Answer 1

The first question is quite hard to answer in plain english because it's to do with the Trinity. ie God the father, son and holy spirit. The easiest way I can put it is that we 'make' things but 'beget' children. We can 'make' a statue that looks like a human but it isn't. And we can only 'beget' things of our own kind. For example, when two human parents have a child, that child will also be human. Not a zebra..for example. Jesus was begotton by God, not created. Therefore, he was fully God like his Father. Like how a human father has a kid and that kid is fully human. Make sense? So the two are separate but also One. Jesus was doing the will of his Father and that's why he calls out to him on the cross.

He's in pain because the Bible says he emptied himself of his deity and as well as being fully God, became also fully human. So he suffered as humans do, experienced emotions as humans do etc. He had to live a sinless life and then die for our sins as a human for our salvation.

The taking of sins thing means that whenever we slip up, there is ALWAYS forgiveness available and always an opportunity to make up for our mistakes. However, if we deliberately keep on sinning, that proves that we haven't really accepted Jesus at all. In the book of James, it says that faith without actions is dead. If you believe in God, that will work itself out in your deeds. If it doesn't, you're probably not a Christian at all.

Answer 2

Hey good question,

Ive been a christian for all of my life (15 years) and still have my struggles like everyone. It is good that ur seeking out answers, everyone should do that! Alright God and Jesus. Jesus is Gods only son that he sent to earth to represent Him, but Jesus actually isnt Him. If that makes any sense. He is more a representative of God. Jesus calls out to God i think because God has let go of him (having his hand upon his life i guess). God has turned away from Jesus and on the cross he took everyones sins. He is in pain because of all the sin in the world is on him. In the last minute Jesus becomes sin and ends up going to hell for 3 days. Yes i know it is hard to believe, but that is where faith comes in.

Now with taking sins i guess tecnically if we are really sorry we could keep doing wrong and getting forgiven. But that wouldnt be worth doing because God says that by doing good things and listening to Him we get rewarded and blessed by Him. That is a promise by Him to us, so thats why most Christians try to do right, not saying that we do wrong and bad things. I bike ride, listen to non-christian music watch really gorey and violent movies, being a Christian doesnt mean you have to completly change your lifestyle, im not a stereotype Christian and neither are many people today. We enjoy our lives and do what non-christians do (not necassirly to a huge extent eg....get drunk every night, have one night stands etc....) but we have fun and have the best thing on our sides. God

Answer 3

According to the Bible Jesus is the Son of God, both Jesus and God say so(John10:36 ; Matthew3:16,17 ; John14:28) And the last question No Jesus sacrifice for our sins does not mean that Christians can do whatever they want and still have God's favour. This is something Satan wants people to believe so that they will go to his way of doing things against God.

Answer 4

Christian Authorities claim that that God, Jesus and the Holy spirit are a trinity, but they are also one thing. Hard to understand but if I wasn't spoon fed it as a child I wouldn't understand it either. Christian believe in One God. We believe Jesus is the prophet of God and also his son. The Holy Spirit can be described as the power and spirituality of God. Now these things relate because the Holy Spirit is Gods power, Jesus is the son of God and had some of God's powers therefore is linked to the holy spirit... this shows the links in the trinity.

He called out to God on the cross because although they are one in the same they are also God and Jesus, God stays up in heaven and Jesus was dieing on earth asking his father why he is dieing for doing what he was supposed to.

This would make no sense to a normal person, but it is drilled in the minds of Christians so they believe it. And in Christian Tradition you can sin all you want as long as you go to the church to repeant and you will go to heaven.

I am christian but leaning towards Agnosticism becuase of how ridiculous Christianity can be.

Answer 5

Well, we have a unique experience with Jesus, who took on the form of a man, though he was God. The scriptures show that Jesus 'emptied himself' to take on the form of Jesus of Nazareth. So at times, Jesus was talking as that man, who was prophecied, and was fulfilling prophecies.

By your example, the prophecy he was fulfilling by calling out to God is called the "Suffering Servant" aspect of what the Messiah is to us. It is found here in the Old Testament:
Psalm 22
1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

He was quoting it. As he did throughout his ministry. It has been determined that Jesus quoted from the Septuagint, and ancient Greek translation of what we call the Old Testament. (They didn't call it the Old Testament back then, that's just what we call it now.)

