Yes but he was never going to get to that point. He knew that it was his mission and duty in life to give his life for humanity.

:lol: Maybe his oven would disconnect from his gas line, and then when he lit a match it would blow up his house, or something.

Yes but he was never going to get to that point. He knew that it was his mission and duty in life to give his life for humanity.

So him being crucified was his destiny?

No, it was a choice that he knew he would make.

Yes.

My choice would have been to wipe out the bad guys and live another day...To me a son of god or a god should have been able to that without blinking a eye..

That's probably why you weren't chosen to be the Christ. ;)

He wasn't God's only son. He was God's only begotten son in the flesh. And he didn't send him to die. Christ offered to be the sacrificial lamb.

No. I believe He would have lived forever because He was without sin.

he sent his son to die because he loves us? why wouldnt he keep his son alive to continue to preach and continue to set us in the right spiritual direction?

Because the power of atonement could only be met with the perfect blood of God himself. The technical reason to why and how that is true is a mystery to me at this time....but I've felt the results and whole heartily believe it to be true.

Because actions speak louder than words.
