Question:
Should we care for Jesus' sacrifice?

If Jesus died on the cross and spent three days in hell to pay for the sins of the world, then why would we have to go to hell ourselves and pay for them again? God is then, in essence, being paid for our sins twice. With that said, was Jesus' sacrifice not worthy enough? If that is the case, why should we care that he died for our sins if his sacrifice means nothing at all?

1) Original sin (that alleged Jesus allegedly died for) is not only imaginary, it clearly shows that it was God's fault, for somebody who can't tell right from wrong, can't make the right thing by choice.



2) God raped a virgin to make Jesus, only to sacrifice him to himself.

The rule that a sacrifice has to be made, again comes from God, so it's clearly his fault, both the "original sin" and the blood sacrifice.



3) Jesus spent 1 1/2 days "dead", then got an extra life and a level up... granting him omnipotence too.. pretty lame pseudo sacrifice if you ask me.



4) god is imaginary.



5) BATMAN!

Jesus died for all our sins. But you have to accept that Fact and confess your sins to him. Asking Him to come into your life and change you. Anyone that say's anything else? Is Trying to say He should be Crucified again. No Belief, no forgiveness.

There is more joy in Jesus in one day.

Than there is in the World 365/24/7

I know, I tried them both.

Numbers 6:24-26

Although Jesus came to save all mankind, we have to choose to become one of “His people” and be saved. Jesus said whosoever believes will have eternal life (John 3:16) and everyone who asks receives (Matt. 7:7-8). This means we all have the choice to be saved, but we have to ask in faith in order to receive it.



Romans 8:29-30 tells us that God, who knows the end from the beginning, knew everyone who would ask for salvation before even one of us came to be. Those He foreknew He predestined (appointed) to have a place in His Kingdom. At the appropriate time in our life He calls us, knowing we will respond.  When we do He justifies us by allowing the death of His son to pay the penalty for our sins. At that time He gives us to His Son. The Son becomes our Shepherd, as we have become His sheep, and He will never lose any of us (John 6:37-40). When we are raptured or resurrected He will glorify us.



So Jesus came to die for all mankind, but only those who accept His death as payment for their sins will be called His people. The choice is ours. Since we can pay for our own sins the choice should be a no-brainer. See, spending eternity in Hell is not the penalty for our sins, it’s the consequence of being unable to pay the penalty. The penalty for our sins is the life of a sinless person, the righteous for the unrighteous (1 Peter 3:18). None of us is sinless so none of us is qualified to pay the penalty. Not for ourselves or anyone else.



Jesus agreed to pay the penalty for us, as long as we agreed to let Him. Because He was sinless, He was qualified to do so. As soon as He gave His life for us we were free. The penalty had been paid, and we were able to avoid the consequences of being unable to pay.



Therefore people don’t go to Hell to pay the penalty for their sins. They go to Hell because they can’t pay the penalty and refused to let Jesus pay it for them.  Even after spending eternity in Hell, they’ll still owe the same penalty as they did on their first day there. That's why hell is eternal torment.

If gods was so bothered about people committing sin in the first place. Then why create it? Just for his own sick pleasure?



No thanks jesus. Unlike those who subscribe to Religion who just use God as a scapegoat for everything. I,ll be responsible for my own actions. Thanks anyways.

it is not merely approximately His actual discomfort. Christ replaced into sinless... Being sinless he in no way had to die, by using fact the wages of sin is death... "For the wages of sin is death; however the present of God is eternal existence by Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23. Christ replaced into the single to come to a decision whilst he could lay down His existence... "for this reason doth my Father love me, by using fact I lay down my existence, that i could take it lower back. No guy taketh it from me, yet I lay it down of myself. I easily have potential to place it down, and that i've got potential to take it lower back. This commandment have I won of my Father." John 10:17-18 What makes His sacrifice so super is the explanation why He died. He died so as that guy may be stored. taking up our sins, all of them, that's an magnificent religious woe. Now so a good distance as actual discomfort, it wasn't merely putting on the bypass. He replaced into tortured, crushed, and His flesh replaced into ripped off of His physique. yet, there replaced into much extra discomfort on a similar time as He replaced into on the bypass than we are in a position to think of. the reason Christ died replaced into to die in my place, yet there is one extra ingredient- hell. on a similar time as he replaced into putting on the bypass, Christ took on my hell, to boot as the different. If we sin against an eternal God, we deserve eternal punishment. So our hell had to be taken from us to boot which he willingly took. it rather is awe-inspiring and staggering. Now, regarding the hell that many talk of that Christ went to after death, you may seem on the Greek. i will not circulate into factor because it rather isn't inevitably answering your question. All i will say is that it's not the Hell we expect of of as we talk. i'm not right here to alter your innovations, yet just to describe why I ask your self at His death.

No, but you should prove it before claiming it is the truth.
