He was a mentally unstable schizophrenic who thought he was the "chosen one".

When he finally realized he was dying and all the pain of crucifixion and insanginuation started to him, it must have deeply shocked him. He was the Chosen One. He wasn't supposed to die! He was God! So what does he do? He cries out in his delusions to Yahweh, his "father", asking him why he abandoned him.

Really sad, if you think about it, but also very human.

Jesus took the sins of mankind onto Himself at the cross. All of your sins were on Him there.

When the perfect Lamb of God became sin, the Holy Spirit left Him, and the Father turned His back. (The earth also broke apart, and the sun went dark, among other things sufficient to prove to the execution leading centurion that they indeed had crucified the Son of God.)

God cannot live with sin. God cannot tolerate sin. When Jesus became sin, He was forsaken by the Spirit and Father.

That's what He did for you.

The Jews pressured Pilate into doing what they wanted to do, kill Jesus, by threatening to tell friends of Caesar that Pilate was going soft on people calling themselves kings under Roman rule (sedition).

Pilate saw right through them, but of course, that threat was very real, and Pilate's own life was at stake.

Pilate gave it one last shot by promising to free either Jesus or Barabbas, a zealot, likely a thief and a murderer, and the mob chose to save Barabbas.

Many people forced Jesus to die for His beliefs because they were unwilling to die for theirs.

It was probably said in despair about his ministry being destroyed so quickly, and about him fulfilling none of the messianic requirements Yahweh proscribed

But within the 300 years after his death it was changed to him merely saying it for poetic reasons, since Jesus always existed, sharing the same ousia with Yahweh in the Godhead trinity. Now he was willingly sacrificing himself as the final atonement for the sins of Adam, confidently knowing he'd rise again, and those who condemned him would face disunion with the Godhead for actually believing Yahweh when he said the Messiah would be a conquering hero over Israel's political enemies.

Sure.

1. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
2. The wages of sin is death.
3. The life is in the blood.
4. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission for sins.

Jesus, being God, was able and willing to redeem a lost and fallen mankind; to pay our debt to God. Our sin debt. Jesus is our Kinsman Redeemer.

He literally took all of our sins on Him at the cross. All of them. Then He suffered the wrath of God on all of those sins, and then He died, paying the ultimate price for all of those sins.

God's justice, holiness and righteousness satisfied by Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf, offers to us the free gift of His salvation, His Holy Spirit, to all who believe. He offers this to us out of His grace and mercy.

It's the only way to be saved.

And it didn't have to exist.

Ultimately, Mohammad was just a guy whereas Jesus is literally God.

Muslims will always have a lower view of humanity than Christians because their abstract theology doesn't have a human face and this is what allows them to embrace cruelty towards human beings.

In Christianity, the human body is vessel for God and needs to be respected as such.

In Islam, the human body is just a hunk of meat and can be butchered as such.

Do you really think the Romans gave a shit about some Jew legend about a "Messiah?"

Pilate killed Jesus because Caiaphas threatened revolt if he didn't and it was more politically expedient to execute a single innocent man than having to deal with hordes of hysterical Heebs.

If sin is a necessary consequence of man, then man necessarily leads to sin. An omniscient being knows this beforehand.

Either sin comes into the world, or no humans exist.

Operating under the assumption that Jesus spilling his own blood would have been sinful, and would defeat the purpose, then humans killing Jesus would be necessary to save mankind from sin. An omniscient being knows this beforehand.

Either Judas sells Jesus out, or mankind suffers for eternity.

The only way to have humans and not have them eternally suffer for sin, Jesus must die at the hands of men. This could not have happened without Judas. An omniscient being knows this before creation.

I'm left confused as to why God is not ascribed partial responsibility for sin existing.

no, because what i wrote is perfectly sound.
dying is the losing condition of the game, hence why humanity lost for so long. in order for mankind to win, god had to become a player himself and face the same losing condition as the rest of humanity.

They revolted for a plethora of reasons, but you really don't think a siqarim couldn't have stuck jesus a few times while giving a speech? Even Tacitus, the first guy to mention jesus outside the gospels, said he suffered under Pontius Pilate. No mention of Caiaphas. This is very un-1st century judea-like.
>>
>>688462

Funny, they did in Acts.

And it wasn't an actual Sanhedrin, what with being convened at night, on a holiday, in a private home, without the Av Beit Din present, etc.

The impression the gospels give is very much "Kangaroo court of the high priest and his friends" rather than a real sitting of the Sanhedrin, which is probably why they're reluctant to actually carry out the execution.
>>
>>688462
Oh, no, I understood what you said. I'm just saying that you, and the biblical interpretation, is wrong. They don't need political authority to stone some heretic. The Romans crucify rebels like jesus. Jesus was a rebel in the romans' eyes. He died a rebel's death. That's it.

