That is because Jesus was God on earth, and whose life was sinless and who had the authority to know when a person is truly a fool. A person can say they do believe in God but their lives run contrary to those words. Only God can read the heart.

He warned us not to call anyone a fool, because by so doing you're saying they don't know God, which is a means of passing judgment on someone, and secondly you are placing yourselves in God's position of judge of every heart.

David once said under inspiration "the fool hath saith in his heart there is no God"

So if a person's words and life deny the existence of God then such a person is a fool.

So your problem is not that He died, but rather God having to die for us humans. What does that reveal to you about the true God? Yes, God so loved the world that He was willing to give up His Son to become one of us, and to suffer the worst suffering ever meted out to humans, so that you Abuzola can have life everlasting.

Let me ask respectfully. What has your religion taught you about how Allah has proven His love?

that is exactly where we differ you see, our own GOD the alpha and the omega,the beginning and the end the locator,the provider jehovah el shadai,jehova jireh,the rose of sharon who formed us in his own image and who unconditionally loves us, wanted to redeem us from sin,to give us an opportunity to cleanse ourselves from the first sin from adam and eve and all the other sins.

he looked around for a worthy sacrifice and he could find none worthy enough or holy and blameless and sinless enough but his son jesus christ,
to redeem us his lovely creatures,whom he loved more than anything you can think of remember he created us in his own image to shopw how much he loved and cherished his creation.
the only people who did the same thing are two different people and they got the reward

1.abraham
-which is why he is called THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, because abraham did something no human could do but GOD.

2.the king of the moabites when he was attacked by the israelites,he offered up his first born son,heir apparent to the throne, even though it wasnt GOD's will as the king was not of GOD,the lord had to cause the israelites to suddenly turn back in confusion and go back home

If you had a choice between saving your son, and seeing a train load of people perish, by attempting to save your son, what would you do? Save your son or save those people?

God didn't force His Son to come and suffer for us Abuzola. His Son chose to come and suffer in order to prevent sin from spreading throughout the universe. The Deity could have done away with sin and sinners in a moment if they so desired and it would have been their right to do so, but because God is love, and since the only way to save humans was by sending His Son, He did it.

Justice and mercy met at the cross.

Because God's everlasting law was broken and since God could not change His standards, and rather than compromise justice, someone had to pay the penalty of a broken law that led to sin.

He could have removed the requirements of the broken law, but that is not how God operates. God's government would have been compromised, and Satan would have had just cause to blame Him, as he did in heaven. Recall that there was war in heaven due to Satan's rebellion.

Satan's desire is to make us think that God's government cannot be trusted, and that His laws are not capable of being kept since the Law giver Himself cannot be trusted.

Well, the Father and Son agreed to redeem man through the voluntary death of His Son, without having to compromise His justice system. The rest is history.

what?

Did the bible not say that jesus warned people not to call each others fools but when around calling people fools? Did the bible not say that jesus told people to have strong faith in god but when his time came to show his own faith in his god when he was about to be killed he cried and accused his god of forsaking him even though the bible says that was his mission on earth. . . ? Is that not hypocrisy . . .

As usual you pick up what you cannot understand. As was explained over and over again Jesus is God and knows each heart. He warns against calling others fools since we do not know their hearts unless of course they give us reasons to call them that.

Crying doesn't make one a coward, and certainly not Jesus who faced the Roman guards in the garden of Gethsemane. He could have ran away as His disciples did, but He stood His ground, because it was His time. Often times He said His hour had not yet come, and that is because He came not just to die, but to teach the way of truth, and to set an example to those who bore witness.

He cried on the cross because His Father turned away from Him on the cross, and only so because at that moment in time Jesus "became sin for us". At that moment in time Jesus bore the sins of the past, present, and future.

Hence the Father could not look at Him, and withdrew His presence from Him for more than the reasons stated above. You see Jesus had to bear it all on His own. He had to suffer up until the very last moment all by Himself.

That only goes to show how much God the Father really hates sin. He couldn't even look at His Son.

It depends on the law in question. Not all OT laws are still applicable. Besides, not all Christians agree on what constitutes the laws of God. There are several codes that deal with different issues.

The law of which I speak are God's eternal laws that were always with God, even before creation. It governs human behaviour, and morals.

It was this moral code that Satan first broke, and who led our first parents to break as well.

Yes its difficult to understand, but in time you'll come to see the truth.

If you develop a better understanding and appreciation for the true nature of sin, and the plan of salvation that God introduced, then you will understand why not even Jesus' Father could tolerate looking at sin, even while His own Son bore it on the Roman cross.

Jesus felt the emptiness, as part of the suffering, that only one can feel when God's presence is removed. You may choose to dwell on the suffering but we Christians know He has risen from the dead and is coming back again for all those who love Him, and live for Him.

You just make sure you're ready to meet the king.

Some laws were meant to be temporary. God's universal law is eternal. This law predates sin, but had to be transcribed in such a fashion to fit our setting.
Re: Whats Your Opinion About Jesus, The Christian God by GODSON2009(m): 11:32pm On Sep 20, 2009
did mohammad not change as well?lol
remember when he spoke in support of the 3pagan godess daughters of allah?

and then later hurriedly did an about turn

remember when he was ingratiating himself to the jews?even praying in the direction of jerusalem

when he had finished using them for his means,he suddenly realised their doctrines which he has been exposed to from birth,up untill his twenties/thirties was defective,and he blantantly betrayed them.

did he not change from a normal guy to a bloodthirsty renegade?

Who says Jesus wasn't human Abuzola? Of course He was afraid, but not so much about dying, but about the burden of sin that He'd have to bear for the whole generations, from the past, present and future. And that is why He prayed to His father that if it were possible remove the bitter cup, but then again He went on to pray that His Father's will be done.

No one including me can try to downplay what Jesus might have anticipated. Remember He was tempted because He was human, and that is what makes the whole thing very interesting and appealing.

You see because Jesus passed the test we too can pass whatever tests we face in life if we learn to lean on Jesus' strength and grace.

that means you have not been reading your quran and hadiths sire, allah meaning supreme being is considered by the arabians to be the god of creation,in addition they believe he had three daughters which pre islamic arabia worshipped and the idols amongst others kept in the kaaba,now mohammad in the quran supported the triune gods and if you have no knowledge of that,then you need to go and meet the likes of olabowale to tutor you,or go and check my posts on this forum where i have posted the verses,i cant be conducting your own research for you
