May 18, 2007 Why did Jesus? penalty for sin need to include physical and emotional pain - why not just spiritual separation from God? God separates Himself from Jesus because all of the evils of mankind are placed on Jesus. This spiritual separation is the heaviest sacrifice which Jesus pays on behalf of mankind, so that mankind does not need to suffer spiritual separation from God. The above statement expresses the absolute answer to the QUESTION.

May 14, 2007 Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders? No not at all. He was sent into this world to declare the GOSPEL and it was predestined that he should suffer and die and rise again on the third day so that we can have eternal LIFE. He preached the TRUTH without fear and when it was necessary to take the whip He did it. He did not either hesitate to call the religious leaders in their face, hypocretes. He accomplished the WILL OF GOD even unto death; a death on the cross. We are all expected to be forthright as he was without fear.

May 14, 2007 Which of these purposes do you believe Jesus accomplished? Jesus accomplished all the objectives that He was expected to accomplish. First and foremost He lived a perfect deciplined life obedient to God Almighty, which Adam failed miserably. The consequence of that disobedience was the DEATH SENTANCE. In order to overcome the death sentance a PERFECT SACRIFICE was required and that objective was fullfilled by JESUS in his blemishless life even unto death on the cross. By resurrectiong on the 3rd day He defeated death. Through Him ''Jesus'' the relationship that GOD ALMIGHTY originally had with Adam was reestablished, so that we became the sons and daughters of God and heirs to the Kingdom of God.