Why are you getting so mad, anon? That's awfully not christ-like.

From my understanding, this indicates that Jesus did not know that he was god. Like, he sent himself to Earth in the form of Jesus, but in doing so Jesus' human nature was unaware of this. It's also a bit of ironic humor, like the Peter rock pun in the latin version.
>>
>>688364
Arius taught that only God the Father was eternal and too pure and infinite to appear on the earth. Therefore, God produced Christ the Son out of nothing as the first and greatest creation. The Son is then the one who created the universe. Because the Son relationship of the Son to the Father is not one of nature, it is, therefore, adoptive. God adopted Christ as the Son. Though Christ was a creation and because of His great position and authority, He was to be worshipped and even looked upon as God. Some Arians even held that the Holy Spirit was the first and greatest creation of the Son.

By you saying Jesus did not exist prior to His birth, you are saying Jesus is not eternal, as God is eternal. You are therefore saying Jesus is not fully God.

If that's how you're looking at it, it would be more accurate to say that damnation is the losing condition of the game because everyone dies but only those who are victorious through Christ will escape damnation.

Jesus' death was not a loss but a victory because it allows those who believe in Him to escape damnation.

Not necessary; Adam was created without sin. Lucifer was created without sin.

I would say inevitable. And as God sees the end from the beginning, not only inevitable, but predictable.

Humans existed without sin, just as angels today exist without sin. Twice as many as have fallen, actually.

Jesus did spill His own blood, because He was not at the mercy of His executioners. He could have called the whole thing off at any time.

Humans cannot and did not kill Jesus; He dismissed His Spirit as a King dismisses his prime minister.

Jesus pushed Judas into selling Him out, so that the plot to kill Jesus would happen when Jesus said it would happen, on the Passover.

Judas was not irreplaceable in this plan; and it is written that evil shall come; but woe to him by whose hand evil comes. Judas is damned.

God knew sin would exist and before He created the world, He resolved to die to redeem it.

It's called the everlasting covenant. It went something like this.

Jesus: If you will save them, I will die for them.

Father: If you will die for them, I will save them.

That covenant was sealed in Jesus' blood.

In my view I believe he said this because of his becoming human in a human body with human feelings and traits while still God he felt the pain of humans and understands why we cry out to him in our times of need but in the end he knows what's best for us so it is necessary that we must suffer for eternal life

So you consider Christianity to be some sort of philosophy.

It is not a philosophy. Most Christians could not tell you what Jesus said, and taught.

It is a transcendent and fundamental transformation away from a spiritually dead human being into an eternally living new creation in Christ Jesus.

But for the truth, that would be correct.

2 Corinthians
Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech— unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away.

But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.

So the question is, can YHWH place a veil over the hearts of the Jews?

Did He?

If you think I'm using the gospel as an end-all be-all of what is historically accurate then you're quite mistaken. It can be accurate, and in this post you'll see where I agree with it and where I don't.

Anyways, what that poster mentioned was the martyrdom of Stephen in the book of Acts.

Also, your link deals with executions with 100% due process; it is implied that Romans exerterted some control over executions, because Josephus later states that when the Romans fucked off from Jerusalem temporarily, the high priest organized them and resumed them.

The martyrdom of saint Stephen, however, implies the Sanhedrin was, at times capable of literally storming someone outside a city and having them executed, pic related.

Simple things like stoning a heretic on the spot with Sanhedrin approval is different than, say, the Sanhedrin in Roman Judea calling for the deaths of 100s of Roman collaborators and people who worked on the sabbath etc that the Romans couldn't allow.

>Also, the fact that a new covenant was made strikes me as a Plan B.

Is it not likely that the New Covenant demonstrated the futility of the Old? Is it not completely different, and dependent upon Jesus as its author and finisher, unlike the Old?

Was anyone saved by the Law? By their own righteousness?

I know it feels like Plan B. Jesus told Paul this was always Plan A.

Ephesians 3
To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him.

It was always going to be first to the Jews, and then to the Gentiles.

>That is precisely what "he" is doing by claiming that the Sanhedrin in which Jesus was condemned was illegitimate because it didn't some follow some Talmudic minutiae even though the Caiaphas himself was present.

These are hardly "Talmudic Minutae". Ciaphas, as high priest, didn't head the court, the Av Beit Din did, who was Gamaliel at the time if I've got my dates right. Put simply, the man had no business conducting trials at all, and certainly not when you break the basic laws in so doing.

Eve was wrong. Cain was not the messiah.

Many people think this whole creation is so that we can go back to the Garden of Eden, and live like that, but with Jesus ruling the world. And for the most part, there's a lot of validity to that thought.

