Yet, God is the one who gave His Son Yeshua to be "murdered" by those who conspired to kill Him because He did not agree with their "religious" philosophies. However, the "behind the scenes intention" is that God had to sacrifice His Son in order to free you from the penalty of eternal death that was passed down to mankind through the disobedience of Adam and Eve.
In other words: God proclaimed that there would be consequences of spiritual and human death that would befall upon mankind through Adam and Eve's disobedience. However, God knew that Adam and Eve would disobey thus He provided a path to forgiveness, salvation and Eternal Life for mankind through the Atoning Blood of Yeshua. This because God is not willing that anyone should perish but come to repentance and believe in His Saving Grace through His Only Begotten Son.
Why a blood sacrifice of a perfect, unblemished offering, was expected is something that only God can answer but He provided it through His Son so that no other sacrifices/blood offerings of animals needed to be done.
Accepting the Atoning Blood of Yeshua as Lord and Saviour is a done deal between God and mankind for how to receive eternal life. |
No I have never hated anyone. Check my siggy.
if I had that much contempt for someone that I wished they were dead they would be dead.
