If Jesus was nailed and died on the cross; how it was cuz of your sins and how you are saved by this incident?

Answer 1

Excellent question.
The reason is that as sinners, every human being is already condemned to die. That means that failing to live perfect lives, up to God's holy standard, keeps us out of heaven and separated from God forever. But God doesn't want this. So how can he save us and still satisfy the just penalty of the law?
He did this by becoming a man and living a sinless life and then voluntarily taking the penalty for sins (yours and mine) even though he was not guilty.
That is his gift to you so you don't have to pay that death penalty yourself. All you have to do is accept the gift (a thank you to God would be appropriate)

Answer 2

The first sin had to be a very serious matter, Adam also had to fully understand that it was indeed very serious, and the sin also had to be committed with the full consent of Adam's will.

Finally, the consequences of that first sin had to be such that a simple apology, a pledge of repentance, and God's subsequent forgiveness, would still not be sufficient to make all things whole again.

Based on all of the above, we know that the first sin resulted in Adam's total rejection of God, and his "throwing in" with Satan, against God.

Adam even went so far as to transfer dominion of the whole earth, which God had earlier given him, over to Satan.

And since Adam enjoyed free will, God permitted him to make these choices, and to suffer the eternal consequences.

Once all this was done, Satan turned on Adam, and made a slave of him and his descendents, because, as everyone knows, all the offspring of a slave automatically belong to the master.

This presented a serious problem, because man had no ability to overcome the supernatural dominion that Satan now exercised over him.

Furthermore, God was under no obligation to provide his supernatural graces to his enemies.

Deprived of God's grace, Eden soon disappeared, Adam and Eve began to age, suffer, and die, and the world became an increasingly more hostile and forbidding place.

Mankind lived under constant threat from Satan, who was given the power of death over them, according to their free will choice, and according to God's perfect justice.

But this is not what God had in mind when he created man, so God promised to eventually send a redeemer to destroy Satan's evil dominion, forgive sins, defeat death, and restore all things.

That is exactly what Jesus did.

And the only reason Jesus could do it, when no other human ever could, was because Jesus was never "stained" by sin ... and Satan had no power at all, over one without sin.

Under God's most basic law, one without sin is not liable to die. (This was the flip-side of the same law that Adam broke, when he sinned.)

Jesus permitted Satan and his minions, the Jews and the Romans, to unjustly put him to death, knowing full well that this was the only way Satan's evil dominion could be legally destroyed, as no one, not even the devil, had the authority to take the life of a sinless man, let alone the only son of God.

Once Jesus died, Satan was judged for his great sin, stripped of all that he had earlier gained from Adam's fall, and left destitute.

Jesus was raised from the dead and appointed the new head of all mankind. God was now more than willing to forgive man's sins, and our redemption was truly at hand.

Now, anyone who rejects Satan and swears faithful allegiance to Jesus (typically through baptism) is able to have their sins forgiven, become a living temple of the Holy Spirit, and among other things, also become a member of God's own family.

The church carries on Christ's great work of redemption in the world today.

Answer 3

Christ gave us the perfect example of how we ought to live. He was the true atoning sacrifice for mankind and by his love for us he defeated the devil and his power over us. He set us free from bondage/slavery. He rose and is seated at the right hand of God Almighty and has delivered the Holy spirit into those who will except it. Greater is he who is in us than he who is in the world. He has set the captives free.

Answer 4

Up to that point, you had to go to a priest who would sacrifice an animal and say a prayer in order to "atone" for a persons sins. Jesus came to earth to give himself as the final sacrifice for the sins of mankind. In so doing, we no longer have to go to a priest for forgiveness of our sins but rather pray directly to Jesus and confess/repent of/forsake our sins and lead a good life.

Answer 5

Our sins closed Heaven to us, as Heaven is sinless and no sin can enter Heaven and God cannot look upon sin, as He is Holy. Sin's penalty is spiritual death, separation therefore from God and Heaven. BUT, God in His mercy for us provided a way! God sent His Son, Jesus to die on the cross and pay our penalty for sin for us, so we wouldn't have to. You either accept His free gift of atonement for your sins OR you will pay the penalty for your sins yourself. The choice is yours. If you pay, your penalty is spiritual death in the lake of eternal fire forever. Are you saved? God bless

Answer 6

Jesus life and death on the cross was only secondary, to his resurrection. If it had not been for the resurrection all the rest would have been for naught. But, because of his resurrection, all of his claims before death and after his death is vindicated.

As Jesus said; Destroy this temple (my body) and in three days "I" will raise it up.

Answer 7

I think that Paul said it best.
Because he has appointed a day, in which he shall judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS by that man whom he has ordained, whereof he has given assurance unto all men, in that he has raised him from the dead. -Acts 17:31.
What use would a wicked judge be?
And what use would there be in a world in which there were no hope of salvation?
God had a plan and he defeated the devil on that day, and redeemed us from the penalty of sin, as long as we follow him. And by follow, I of course mean, his teachings, his commandments.

Answer 8

Because that is what the Bible tells us. If it's in there, it happened exactly the way it was written.

Answer 9

If you want the truth, get your self the Holy Bible and read it all for yourself. Don't take anyone Else's word for it.

Answer 10

The way I take it is the price for sin is death, but God loves us so much that He sent his Son to die in our place so that we don't have to pay that price, and then He resurrected Him.
