He is the only hope there is for this lost and dying world. My question though, and maybe I didn't make this clear, is WHY did he come die for our sins? I personally believe that he didn't come with the main purpose of dying for our sin, I think he came with the purpose of proving his love to us, and showing he loves us so that we may love him in return...don't you think? God's love for you and me, and everybody else! AMEN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The message is that He is the only way to do this on earth and experience it in Heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that you believe Jesus' main purpose wasn't to die for us? The entire purpose in Christ coming was the culminated in the Cross. He repeatedly told His disciples that He would die and raise in three days. The entire purpose of Christ as God in the flesh was to die for our sins so that we might be restored to fellowship with God the Father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, his purpose was to restore our fellowship with the Father, he did so out of love. Therefore he came to prove his love to us, so that we could be with, and KNOW him. Both here and after we die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both here and after we die. Right, but He did this intentionally through dying. To say that He didn't die for our sins, or that wasn't His main purpose, is to throw out the Gospel. The only way fellowship could be restored is by His death for our sins. Without that, there is no fellowship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should think the answer provided in Scripture is self-explanatory: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
