did God really made a sacrifice when he sent his son Jesus?

Question

alrite here's d deal, im bored n alone for d summer n have been thinkin way too much. ill need to make clear a few things, i myself am a believer n is not here to disprove or offend anyone or religion whatsoever...
it has been in my head these past few days, we all know that God so loved the world that he gave his one n only son to die for us, a sacrifice they call it. But then we are also given the fact that god is omniscient, meaning he knows everything. so He knows that Jesus is going to die and live again.
if that is true then is it really a sacrifice?is it a sacrifice to send someone with the knowledge that he is going to return?
comment or thoughts on this matter would be really appreciated:)

Answer 1

Jesus IS God and if you can try to imagine being God and coming down here to smelly old dirty and painful earth after experiencing constant perfection and worship for countless years prior to this. For Him to come here unlauded and literally born in a barn. Only worshipped by a few ignorant shepherds and your parents.

Then He took on the sins of the world-this is why He had to come as a man-so that He could bear sin on His human body. Next He died the death of a criminal in agony though He was completely innocent. He took our place and all our guilt, past present and future upon Himself and went into hell itself fought Satan and won.

Now that IS the ultimate sacrifice.

Answer 2

If you want to believe that, fine. That's your right and
privilege. I'm not going to tell you that you're wrong,
just because I don't believe in God.
As for the basic question of whether or not it would
be a sacrifice to part with someone if you knew he
would be returning? Look at this way: a family allows
their one and only son to be sent off to war. All the
while they are confident that he will be coming home
from Iraq, because they've got connections in the
House of Congress and the Pentagon--and for that
reason, they've been assured by the Secretary of
State that Jimmy will be stationed in a place where
he can't possibly be harmed.
(He'll be in that bullet-proof and bomb-proof fortress
that's just been built, in the center of Baghdad--where
he will be in charge of communications.)
On Thursday of this last year, Jimmy arrived home, in
Garry, Indiana, and the entire Goodwell family had a
very nice Thanksgiving dinner.
In short, if you're confident enough of anything, you
have no reason to worry that anything may be too
much of a sacrifice.

Answer 3

Rev. 21:4 -
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."

Yes, sins can ONLY be forgiven by blood, by sacrifice. You're not worthy, but He hung for you anyway. Did He have to hang on the cross for you? Uh no! He knows the beginning from the end. He did it for you. He suffered so you would live on. Without it, your soul would burn.
You tell me, was it a sacrifice? Why should the Lord care about you? For that matter, why should anyone care about you? I don't know you and I for one don't care a whit about you, but God does. Why, I don't know, but He does and that's all that counts. Yes, God sacrificed Himself for you. Thank Him for once.

Answer 4

I think the sacrifice was in knowing how horribly Christ would be treated by humans and sending Him anyway. He sent this man [His Son] here to save us and humans despised Jesus, mistreated Him, insulted Him, beat Him and finally nailed Him to a cross. Jesus died in terrible pain and agony, because He was human and felt the same pain we would feel. Jesus also knew what agony He was going to suffer before it even happened, so it was psychological torture, too. Despite the fact that Christ would come back to God, it still was His son and I think that was the sacrifice. If you had a son and you sent him somewhere and you knew he would come back after being treated as Christ was treated, would you consider it a sacrifice to send Him anyway?

Answer 5

You must look back into the Garden of Eden, there you will see GOD calling Adam, and Eve, why because he love and trusted them so much he did not look into their futures. Same thing with Jesus, GOD does not alway's look into our futures, that's where faith come's in, as well as belief, and not only this point, there would be no such thing as a choice, to choose or a will. Do you think GOD is so little he will always looking, He want's us to believe, he want's us to choose life, he want's us to have the key's to heaven, he want's to shine as the stars in the sky, choose life.

Answer 6

Yes he sacrificed because Jesus was a starter on the Heaven All-Star Team. The lost in the finals to Seventh Heaven in Christ's absence and you know what a nut God is about seeing his son in the play-offs!

Answer 7

Jesus made the a clean difference beet wen him and his Father. One occasion of a Bible verse it is often misused is John a million:a million. In King James version. that verse reads: " in the beginning up became into the be conscious,and the be conscious became into with God [Greek,ton the.on'],and the be conscious became into God [the,os]." This verse contains 2 variety of the Greek noun the.os [god].the 1st is preceded with the aid of ton [the],a sort of the Greek particular article,and for this reason the be conscious the on' refers to Almighty God. in the 2nd occasion,although,the os' has no particular article.became into the object mistakenly ignored? The Gospel John became into written in koine,or situation-loose Greek,which has particular rules on the subject of using the particular article.Bible student A.T.Robertson recognizes that if the two concern and predicate have articles, '' the two are particular,dealt with as same,one and a similar,and interchangeable." Robertson considers as an occasion Matthew 13:38,which reads; . the sector [Greek,ho a gros'] is the be conscious [Greek,ho ko'smos]."The grammar facilitates us to comprehend that the be conscious is likewise the sector. What,nevertheless,if the priority has a diverse article however the predicate does not,as in John a million:a million? pointing out that verse as an occasion, student James Allen Hewett emphasizes:In this variety of shape the priority and predicate are equivalent,same,or something of the variety.'' for instance,Hewett makes use of a million John a million:5,which says: ''God is mild.''In Greek,God'' is ho the'os' and for this reason has a diverse article.yet phos for ''mild'' isn't preceded with the aid of any article.Hewitt element out: '' you are able to continuously ...say of God he's characterised with the aid of mild; one can't continuously say of sunshine it is God .'' comparable examples are stumbled on at John 4:24, '' God is Spirit,'' and at a million John 4:sixteen, ''God is love.'' In the two a sort of verses,the matters have particular articles however the predicates at the instant are not interchangeable.those verse can't advise that '' Spirit is God'' or love is God.''

Answer 8

first, if the story is correct jesus felt so abandoned by god that he cried out my god, my god why have you forsaken me. so, while god my have known, jesus was brought to the point of feeling at least forsaken. so the question would be did jesus know.

second, what if it wasn't like that at all? what if jesus was trying to show us that this world is an illusion. you only think you are that body, but you are not. so to prove it, he allowed others to treat him the way they treated him and he did not attack back because if he would have attacked back he would have proved to them the the illusion was real. since it wasn't, he didn't have a need to attack back. there wasn't anything to defend.

Answer 9

I hate to attach sacrifice to Jesus... when it was the unbelievers of their respective religions are at fault.

What had happened, happened. And people of guilt are covering their own tracks using the content of their own respective Books(Bibles).

Answer 10

Not even a little bit.

Plus, who decided that Jesus needed to die anyway? If Jesus is god, and God is god... then wasn't Jesus being sacrificed to himself?

If not, then who was he being sacrificed to? Satan? Since when did god give Satan that position of authority?

The whole thing makes no sense at all.
