How does being forgiven increase ones love for God? Note: According to Jesus, God`s forgiveness is motivated by love.

When we forgive we are no longer in debt to unforgiveness and are free to give love along with forgiveness.  We can not forgive on our emotions and own will but the spirit of God surpasses our emotions and will.  Jesus came for the unjust, unwilling, and ungrateful because they needed to receive his forgiveness for free.Jesus came to sinners to meet them at their sin and offer them forgiveness of their sin without them being ready to own their forgiveness.Jesus came for the sinners who were not ready to give up their sin and who couldn't get rid of their sin on their own, so they needed Jesus to do it for them.With the help of Jesus we can forgive and get rid of our sin. Jesus came to show us how to do this by love.We can only forgive by sharing the love that Jesus had for the unforgivable sins and sinners.

"Which of these purposes do you believe Jesus accomplished?"

Jesus fulfilled all the accomplishment.

God demonstrated His love for us by sending His only son Jesus Christ into the world to die for us sinners and to save the world from sin that all who believe in Him should not perish.

Jesus proclaim the Good News that He will save us, whoever call upon His name shall be saved, if you repent, confess and ask for forgiveness you can overcome any hurdles  in your way. He never promise us a life without pain or troubles, He never promise it would be easy, but He promised as a born-again believer there is a life of joy and peace in the end. He said weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning.

Jesus was sacrificed for us. He gave His life as a ransom for many. (Matthew 20:28)  What have we sacrificed or can we sacrifice for Him? It is hard for us to give up things that we cherish but a life in Christ is worth more than worldly things. Jesus blood was shed for us, His body broken for us. Matthew Chp. 26:26-28 says, while they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, "take and eat; this is my body. Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. (NIV) This is done during the Lord's Supper where we use bread or wafer as a symbol of His body and wine as a symbol of His blood that was shed for us.

Jesus is the source of abundant life because He came to earth to heal the sick, the broken-hearted and to preach the gospel to all and to give new life to those who accept Him as their own personal Savior. He went about doing good even though He was rejected in His hometown.

Jesus preached the Gospel of repentance so we would understand the Kingdom of God. There is a kingdom in each of us if we trust God, witness to others about Him, encourage others to seek Him, to love Him and to serve Him. The free gift of forgiveness and eternal life is promised to all who accept the invitation to come to Christ and to partake of the cleansing water of life.

Jesus accomplished all His purposes because He loved us and the last thing He said on the cross was "It is finished." We are called to be obedient servants of God.

Now is the accepted time, we must be prepared to meet Jesus when He appears on earth once more. We must repent or we will perish.

"Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)
Jesus was not trying to initiate his death but he was only doing what the God the Father had sent him to do; to fulfill the mission in order to save mankind

"Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)

In worship to God, Jesus was always in touch with his Father who had sent Him for a specific purpose. Jesus knew what his mission on earth was and how it would be accomplished. He said he did only what he had been sent to do, which was not his but the will of Him who had sent him. He also fulfilled all the prophesy about him. He only walked in the path prepared for him, requiring courage, commitment, determination, perserverance.

Like Jesus, our Lord and Savior, each and everyone of us has been put in this world for a specific purpose. Fulfilment of such a purpose can not be found without God in the name of Jesus. We need Jesus to show us the way to the Father and do His will. He is the way, the true, and the life.

What is the Kingdom of God?
The Kingdom of God is the place where he reigns.  In the holy prayer, we say "Let your kingdom come and your will be done.".  The Kingdom of God has his power, glory, peace, and spirit.  The Kingdom of God shows his majesty and creation.  We are part of his kingdom as his daughters and sons through the blood of Jesus. We ask God do show us the way to his Kingdom to do his will.

Why did JesusĀ“ penalty for "sin" need to include physical and emotional pain - why not just spiritual separation from God?
Sin has severe Consequences, the wages of sin is death, first Spiritual death then physical death. Jesus came to take our sins and the torment it had caused us both physically, Emotionaly and Spiritually. He took them and nailed them on the cross. He was done harm for our sake so that we may enjoy better lives in God thro Him.

If you were there during the time when Jesus Christ was about to be crucified, what role would youve played? (considering by Jesus dying we get life through Him, his beatings brings us healing and generally him dying could bring benefit)

Jesus was not inciting people to kill Him. This is because His death was eventually going to take place. It was to take place to bring a fulfilment to God's purpose and prophecies that had Come earlier. It's also clear that The jewish Synagogue leaders had began plotting to kill Him even before the incidents mentioned above came to take place and Jesus used to stay away from situations that can make them get Him because the time was not yet. In fact, the first incidence, they wanted to stone Him but he walked between them and no one touched Him. Therefore I can say that Jesus Didn't incite people to kill Him.
