Substitutionary Atonement! WTF?

[Haipule]

Who the fuck comes up with this shite!
I like it, but only because it sounds like divine legal gobbledygook. lol!

"Yeah, I know I killed all those people your honour, because I'm a sick fuck, but hey, here, take my 90 year old father instead and we'll just call it even!
  (*whispers* shhhh... don't tell anyone but the old man's got cancer and will be dead anyway soon!)

And people really believe God would come up with stuff like this? When he can make anything happen anyway? Pretty bloody convoluted isn't it?

Obviously it wasn't God as it wasn't "invented" until the middle ages (below).

As an ignoramus, I'm genuinely curious now to know what core beliefs in the current modern day bible are actually original?

Skeptics commonly criticize core Christian beliefs by claiming that they were not really held by the earliest Christians. Instead, we are told, these beliefs were invented post facto by the institutional church.

The classic example of such an argument has to do with the divinity of Jesus. The earliest followers of Jesus didn’t really believe that Jesus was divine, this argument goes; it was only the later institutional church, under political pressure from Emperor Constantine, that insisted Jesus must have divine status. Thus, some argue, the belief that Jesus is God is not really, well, Christian.

Substitutionary Atonement

This same sort of argument has also been applied to other doctrines, particularly the substitutionary nature of the atonement. Critical scholars, led by the classic work of Gustaf Aulén, have long argued that the earliest Christians did not believe that Christ died as a substitute for sinners. Instead, they say, these Christians believed what is known as the “Christus victor” view of the atonement—the idea that Jesus’s death on the cross (and resurrection) conquered the Devil and other forces that held people in bondage. On this view, Christ did not die in place of rebellious sinners but instead rescued victims from a fallen world

Great post Eg! Yeah, Xtians are full of shit! The Scriptural revelation is that God became a man in the person of Jesus. IOW's, Jesus is God but was never so before He was born. Also IOW's, whatever happened before His birth was 100% God/Lord and NOT Jesus! Also, IOW's: God became a man named Yeshua(Hebrew), iEsous(Greek), Jesus(English--since the mid 15th century when the "J" letter and sound was introduced: before that: Yesus)! 


You see, theologians say that Jesus is God and has always existed, even before He was even born! Such are "trinity" doctrines.


God/Jesus, did NOT die as a "substitute". It was only necessary to pay an enacted ransom payment(atonement) because, "Death reigned from Adam(caused, and Only caused by the parabasis of Adam), until Moses(when the animal offerings, instituted by Moses, set the things of death, and it's rulership, aside until the proper time of the true offering), which was, apparently, God death!


Well, God can't die! So God became a man, in the person of Jesus, to die and pay that ransom so we all could be free from the tyranny of death--Satan's plan! However, God's plan has always been life. God found a way! 


You know what's totally cool? Paul said the He was raised because of our subsequent rightification! And therefore, had no reason to be dead! He was raised the third day because we were all declared as PERECT--Just like Adam before his parabasis(motion against a fixed point or standard)! 


Satan now is COMPLETELY dysfunctional!


Well then, party on Ig! It's now our turn!!!!
