Did you ever want to do something that you were afraid to do? You may hesitate and try to find excuses not to do it, but you know that you will because that's what you really want oe need to do. Jesus was dealing with his fear of what was to come.
Quote:Still waiting for the explanation of how murder absolves you of evil deeds, including the murder you commit to absolve yourself of past deeds.
If I commit murder, it doesn't absolve me of my sins. The only blood that does is the blood of Jesus. That is the only blood sacrifice that saves us. The old testament sacrifices were useless to absolve anyone from sin.
Nobody ever held me down and hurt me when I changed my mind about doing something I previously agreed to do, because that would be wrong. The second I change my mind about something, I no longer want to do it. I am no longer a voluntary participant. A common example people use is the idea of sex. Most people like sex. Most people would agree to sex, if their schedule was open. But when one person says no, the other person should back off, because then it becomes rape. The gy spent over an hour, repeatedly praying to avoid this, and in the end, the Father still didn't have the balls to watch the whole thing.
One murder is as bad as another. What absolved people of Jesus' murder? Or did everyone involved just go straight to hell? Your god commanded animals be killed just because he got off on the smell of blood, or something? Blood and pain is the one thing that makes him happy? This makes no sense.
