Why did Jesus suffer for sinners and not victims

But, no.... we know better! And that was the original sin. Not eating a fig, or an apple. Turning away was the sin.
And we continue to turn away...I'm guilty! We're all guilty! Guilty in the womb! No one human, is innocent of sin.

And, God in His abundant Mercy, gave us a way to come back to Him. And reconcile Himself to us, through His Son, Jesus.
And if anyone says they would rather watch their own child suffer over themselves.... I'd like to know it?

In short; He paid the price for putting the choice in front of us. And He went through death, to break the curse: Which
"was" for sinners only. Death has lost it's sting, through innocent blood being spilled.

Now, we can "choose to believe", or not. We still have a choice! That's the amazing thing about God's Mercy!!

"Let he, who has understanding, hear!" "Fear not those who kill the body. But fear the ONE who can destroy both the body & soul..."

Alas, no amount of explaining will convince the unbeliever. True "understanding" only happens to those
who sincerely search for God. He leaves no searcher unanswered. That is the promise.

Now go back and replace "Jesus" with "Horus", and "god" with "Ra", and see how ridiculous these stories sound to the rest of us.

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