I believe it will be better than that, and more than that; I believe that we new creations are greater than Adam was. That our choice to collaborate with God to become something new gives us the power to be, well, something quite remarkable. Something like the children of God.

Or, more likely, you have a Sadduceean dominated priesthood which is largely opposed to the Pharisees who have more influence in the Sanhedrin (consider again, acts 5 and Gamaliel's influence) and Jesus is a pawn in their games against each other; with the Sadducees using their position of Roman collaborators to flout the Pharisee control over "legitimate" instruments of execution.

I'm aware it does, but what it doesn't say is that the Sanhedrin literally headed this execution. It wasn't extra-judicial, it as extremely passionate.

Jesus didn't meet with the proper authorities, if the gospel narrative is true, Jewish law was definitely broken and he didn't receive the proper process to be found guilty and executed, which may or may not have been totally within the limits of the Sanhedrin to perform immediately.

Would it have though? If the messiah came earlier, judgment day wouldn't necessarily also have to come earlier. There would arguably be more time to bring people closer to God, and thus there would be more people closer to God.

If mankind wasn't able to spend millenia bathing in sin prior to the Messiah's first coming, there would be a lot less sin.

He didn't have authority over anyone, except to throw them out of the Temple. The Av Beit Din had to preside over the Sanhedrin, and he's conspicuoulsy absent during Jesus's "trial"

>Also Stephen's martyrdom was committed in a moment of passion without legal authority.

John 8:59 Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

Luke 4
So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath, and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.

And indeed, scant 40 years later, legions did march, and destroy the temple, and destroy Israel, and kill millions of people.

The Jews' fears were justified; they just could have been overcome by God acting on their behalf. God v Rome is not a contest. It's annihilation.

AND WAS THE ONLY PERSON WHO WAS ALLOWED INTO THE HOLY OF HOLIES. TO CLAIM THAT HE HAD NEITHER AUTHORITY NOR RESPECT IS A FLAT OUT LIE BUT WHAT ELSE SHOULD I EXPECT FROM THE LIKES OF YOU?

>Try re-reading Acts 5 again

LETS LOOK AT IT TOGETHER SHALL WE:

>When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 “Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”

>57 At this they covered their ears and, yelling at the top of their voices, they all rushed at him, 58 dragged him out of the city and began to stone him.

- Acts 5:54-57

DOES THAT SOUND LIKE A JUDICIAL TRIAL TO YOU???


>>688839
>they say "no"

AND WHY PRAY TELL DO THEY SAY NO?

LETS LOOK:

>Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:

>It is not lawful for us to put any man to death

>It is not lawful for us to put any man to death

>It is not lawful for us to put any man to death

>INB4 THE GOSPELS ARE LYING
>>
>>688867
I don't get the impression that He sneaked away in any of those instances, but merely walked right through people.

The people loved Jesus. He was healing them by the thousands, miraculously, and He was kind, and gentle, and loving, and not ego driven at all.
>>
>>688876
The bible says there will be.

Revelation 20
Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.

Humans are broken. Fundamentally. There's something seriously wrong with us.
>>
>>688874
The Sanhedrin can't halachically put anyone to death; The av beit din can. Handing him over to the Romans is the only way they could in any law execute him legitimately (from the gospel narrative) because they couldn't pop him for breaking religious rules. However, it didn't stop them from breaking Jewish law before in attempting to do so.

It could be that this was the level they stooped to, to have him executed. But i don't think it's what transpired, word for word, from the gospels.
>>
>>688902
What the Bible now says about future events has no bearing on that hypothetical, though. Had God sent his son right after the fall of man, the bible wouldn't even have been written, or at the very least not in the way that it is now.

Also, which thousand years is this referring to? From what point in time?

And humans having fundamental flaws is a result of how we were created.

>legitimately

Go ahead and tell me how anyone could "legitimately" put Jesus to death. You don't even have to take into consideration for the moment that He is God.

Pirkei Avos, Chapter 6, Mishnah 6. You're welcome.

>LETS LOOK AT IT TOGETHER SHALL WE:

I was actually looking at 24-38, where they're debating whether or not they should be executing the disciples. Funnily enough, the notion of "Hey, we can't do this" doesn't come up once.

By the way, you really shouldn't be getting so mad. It'll give you an aneurysm.

>>688923
The Kingdom Age is a thousand years; it starts after the battle of Armegeddon is over, and is defined as the earth being made new, the devil and demons being confined, and Jesus ruling from Jerusalem.

Christians are to rule and reign with Jesus during this time.

It's about 8 years away from now.
>>
>>688888
Nice get, fag.

Anyways, lets examine what you said.

