directly? Why can't he forgive humans our current sins directly? Why was Jesus' blood sacrifice necessary for god to be appeased?

Does this even make any sense at all to you? It may have made sense to barbaric people who thought stoning disobedient children to death was an appropriate punishment. To a rational human being, it makes no sense at all.

It does make sense however, if you realize it is nothing more than a barbaric primitive myth.

the whole thing of original sin is not a hebrew thing just the story. and it tells of the way humans evolved itno creatures with self awareness (the knowledge of good and evil). so as far as i'm concerned it's a good thing.

God forgiven us but after Eve and Adam ate the apple they were changed because they already have their own reasoning and also a mortal. Because of this reasoning we make sins and think. Jesus died on the cross to save us sinners because just like in the law if we committed a crime we must be punished. Just like the doctor heals the sick than those who were healthy, the Supreme Being cleanse,save and took care of those who sins because He loves us He will do everything to save us without making Himself doing a sin by not following the law He made and He was doing this because He forgives us. He is our creator so He knows what is the best with giving us freedom to choose also He said Adam and Eve that when a mortal found that tree again we will be immortals again.

God is forgiving, yet He additionally could be a splendidly in basic terms God. For an particularly good parable that explains the dating between Justice and Mercy, examine out this communicate given via a guy named Boyd ok. Packer. it truly is exciting. the tale starts some quarter of how into his communicate. truly summed up, all of us go with mercy, yet mercy can not rob justice--otherwise God might quit to be God, so we go with a mediator--who's Christ, who paid the debt for us. As for the autumn and it truly is effect on the international and animals, i've got faith the two would be restored, in basic terms as we can at some point, to a suited state for the duration of the grace of our Lord Christ. the international we are residing in fell whilst sin became presented into the international, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it would be restored as Isaiah prophesied in financial ruin sixty 5. 25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed at the same time, and the lion shall consume straw like the bullock: and airborne dirt and mud may be the serpent’s meat. They shall no longer harm nor harm in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.

God DOES directly forgive. You must keep in mind that the Bible is dealing with a totally different Species of Man than the one walking on earth today. Rituals, which often housed a larger Esoteric meaning, were instituted in Order to implant a meaning, message or event into a people...much like today with 4th of July.

This is what it took for the people to get it, as God comes speaking the language you comprehend. this is what they comprehended.

However, prior to them understanding The Truth, The Truth existed. Some proclaim Truth never existed until they happen upon it, and then they want their happenings Immortalized to the world....

So keep in mind, God does and Can and will communicate Directly to a person, Right where they are in their capacity to experience.

An Angel came to Daniel in the bible and he fell on his face.

Some people just cannot handle it like that.

Only christian people believe that!! Which I don't really understand.

I also have heard Christians disrespecting women because Eve is the one who talked Adam into eating the apple.

You can also review Christian history trying to decide whether women have souls or not, just because of this sin.

What makes sense is, you commit a sin, then you are the only one responsible for it, NOT the whole humanity.

What doesn't make sense, is sending "your" son to die so you can forgive!!

Yes, the whole thing makes sense to me. Adam and Eve commited the original sin, and God cursed us to feel pain and suffering because Adam and Eve disobeyed Him directly. Jesus was sent here to redeem mankind for Adam and Eve's sin, but, you have to accept Him in order to gain that redemption. Its really not that hard to figure out, if you put a little more thought into it.

Jesus died so we could enter the kingdom of heaven. While a blood sacrifice may seem barbaric to you, it is still acceptable in many parts of the world.

ok, I will try and explain it- God is Holy, we are not- since God is just, there has to be punishment and death for sin. However, God loved us so much that He sacrifice His SON- without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin. Think about it- there has to be justice- we deserve death- however because of His love, He sacrificed Himself for us to pay the price we could never pay- instead of "wondering" why God could not just forgive us- think about it this way- He loves us so much He suffered for us.

First of all Adam and Eve did not repent instead they blamed someone else for their actions.

Second of all you cannot forget that sin resulted in evil and as a consequence it would still exist even if they were in your sense forgiven.

So either way we would still need a better way.

I believe that most things were done for future generations, To show them what god can do and what god has done.

It is hard to blame past generation of what they thought was the right thing to do . Future generations may think we are barbaric when they see what we do in our life...
