When did God first realize he could redeem the world by killing his kid?

Answer 1

After that whole 'let there be light' incident, he pretty much went nuts.

Answer 2

In Judaism, the Messiah is not born of a "god" and a virgin human woman. He is born in the usual way by a married Jewish man and wife, and is wholly human. He does NOT serve as a pagan god/man virgin blood sacrifice, but lives a long life, marries, and has sons to whom he leaves an inheritance. He is not worshipped as he is not God, and only God is worshipped. He fulfills ALL of the actual, original (and still the only true) prophecies, of which there are approximately 16, not the hundreds of false prophecies that the Church has tried to back-engineer into our Torah ("old testament") through false mistranslations and deceptions.

Just about every single concept about the Messiah that the Church has, and has taught to its followers, comes from ancient paganism, not from Judaism. The Church threw out every single Jewish concept in its attempt to eliminate Judaism and wipe out the Jews, while at the same time adopting the pagan concepts that were prevalent at the time among the pagan peoples that the Church was trying to convert and bring into its fold.

This is where the concept of a God killing his son for redemption came from. It is an extremely common theme among old ancient pagan religions, where a god is killed to redeem mankind, travels to the "underworld" for precisely 3 days, and then returns above to renew life on the earth and bring the light once again, and then ascends to the "heavens".

No such thing has ever existed in Judaism. We find the idea of human sacrifice for sin to be an abomination. This was the entire point of the story of Abraham and his son Isaac when Abraham was called to sacrifice Isaac and it was stopped before it even got started.

Christianity twists this story to mean that human sacrifice WAS accepted in Judaism, and that it is the "precursor" example of Jesus's sacrifice - but Judaism teaches that the moral of this story was that human sacrifice was NEVER acceptable and is an abomination.

The pain experienced by Abraham, the confusion at being asked to do such a thing, the sorrow he felt, the fact that Isaac's mother Sarah died of shock and horror when she learned where they had gone and what they were going to do, and the fact that Isaac was 37 years old at the time, not a child, and actually felt the tip of the knife on his throat and was so horrified that his soul actually left him momentarily but was returned to him by God, and the entire episode brought to an end by God, the horror of all this, how very WRONG all of this was, is the REAL teaching of this story.

The Jews were surrounded by cultures who practiced human sacrifice for sin, and Isaac was up next for leadership of the Jewish people and needed to understand from the level of his soul, what an abomination this practice is. And he did understand it, and never allowed the Jews to fall into such practices while he ruled, nor his sons after him.

We also do not have, and never have had, the idea of God becoming a man, or a man becoming God, as this is idolatry.

So Christians who believe all of this need to understand and accept that they are believing in ancient paganism, and that their beliefs do not come from Judiasm. We don't have them. Never did. They don't come from us. We find these beliefs to be disgusting.

The fact that Christians think these beliefs come from us because that's what they've been told by the Church (including it's false meanings of our Torah, and its mistranslations of our text, many times on purpose), and then try to convert us to that kind of idolatry is just beyond sanity. And it is an insult to God as well, to take these idolatrous concepts and stick them onto the God of Israel.

Answer 3

from before He even created us. And by the way, Sacrificed is a much better word- Jesus sacrificed Himself for us, knowing that it would bring pain upon Himself, separation for a time with the Father, however, it did it because it was the will of God.= So think about it this way, if you were the only person on earth, long before you were created God loved you so much that He would sacrifice His Son so that He could have a personal relationship with you.

Answer 4

He knew what he had to do right after Adam and Eve sinned. When He confronted Adam and Eve, God said at Gen3:14-15 And Jehovah God proceeded to say to the serpent: “Because you have done this thing, you are the cursed one out of all the domestic animals and out of all the wild beasts of the field. Upon your belly you will go and dust is what you will eat all the days of your life. 15 And I shall put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise you in the head and you will bruise him in the heel.”
This is the first Prophesy in the Bible and tells us his plan to use the seed (Jesus Christ) against Satan and rid the earth of Adamic sin. (Galations 3:16 - Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. It says, not: “And to seeds,” as in the case of many such, but as in the case of one: “And to your seed,” who is Christ.)

Answer 5

I think he first got the idea when he told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac as a sign of obedience. It must have been in his head for a while after that, and he decided to try again, with a twist.

Answer 6

Abraham should have sacrificed Issac`s brother

Answer 7

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit , after the tradition of man , and not after Christ

Answer 8

Presumably, as God is depicted as omniscient and all-knowing, He has known it for all eternity.

Answer 9

Apparently his shrink advised it as he underwent anger management therapy.

Answer 10

It was an epiphany he had while on fire in the sinai
