See The Reason Why Jesus Have Come To This World by Abdulgaffar22: 12:50am On Jan 22, 2017
Jesus said:"I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance (Mark 2:17)". If Jesus has actually come to die for the sinners, he would have mentioned it in this verse since he was talking about the purpose of his coming with respect to the sinners. This verse also explain the reason why original Jesus disciples were only commanded to warn the people with this message: "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand(Matthew 10:5-7)". There was no any mentioning of sin atonement through Jesus Crucifixion in their preaching. The reason is this: the repentance preached by Jesus and his original disciples is enough and sufficient to atone for our sins as stated clearly in Isaiah 55:6-7, Ezekiel 33:10-20, 2 Chronicles 7:14 and Acts 3:19, 2:38. There is no need for an innocent human being to be killed and condemned almost naked on the cross of Calvary before God of love and mercy can forgive our sins. In fact condemnation of an innocent soul has been strictly forbidden in the Bible ( Matthew 12:7,Psalm 34:22 ,Exodus 23:7).Besides, telling people that they will no longer be held responsible for all their sins because one innocent man has already been held responsible on their behalf seems to imply that they are free to commit sins in as much as they believe in this atonement sacrifice. However telling people that, unless they repent sincerely, they themselves will be held responsible for their sins would make them to think twice before committing any sin. Therefore, atonement of sin through repentance is far more reasonable and logical than atonement of sin through Jesus crucifixion. This atonement of sin through repentance is also emphasized in many verses of Qur'an (20:82, 7:153,66:cool. Now you may be confused with this question: If atonement of sins can be achieved through repentance without the need to shed human blood on the cross of Calvary, then why did God command the people of old testament to be shedding the blood of animals for atonement sacrifice?Basically the shedding of animal blood for sacrifice does not violate any divine justice because shedding of animal blood for the purpose of eating their meat or using their skin for leather works has already been made lawful for human being. Therefore there is nothing wrong if God decided to include it as part of scheme of sin atonement for the Israelites. But using Jesus Crucifixion as a sacrifice for sin atonement will encompass two violations of divine justice. One: shedding of innocent human blood for sacrifice is an act of injustice and cruelty. Two: putting an innocent soul under the curse of God on the cross of calvary(Deuteronomy 21:23, Galatian 3:13) for the sins he has never committed is another act of injustice; even greater than the first one. Qur'an 4:157-158 declared that in a miraculous way,Jesus escaped the tragedy of crucifixion and the evidence for this truth can still be found in the Bible; In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed to God asking for the cup of death to be taken away from him in THREE consecutive times(Matthew 26:36-44) and Hebrew 5:7 confirmed that God answered this prayer .
