If Jesus literally bore our sins, paid for our sin, or died for our sins, then we have no need to, die to sin because this was done by proxy by your reasoning.

The meaning of, He Himself bore our sins is that Jesus was likely fully aware of the consequences of His actions. His actions were a sacrifice to assist us to free ourselves from sin.

The consequences of Jesus delivering a series of teachings to educate and uplift the human condition came with the knowledge that He would be put to a terrible death. He thereby sacrificed His life for humanity to rekindle in the human heart the love of God and to deliver people from sin. God did not need to see Jesus murdered to reestablish a covenant with humanity. It was always intact. Humanity had fallen to sleep, they had lost their way. Jesus illumined the path to God via the extreme sacrifice and the way to God was clearly established again.

To literally die for our sins is an injustice because Jesus can't take responsibility for your or my sin. Each human is the owner of and is completely responserable for their own sins. Nobody can literally die for you so that your sins no longer exist.

Also you did not exist when Jesus was murdered so how could He for non existing sins? It makes no sense in a literal sense.

Not so much the gospel of Waffle at all. Some beliefs just slip on through without getting tested by reason. To die for our sins would be a gross injustice and I doubt Jesus and your God would be party to such an injustice.

I have to say Waffle that your gospel of "human reason" is not shared by the Gospel according to the Apostles

Romans 5:18 So then as through one transgression (Adam) there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness (Christ) there resulted justification of life to all men. 19 For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.

1 John 1:5 This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; 7 but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.
