guys the bible is very simple not complicated so many questions raised here are not important to your salvation
1. did the old testement predict the coming of a messia yes
2.why was jesus the mesia because the o/t predicted clearly what he would do and how he would be treated and how he would die
3.why did jesus have to come and be crucified
god being a just god could not sweep sin under the table so jesus death was a sacrifice to god -- a perfect lamb--- for all the sins of people who will follow him
so we are saved by gods grace who sent his son to pay the price of our sin
can any human understand the sacrifice that this was to god the father could any of you sacrifice your son to save terrorists
look at galations 2 paul makes it chrystal clear we are saved by grace not by what we do
of coures once we under stand that jesus came to" save me"meaning yourself he gives us his spirit to live as he would want us to live
will christians fail at times
absolutely we are still under satins attack but jesus the christ will pick us up and send us on our way knowing that in spite of our weakness we are still saved u812
