of a mineral or nutrient that our bodies need. AIDs was developed in Ft Detreck in Maryland so the Globalists can wipe out the "blackies". Btw, cancer is curable, use vitamin B17. God afflicted diseases onto humans, and he gave them a cure. Btw, Kent Hovind is a good man. There is no law requiring you to pay IRS taxes. The money only goes to the Globalists and mbanking cartel who wants to take over the world under a 1 world government.

Who do you think created cancer & Aids anyway? Besides mortal men just don't have the Oooomph. They are just one of many and they die anyway. So no big deal - their lives are not worth the trade.
