Answer, To gain followers / worshippers, for he is a jealous God, simple and to the point

second, if he loved his creation so much, why kill them like ants in a flood, minus Noah's family, but even with that, wouldn't Noah's son's known about God and the sins (minus the orginal sin)
and lastly, if christ died for the sins of Adam and Eve, why is there pain for women giving birth, suffering, death of old age, disease from the orginal sin, if God is loving and forgiving?

What happened to our sins? I'm glad you asked!

Isaiah 1: 18--"Come, now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool".

Here's one for you: If you don't believe God or His word, why ask the questions?

God humbled himself and emptied himself of his glory and came to earth as a human being . After Eve and Adam sinned , they were separated from God spiritually . And man had to live with the repercussions of sin .That is why we die have sickness ,diseases ,getting old , death , severe weather , etc . For woman (being the first to sin ) that is why they have their monthly , tougher pregnancy , and cannot be pastors . Jesus was sinless and was the only one ( pure , perfect, and sinless ) that could make the payment ( his blood )for sins on the cross. He was the lamb of God that made the sacrifice ( Payment ) for the believers sins .He did not die for everyone that would be impossible. If he did then judgment day would be a joke . If one becomes a born again believer ( John 3:3 ) their sins are wiped clean off the records .You can't still live the life you lived before you became a believer.

God didn't lose anything when He sent His Son to die. In fact since God and Jesus are One, God died on the cross too. When Jesus died for our sins, he died for all of the sins for everyone who came after Him, so everyone has a chance to go to Heaven. If you are baptized as according to the Bible then you will go to Heaven, BUT only if you follow God's will the rest of your life. So when we're born, we're born without sin, but since we're human we eventually have sin and that's why we have to be baptized. Hope helped. If you need anymore help with this, maybe you should go to the closest Church of Christ (without instruments) and ask one of the members.

You basically state your position there at the end. You don't really want to know the answer to this question. In any case, Jesus was still a human being, albeit a divine one according to most Christians. His soul may have gone back to God, but he still had to suffer and die. In any case, it was a symbolic act anyway, so it really does not matter that much. God sent Jesus down to teach us, and to set an example for us through his sacrifice. It doesn't matter how much of a sacrifice it was about, because it was the setting an example that was the important symbol of that event. In any case, I don't personally believe that original sin is important, so I can't really answer that part of your question. To me, original sin does not matter, and never did. Only how we choose to live our lives matters.

God wasn't gambling with sending Jesus, this is not a matter of "what did He have to lose", this God knowing what would atone for our sins and doing it Himself. Original sin is "going against God" It is covered, as well as every sin if we repent and ask forgiveness through God's Sacrifice.

To answer your first question I believe you must answer this question: what did God have to gain by sending Jesus to die? At the very least, nothing; at the very most, the love and worship of all his created children.
To answer your second question, our original sin was paid for when Christ died on the cross. (Check out Romans Chapter 1) He took the punishment we deserve upon himself for our sin and Adam's sin.

Have you ever known a wealthy king with servants and mansions that took 39 lashes for you, let soldiers put a crown of thorns on His head for you and let soldiers nail Him to a cross which was a shameful death all for you?

If you believe in Jesus the original sins and all sin is washed away. You can come boldly to Jesus who is your advocate and who sacrificed Himself for you so you could get everlasting life back that Adam and Eve lost for you.

Jesus was a prophet. God said be and he was. It didn't make him his son. God never had a son.