So Jesus was fulfilling prophecies, and in this case, it was one from what we now call, Psalm 22:1.

"and this "taking your sins"thing ,does that mean christians can do whatever they want without fear of going to hell???"
You see, with what is called 'repentence' , we turn our will, as much as possible over to God. What that does is change us by the effect of the Holy Spirit -- which is God's Spirit. He promised that the Holy Spirit would live in us and would do certain things, one of those things is that we become considered his. Under His ownership.

When that happens he begins to change us, and the things that we might tend to do may change, but according to his plan for us personally. For one person it may be stealing, or another lying. Whatever God has in mind for each of us. Eventually, the nature that makes us do wrong things becomes less, and the nature that makes us God's people increases.

So that's what I don't tend to judge my bretheren as much as they seem to be judging me, because I know that whatever it is that they are doing God is dealing with, and the same goes for me.

If something is unclear, please feel free to e-mail me, I will explain better.

Answer 6

In order for humanity to be redeemed God had to become one of us as there was no-one in the entire human race after Adam who was without sin and so only a sinless sacrifice would redeem us, God became man in Jesus Christ, and Jesus had two natures one divine and the other fully human.
He put Himself under the complete authority of God the Father by humble submission and humility to counter the disobedience of Adam and us as well, the human nature of Jesus cried out on the cross and not the divine nature.

Answer 7

Jesus calls out to God because when He was on the cross He took all of our sins. Up to that point, he was perfect, unblemished by our human sin. But, just as God turned His back on Adam and Eve when they sinned, God turned His back on Jesus when He received our sins because He could no longer be one with His Son since sin got in the way. This doesn't mean that God ignores us, however. It simply means He cannot fully connect with us until we take Jesus into our hearts to give up our sin and have a "clear connection" to God.

It's kinda like looking at someone behind a veil, you can see the person, but it isn't clear. But then, someone comes and takes away the veil and you can see the other person clearly, right? Sin is like the veil, and the two people are us and God. The person taking away the veil is Jesus, but, you have to let Him take it away.

And no, Christians cannot do whatever they want. God gave us commandments and ways of life to follow. Can we keep them all? No, we're flawed just like everyone else in the world, but we do try to keep them to be respectful to God. We just won't receive punishment for our sins because we let Jesus take them away.

All you need to do is believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God, and that He died for you to save you from sin and give you an eternal life with Him. Simple as that.

If you have anymore questions, you can e-mail me ([e-mail]), or seek out a pastor at a local Protestant church (I would suggest a non-denominational church so no extra agendas are thrown at you in the beginning.)

Have a great day, mate. God Bless.

Hello and allow me please to address this "If" of yours first, in Hebrews 13:8 we understand Jesus Christ has always been with The Father, in Hebrews 1:5-9 The Father Himself address Him as God, in John 8:58 He is addressed as The
I AM of Exodus 3, Moses and the burning bush and John 1, we understand that He is the one that created us and this world, it was He that walked with Adam and Eve, it was He in Gen.3 that gave the worlds first prophecy that someday He would come and destroy the works of the devil, and it was that same person that came and gave up His divine body and took a body just like ours, and when He returned to Heaven He kept that same body WITH the marks He got while Here, "by His stripes we are healed 1 Pet.2:4" and i hope i explained it well enough so you can understand and
AVOID someones "explaining" that DOES NOT include bible text "WITHOUT" taking anything out of context THAT IS DANGEROUS because as it says in Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, [it is] because [there is] no light in them.

Answer 9

Jesus is part of the Trinity. He is the Son of God. In alot of verses and chapters, He says He is God, but we are to pray to God through Jesus Christ, as he said in one verse. In the Trinity there is the God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. It takes all three to make up the Trinity, kind of like and egg, it has a shell, a white and a yolk, but all three are needed to make the egg whole and this is kind of a crazy comparison, but this is how it works.

Answer 10

It doesn't make sense IMO, it really doesn't, I've just never understood why Jesus being tortured by humans, means that humans would not be tortured by the devil (whose punishment is meant to be uncomprehendable) And yes, I also believe it makes it sound like Christians can do whatever they want as long as the believe that Jesus is the son of god.
