WHY did jesus have to die for your sins?

Question

if god is so great, why couldn't he just forgive you all without the needless killing?

Answer 1

Crystal, I think that it's ALL in the way that SOME folks view things. Many Christians view people as being flawed and sinful by nature and so NEED to have SOME form of "sacrifice" to atone for those wicked weaknesses.

The REST of us see humans as being BASICALLY good and loving beings. Yes, we ARE only human and tend to get lost as we follow our paths BUT we always (for the most part) find ourselves back on the path that we EACH must follow in our lives. THEY view the glass as half empty and WE view it as half full. It's ALL just a matter of viewpoint.

If Deity had asked ME whether or not someone else should have to DIE for my misdeeds I would tell that being, "No, I made my OWN decisions, I accept the responsibility of those decisions. Do NOT make someone else suffer ANYTHING as a result of my bad choices.". Yet many Christians acdept, happily, the fact that their founder gave his very life for them. They refuse to understand that their BEHAVIOR is the hammer that further drives the nails into his feet and hands, deeper and deeper with each and every WRONG choice that they make in life. They prefer to lok at is as "The price has been already paid so I can do whatever I want to do and afterwards, I can ask for forgiveness and it will be granted. This to ME, is a totally selfish and greedy way to look at things and I prefer to NOT live my life that way.

I live my OWN life, accepting the repercussions of my OWN deeds and realizing that, I make every attempt to do the RIGHT thing. Perhaps if THEY looked at it in that light and lived their lives as though every GOOD choice that they made would reverse the hammer and pull OUT the nails a bit at a time for each GOOD dead, maybe things would change for the better on our World. I sincerely doubt that they would accept this viewpoint, though. They are having too much "fun" living the way that they WANT to, knowing that they have some "get out of Hell Free" card. A very sad way to live one's life from MY perspective.

if jesus died for our sins, then who would like to die for our flown sins until the human-kind roaming is ended ?
It's something unacceptable !
