This question made me lol. Everybody get out there and SIN - so we can justify Jesus' death!!!!!
Seriously - the way I see it - Jesus DIDN'T die for our sins. He died because he was a pacifist - and - well a martyr.
I don't believe in sin.
And Christians - like it or not - sometimes do the things that they refer to as sin.
Namaste!!

Christians do sin. All people sin. Jesus didn't "kill himself" he died on the cross so that we would be forgiven for our sins. God knew there was no way we could live a sin free life, so he chose to give a part of himself as proof to us that he really does love us and he is willing to forgive us our sins, and all we have to do is believe in him. So Jesus didn't die for nothing, he died for us.

We (Christians) absolutely do sin--continually. We are weak, vulnerable flesh that is tempted daily by our adversarial enemy... The Bible declares that "all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Christ died so that we could be redeemed from our sins... even if (although impossible) we didn't sin another time--what about the sin before and leading up to your salvation--how are those "previous" sins handled or forgiven? The truth is we inherited sinlike nature from our very ancestors in Eden... Jesus died for the Redemption of all mankind. So many try to analyze the act & gift of Jesus' atonement for our sins that we miss the fact--all we have to do is accept the gift--here it is, unwrap it and receive it. Be blessed.

at first Jesus is God John a million:a million and knew the objective wherein He got here God is all understanding he's Alpha and omega beginning up and end of all issues so his plan and objective has been seen by via him and He knew precisely how issues could bypass so Jesus got here into the international to die for our sins and that's how that's (2) with the aid of fact he died for our sins would not provide us the potential to sin freely and stay our lives any way we expect of we want Romans 6:a million

Jesus did not kill himself. He was crucified/murdered!
What it says is for when one is Christian to not sin anymore, unless there is an emergency, like a sick child on the Sabbath, take care of it.
What is wrong is to sin a lot and think that you will still be forgiven because another person says they forgive you. (Ex. Homosexuals, rapists, thieves, unmarried couples, ...)

Jesus died for the sin that we inherited from our forefathers, Adam and Eve. If Adam and Eve did not sin, then, they would have still be living among us, today. Since the wages of sin is death, Adam and Eve paid for their sins by dying. After the war of Armageddon, there would be survivors that would never taste death; Jesus sacrifice is covering for them. Jesus death does not cover willful sinning. Willful sinners must genuinely repent and change their ways.

The Bible says that we all have sinned, even Christians, in many little ways.
Everyone need forgiveness.
---------------------------
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives
~1 John 1:8-10 (NIV)
This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus
~Romans 3:22-24 (NIV)

Jesus didnt kill himself and everyone is capable of sin. All we have to do is ask for God's forgiveness whenever we do wrong.

Jesus died and was resurrected because we DO sin. We strive to be Christ-like, but we are only human. His sacrifice was so we didn't have to suffer eternally for our sins. He opened up the Gates of Heaven to us! I think that's a reason.

Biblical ignorance is such a sad thing to see.
Christians sin just like people like you.
Thing is, we don't' WANT to sin, but we do. But when we DO sin, and repent (not want to do it again) and are TRULY sorry, we can ask forgiveness and will be forgiven and it will be as it never happened as far as God is concerned.

everyone sins, Jesus died on the cross so our sins would be forgiven through prayer.
