God Murdered son? 🌟

Q: did God murdered his son? How is that merciful or compassionate or loving(?)

A: the entire Bible points to God revealing his attributes to mankind, including love.

👉If you have children, you would do anything to protect them even if it meant giving your life. Exchanging, "taking their place." 🌟That is what Jesus is doing for His own (the believers, the sheep).

Is God a blood thirsty evil being who killed his son?

No. In fact Jesus death on the cross was about both showing the seriousness of sin and shows it is about the penalty required against evil, to redeem, save people from it. Jesus was taking our place. It also points to His love for goodness, his love for his creation and his love for the victims of evil. His wrath is ultimately an outpouring of his love. Jesus said he laid down his life. God revealed many of his attributes to us in order to show his love, grace, mercy, forgiveness, righteousness and justice, when God, God the Father killed Jesus the Son on the cross. The perfect God revealed these amazing attributes, and showed us he is The God who loves. He went to extreme lengths to save us.

Jesus came to earth with a mission, He gave up his own life. He gave it up, the Father did kill Him, but Jesus went willingly, as planned, and prophecied since Eden. The Father poured his wrath on Jesus (for paying for the sins of those who would believe). Jesus left that human body when he planned to, did so and as he said he did: John 10:18

Jesus wasn't a victim of an abusive father. Jesus willingly laid down his life to SAVE humans from God's wrath and judgement against sin.

John 10:18👇

[Jesus said] No one takes it [my life] from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.

1st John 3:16

By this we know what love is: Jesus laid down His life for us

John 3:16 For God loved you IN THIS WAY

He gave His one and only Son so that anyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.

That's why the good news is such good news! God did the work to save us from Hell and offers eternal life as a free gift, thru Jesus.

That while we were [enemy of God] sinners Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

We didn't deserve it at all. We deserve Hell. But God showed His Grace and Mercy thru the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

The loving God made salvation posdible for you.

Obey the Gospel today, Repent and trust in Jesus.
