This is a "catch-22" subject. If God knew in advance that Jesus would be killed on a cross and:

1- could have stopped it, but didn't, God was an example of an extremely cruel father.

2- couldn't have stopped it, God is not Omnipotent and therefore is no god.

It would seem that an omnipotent god could have forgiven the people and cleansed them of sin simply by wishing it so!
