Have you read The Law that God gave us please, found in the first five books of the Bible?
In it there are animal sacrifices required as a punishment for sin/breaking The Law. The animal was sacrificed to both foreshadow "self" sacrifice as well as to provide an incentive not to sin, as a man's wealth was in their livestock, and having to sacrifice one's best breeding stock would be costly both in the short term and in the long term.
"Self" sacrifice is the crucifixion of the human and its ego, through discipline, which needs to take place every minute of every day, to be able to actually do God's Will ("Islam" in Arabic). As long as the self (ego) is in control, it will do its own selfish will.
The crucifixion of Jesus, Whom the immortal Spirit-Being Christ incarnated replaced substitute animal sacrifice with "self" sacrifice. And the resurrection provided this world with proof of God's power to raise Jesus from the dead, and that there is
spiritual life after the death of the human body.
God is
NOT a hypocrite or a liar, and He has made it crystal clear in His Law that the penalty for sin is
DEATH. So how will
YOU pay for your past sins/crimes? The
SOUL (spirit-Being) that sins shall
SURELY die. And anyone who hasn't accepted both the Old Covenant and the New Covenant in their entirety, is calling God a liar (as most so-called Muslims do).
The Koran/Quran repeatedly tells us that it's impossible for the Bible to have been corrupted by puny humans, and that any true believer should not be in doubt of the true Bible reaching them. So anyone who believes differently is calling God a liar, which is breaking the very first Commandment. You cannot call God a liar whilst claiming to love and serve Him with all of your heart, mind, soul and strength.
Because you've been
wrongly taught not to believe God by spiritually blind guides that teach people to oppose God with their silly religious superstitions.
ALL organized religion was created by Lucifer/Satan/Iblis to keep people
away from God.
Anyone who genuinely loves Father (God) and his or her fellow man will recognize Father's Message of Truth regardless of who delivers the message. The Prophets provide us with a spiritual roadmap to lead everyone to Christ, THE Example that each of us need to be like to be released from this prison planet reform school for the criminally insane.
That's why Christ is the one Father made superior to all others, and chose to send to sort all of this out.
Sura 3:55. Behold!
God said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme;
I will make those who follow thee SUPERIOR to those who reject faith, to The Day of Resurrection: then shall ye all return unto Me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.
Sura 43:57-61
43:57.
When (Jesus) the son of Mary is held up as an example, behold, thy people raise a clamour thereat (in ridicule)!
43:58. And they say, "Are our gods best, or he?" This they set forth to thee, only by way of disputation: yea, they are a contentious people.
43:59. He was no more than a servant ("I came not to do mine own will, but the Will of Him that sent me" -
John 6:38): We granted Our favour (Christ) to him (
Sura 4:171), and We made him the Example to the Children of Israel (
John 14:6).
43:60. And if it were Our Will, We could make angels from amongst you, succeeding each other on the Earth.
43:61.
And (Christ the Saviour/Mahdi) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) The Hour (of Judgment): therefore have no doubt about The (Hour), but follow ye Me: this is The Straight Way.
If Jesus, the Lamb of God, had not been sacrificed in our place, then we would all already be dead according to The Law, having earned the death penalty for our sins, in this lifetime and in every other.
ALL of us have earned the death penalty under The Law for the sins/crimes that we have committed (see
Deut. 28).
Agreed. But no one can
truly repent while ridiculing and calling God and His Anointed One liars, can they?
