THE SHORTEST VERSION OF CHRISTIANITY THAT HAS NEVER COME TO YOUR MIND

When we cut off all the stories embellishing the myth of Christianity , we can actually break it down to just this:


"God was angry because Adam disobeyed Him by eating the forbidden fruit. Due to this very disobedience of their father, all the children of Adam were spiritually condemned (Romans 5:12,17-19) . The only way they can be saved from this spiritual condemnation is for God to send His ONLY innocent and righteous son to the earth and have the children of the same Adam torture and kill him, so that God can forgive them and everyone else for what Adam did".


This is the Christianity in a nutshell and it points out the ABSURDITY OF WASHING AWAY ONE SINFUL ACT WITH ANOTHER SINFUL ACT THAT IS MUCH MORE GREATER . After all, if Adam's eating the forbidden fruit was enough to condemn all the future generations of human being, then would not the brutal killing of the innocent and righteous son of God on the cross do the same and even much, much more?

God commanded Adam not to eat the forbidden fruit (Genesis 3:3), but he ate it and therefore, he committed a SINFUL ACT.

Similarly, God commanded the children of Adam not to kill an innocent and righteous soul ( Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18), but they killed the soul and therefore, they committed an act of MURDER which is also a SINFUL ACT.

Consequently, BOTH THE TWO SINFUL ACTS need atonement (i:e need to be washed away).

Therefore, ONE SINFUL ACT ( which itself also need atonement) CAN NEVER ATONE FOR ANOTHER SINFUL ACT.


IT IS ONLY THE ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS( which itself does not need any atonement) THAT CAN ATONE FOR SINFUL ACTS.


ACTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS -like animal sacrifice, sincere repentance, forgiving other people's faults, devotional prayer, fasting, giving of charity CAN ATONE FOR SINFUL ACTS.


But SINFUL ACTS like murder, theft, fornication, adultery, back biting, blasphemy, bearing false witness, lying etc CAN NEVER ATONE FOR ANOTHER SINFUL ACT.


We all know that 'murder' i:e killing an innocent and righteous human being is a SINFUL ACT. This is the reason why God forbid it (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18) . Therefore, God Almighty can NEVER use such a SINFUL ACT( which itself also need atonement) to atone for all the SINFUL ACTS of humanity. This is EXACTLY the place where Christianity get it wrong .


In other words, God Almighty who says: "An innocent and righteous human being MUST NOT be killed (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18)" would NOT LATER CONTRADICT HIMSELF by saying: "An innocent and righteous human being MUST be killed" on the cross of Calvary BEFORE THE HUMANITY CAN GAIN ETERNAL LIFE .

Honestly, the way of the Lord our God can be higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9) but the way of the Lord our God can NEVER be contradictory.

The Christians may want to argue that killing of innocent and righteous Jesus on the cross is NOT A SINFUL ACT because it was Jesus himself that VOLUNTEER to die for our sins without being forced by God.

But if it is true that Jesus has volunteered himself to die for our sins, then why did he pray so FERVENTLY asking for the crucifixion to be TAKEN AWAY from him in THREE different consecutive times (Matthew 26:36-44) ? If Jesus had truly and willingly laid down his life in heaven to die for our sin, then he must have been prepared by God both physically and spiritually for this great task. In that case, there would be no need for that bloody sweating prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:44). Even if we assume that Jesus must pray because of the FLESH that is WEAK, then that prayer should definitely be for the "STRENGTH" that will enable him to bear the task. It should NOT be for the cup of crucifixion to be TAKEN AWAY from him.
Furthermore, if Jesus had VOLUNTEERED to laid down his life in heaven, then why did he have to LAMENT on the cross by saying allegedly;
"My God, my God, why have you FORSAKEN me? (Matthew 27:46)".

Does this sound like the voice of a someone who has VOLUNTEERED himself to die for our sins? Certainly not !

Therefore, if we are to accept all these lamentations and bloody sweating prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane to be true, then it is totally UNREASONABLE to proclaim that Jesus has VOLUNTARILY laid down his life to die for our sins. Therefore, the alleged killing of innocent Jesus on the cross is nothing but a MURDER. And murder is a SINFUL ACT.

Moreover, killing an innocent and righteous soul is BY ITSELF a sinful act because it is a direct violation of divine justice . This is the reason why God Himself forbids it (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18). Therefore, the fact that the whole plan was masterminded by God as proclaimed by the Christians or the fact that Jesus volunteer himself to fulfil the plan did NOT change it from a SINFUL ACT to a righteous act.
In fact, we can equally claim that Adam's eating the forbidden fruit was also masterminded by God because God knew beforehand that Adam was going to eat the fruit and He has the power to prevent him and He did not . Yet this does not change what Adam did from a sinful act to a righteous one.
Similarly, if we ASSUME that alleged killing of Jesus on the cross was truly masterminded by God, then this can not change what the children of Adam did to Jesus from a SINFUL ACT to a righteous one. Especially when we take into consideration that alleged killing of innocent and righteous Jesus by the children of Adam completely NEGATE the God's command in Exodus 20:13 and Matthew 19:18.
So no matter how you feel it, the alleged killing of innocent and righteous Jesus on the cross is still a SINFUL ACT (i:e a murder)


As we have already established above, a sinful act, like MURDER (which itself also need atonement) can NEVER atone for another sinful act talk less of all the sinful acts of humanity.


IT IS ONLY THE ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS (which itself does not need any atonement) that can atone for the sinful acts of humanity. For example;

# Animal sacrifice (see Leviticus 5:7, 16:1-30),

# Sincere repentance ( see Isaiah 55:7, Jeremiah 36:3 Ezekiel 33:10-16, Luke 5:32, Acts 2:38),

# Forgiving other people's faults ( see Matthew 6:14, Mark 11:25, Luke 6:37),

# Devotional prayer (see 1st Kings 8:46-50, 2nd Chronicles 7:14 ),

# Fasting (see Jonah 3:5-10 )

# Giving of charity and showing mercy to the poor (see Exodus 30:15-16, Numbers 31:50, Daniel 4:27 )

are all RIGHTEOUS ACTS which God has used in the Bible to atone for the sins committed by different set of people.


In the light of all these facts, we are free to conclude that there is NO NEED for God to use the alleged ACT OF MURDER committed against the innocent and righteous Jesus(which itself also need atonement) to atone for our sins.

God can decide to choose from all the ACTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS LISTED ABOVE ( which themselves do not need any atonement) to wipe away the sins committed by Adam and his Children.


In that case, God must have answered that FERVENT prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. Therefore, he must have escaped the death on the cross in a miraculous way (Qur'an 4:157) and he must have escaped the CURSE of God associated with anyone that died on the cross (Deuteronomy 21:23). Hence, Jesus (peace be upon him) could not have been that accursed person on the cross who deserved to be FORSAKEN by God (Matthew 27:46). Of course, it is totally IRRATIONAL for an innocent, righteous and beloved prophet of God to be accursed and forsaken by the same God.

When you take off the BLINDERS that are blocķing your view, you will realize that Christianity does not make any sense.

I don't need faith for Adam's sin to affect me but I need to believe Jesus to receive his salvation. Any truth that needs faith to operate it is fake.