>the Jews can't out anyone to death!
>>why?
>because the gospel says so

The new testament shows the Sanhedrin can execute people (any sanhedrin execution without the av beit din is extra judicial) and so we come to another conundrum in this narrative.

John contradicts Acts; John and Acts both contradict what we know about 1st century Judea.

Here are a list of sources that show they COULD execute their own.

>>
>>688932
Wait, so the timeline goes:

>Rapture
>Battle of Armageddon
>Thousand years of Jesus ruling
>Satan gets released and deceives everyone again

Because I thought that Armageddon was supposed to be the end to the whole sin, Satan, deception thing.
>>
>>688938
There is no contradiction.

The could, and did, murder Stephen.

They could have tried to kill Jesus, but like all their prior attempts, they would have failed.

They did tell Pilate they could not condemn Jesus to death under their laws. IF YOU WANT TO SAY THIS IS A LIE, THAT'S FINE BY ME.

Because, you know, it is.
>>
>>688947
No, the battle at the end of my last Rev 20 cite ends the conflict. From there we go to the throne judgments, and then wrap up into eternity.

For fun, you can find and place the two Gog/Magog wars into your timeline.

Armageddon immediately precedes the Second Coming.

>Pirkei Avos, Chapter 6, Mishnah 6

All this says is that Torah is greater than the priesthood which isn't even what we're discussing but of course subtly changing the subject by citing some Rabbi is an old trick they teach you at Yeshiva I'm sure.

>I was actually looking at 24-38, where they're debating whether or not they should be executing the disciples. Funnily enough, the notion of "Hey, we can't do this" doesn't come up once.

Again, this isn't what we're debating. The issue is whether the stoning of Stephen was a judicially sanctioned execution and the whole "covering their ears and, yelling at the top of their voices, they all rushed at him, dragged him out of the city" makes it clear that it wasn't but rather a moment of autistic rage triggered by Stephen's vision of God.

I've had enough pilpul for one afternoon so I'll leave you with these verse from a prophet you really ought to study more:

14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?

16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?
- Isaiah 29:14

May God have mercy on your soul.
>>
>>688958
From John:

>we have no right to execute anyone

From you, previously ITT

From Acts

>Jewish legal authorities with ornwithout the av beit din can execute people

>they can't execute people because the Romans conquered them lel

You now, after examining evidence that they could:

>well they just would have failed.

Forget whether or not Jesus could have actually been found guilty, all we were arguing about was whether or not Jews could actually execute him using their own legal system, which they actually could as it turns out.

I'll accept your capitulation if you only promise to never shit up this board again.

>>688967
I'm still confused.

Here:
>>688902
>Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth

And then here:
>>688932
>The Kingdom Age is a thousand years; it starts after the battle of Armegeddon is over, and is defined as the earth being made new, the devil and demons being confined, and Jesus ruling from Jerusalem.
>>
>>688976
You fucking idiot, the av beit din could absolutely sanction his death and they did have the authority to do so.
>>
So is Pilate supposed to be in hell or what? Was he forgiven?
>>
>>688976

No, it's pretty representative of the attitudes of the time. The Priests were not particularly revered, being viewed as the pawns of outsiders and temple functionaries at best.

>Again, this isn't what we're debating.

Wrong, we're debating whether or not the Sanhedrin had the authority to execute people. Which they very clearly did, because even Acts itself refers to it, nevermind more neutral sources like Josephus.

Is this what they teach you in seminary? How to throw up a wall of bullshit to distract from the fact that you can't defend your point?

The account of the Bible is skewed to remove blame from the Romans, so that they'd be more eager to adopt Christianity in its early stages. It's pretty hard to adopt a religion that pretty much tells you that your people killed your new would-be god.

It also does a lot of favors to Pilate, who's painted as a pretty okay guy in the Bible, while most (I think all) sources we have that mention him describe him as a brutal maniac.
>>
>>685943

He means that hes's not a god, but don't worry, one of the people that follow a doctrine that was changed with ill intent an undetermined time ago will come and tell you otherwise.

He knows this because of all the miracles he does in front of us all the time in the name of jesus.

In fact the guy was never even called jesus, so yeah.

oh, if you want to prove me wrong, go ahead and do miracles, yeah, in his name and such

Literally heresy. The two natures of the Christ are in union means that the two natures are inseparable and united in action within the one person of Jesus of Nazareth, WITHOUT confusion and conflation of the two natures; hence Hypostatic Union. Why do "Christians" not even understand their own beliefs? Right, because it's incomprehensible and indefensible to begin with.

I was saved and baptized in the holy spirit in the name of Jesus Christ

Pretty intense dawg

I have Beheld the Glourie of the Amazing Dildoni, and Saw Him beat your Jebus with His Glourie.

It was pretty intense, and proved that Christianity is the religion of little he-bitches.
