But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Exactly why the fuckwould God want us to live with him. Heck te original purpose of hell was for Satan and h's Angels lol funny how god for some reason didn't realise he woud send humans who he loved there lol

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

How does that change anything?

If another Jesus came and did the same things today, working for the same god, then god would have to send far fewer people to hell.

He just wanted to set the stage for Salvation and all the miracles around that were just a side show not really of any worth. Salvation was about reducing the number of people in Hell. All the rest was just making people's wordily lives better. There were a couple instances of Jesus saying that a person's sins were forgiven, but the real work occurred on the Cross. His ministry vs. his mission of ultimate Salvation is akin to give a man a fish vs. teach a man to fish.

Yes, but today we live in a world of atleast 4 Billion non Christians that his ministry could reach in days. Most of which will go to hell if nothing is done.

Since God already provided the path, I doubt He would want to do so again. This is the same God who wiped out civilizations left and right for disobeying Him.

Because all we have of the jesus of yesterday is largely inaccurate accounts of hearsay recorded by anonymous authors, given to us through copies of copies of copies. This way I would have soemthign far more credible to put my faith into.,
