Why Jesus was sacrified?

Sin is rebellion and treason against God. The penalty for sin is death. Since God is a just judge, He must sentence sinners to death. However, God is also a loving God. So, His plan was to send His own Son, Jesus, to receive the death penalty for sin so that anyone who believes in Jesus will not have to pay that penalty themselves. When they believe in Jesus, they are united to Him by faith. Their sin is accounted to Him and His perfect righteousness is accounted to them. That is how a person is made right with God. It is a wonderful exchange! Jesus was sacrificed because it was God's wonderful, loving plan to save His people.

Another perspective:

  • "God is also a loving God. So, His plan was to send His own Son, Jesus..." Therefore Jesus cannot at the same time be Yahweh!

Jesus was not sacrificed - everyone will pay for his/her own sin on that Day.

  • But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the Day of Judgment for every empty word they have spoken [Matthew 12:36]
  • So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God [Romans 14:12]
