The Trinity Explained

[IceSage]

Give that man his dollar and Min don't spend it all in one place. I never said Christ was not God as a matter of fact many of those verses I also posted and not one says anything about God sacrificing Himself to Himself. The sacrifice was made for mankind not to God. The sacrifice was made to cover our sin, not to convince God to forgive us. God forgave us before He created us if He had not then why create us at all.

By you saying this, you're suggesting that mandkind has the ability to control our own fate and we were able to cover up our sin at any given point. You're suggesting we even have the power to eradicate and abolish evil, without the power of God. To for whom are we giving the sacrifice to? Not us.

So, God isn't the one throwing us in an eternal Hell... We are? Because that's what you're saying.

Say I lived in those times back then, even spoke to God directly. Say I told everyone I didn't believe in God, and that I hate him after speaking to him, and that I want nothing to do with him. So... Who then would be the one judging me and throwing me into eternal torment? Would it be humanity, myself? Or would it be God? Because the individual doesn't want to harm themselves, so it must be some other entity outside of that human's control. IE. God.

Stop pussyfooting around. The sacrifice was to appease God, period.
