The Idea Of Jesus Dying For Sin

Sin has become so overlooked by humanity, that the world has taken the Bible and made it a storybook. They have minimized the effect of sin with false beliefs of Jesus forgiving them even when they refuse to repent or to accept Him. Some have used the Genesis account of sin as a fable, while others have tried to eliminate the Savior Jesus’ part in the saving process. They have not even recognized the need for Jesus who sits beside the Father asking for our

Surely throughout his own torture, Jesus Christ also endured his own breaking point. Nonetheless, they both held strong for a time to get their point across. According to Merriam-Webster, a martyr is “a person who is killed or who suffers greatly for a religion, cause, etc.,” (Merriam-Webster). In the end, a martyr is what becomes of both Jesus Christ and Oroonoko. However, many members of the societies in each timeline did not see the importance of the death. After the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the Jews were still under the rule of the Roman Government. Likewise, the slaves were not saved the dismemberment of Oroonoko. The story of Jesus, however, did eventually change the course of history for many. For the legacy of Oroonoko, so to speak, slavery did end at one point. So, in a roundabout way their deaths held a great sense of purpose and importance

From its first pages, the Holy Bible indicates that the most terrible events in the annals of space occur due to the human actions. From the theological point of view, the man is designated with such importance due to the fact of being the reason of war between

When Jesus was sentenced to death on the cross, the people who listened to what Jesus was saying, began to spread the word even more for more people to know. Many people have different opinions on the belief, and how it works. Many people think that all christians think the same thing, like we shouldn't except people who are gay or we cant support abortion, but that's not always true. Christians are mostly labeled by what other Christians have done in the pass or what they have said, but some Christians may not think that being gay is a sin, or that abortion is wrong.

From a historical perspective, back in the time of Jesus’ crucifixion, the Roman Empire was run completely differently than would be today. Pilate’s job as a government official was to run trials and decide who will be killed, and who would be spared. On the day of Jesus’ crucifixion, Pilate had to pick someone to let free, and

There were a number of complexities directly related to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The majority of these pertain not only to the reason for his crucifixion but also for popular interpretation of this act and the significance attributed to it. Jesus taught and did much that was contrary to both Jewish and Roman conceptions of law and religion. Many of his transgressions were also directly related to the nature of his death and the significance it would later on take. Both Romans and Jews sought Jesus' death because he was ecclesiastically and politically subversive, professing a tolerance and equality that was ultimately proven by the dramatic nature of his death and its consequences.

As it was common in his time, Jesus was publicly beaten, with a leather-thonged whip before his crucifixion. Little iron pieces and bone chips were tied to the ends of each leather thong, causing deep cuts and painful bruising. He was mocked, struck in the head with a staff and spit on. A prickly crown of thorns was placed on his head and he was stripped naked. Too weak to carry his cross, Simon of Cyrene was forced to carry it for him.

There Jesus experienced a medical condition known as hematidrosis. Tiny capillaries in His sweat glands ruptured, mixing sweat and blood. As a result, Christ’s skin became extremely fragile.[5] As Luke’s gospel says, “being in anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.”(Luke 22:44) Subsequently He’s arrested, He’s beaten and He’s executed in grotesque and humiliating fashion. The Roman system of crucifixion has been fine-tuned to produce maximum pain. In fact, the word excruciating (literally “out of the cross”) had to be invented to fully codify its horror.[6] To tell Colbert and vicariously the world that in Luke’s Gospel Jesus is not in agony at all, takes more than just a little gall on the part of

Crucifixion was reserved for foreigners, the worst of the worst criminals, the slave class. It was a shameful, painful death. Yet, Christ went from being equal with God in heaven to a very obscure servant and only because he was a foreigner of the Roman Empire and he was of the servant and slave class, was he even eligible for death on the cross. Christ is portrayed to be constantly lowering his status by choice. However, because Jesus died on the cross he could once again rise to glory in heaven because he realize the true significance in giving his life for others and God keeping with his nature gave the rarest honor he had by giving Christ the name above all names showing that he Lord of the universe to be recognized by all.

replace the existing temple with a new one, there are a number of different reconstruction of a series of events constituting Jesus’ arrest trial and condemnation. The roman crucifixion was commonly preceded by scourging which apparently weakened Jesus to the point he could no longer carry the cross beam on which he died. The horror and brutality associated with crucifixion may be difficult for us to visualize today. Can we say the story of Jesus was at an end or just the beginning, the earliest Christians insisted that Jesus’ death on the cross was not the end of his life and that he repaired to many of them alive again?

Jesus was put on this earth, humbled as a man, to die so that we could be righteous in God’s eyes. In the Bible, Matthew 27:37 states that Jesus, King of Jews was crucified, not Judas. Jesus had to become cursed to save us from our sins, so he was crucified on a cross. The Romans clearly did not allow for Jesus to escape the cross alive, as they were advanced people. They had crucified people before, and knew to make sure they were dead. Also, Jesus was thirsty in the cross, which was most likely a result of the beatings he had previously received. Finally, if Jesus had not risen from the dead, he would not have shown us how awesome he is. He died, and rose again! It’s truly amazing. It was his resurrection which inspired the disciples. John 5:8 states, “Jesus said to them, ‘Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” Jesus could not be before Abraham if he was simply a man.

The film also depicted that crucifixion was typically a form of death that was harsh, violent, and humiliating, which is accurate in comparison to crucifixions in history. In the film, Jesus was spit on, and the Romans mocked him, saying that if were really the king, that he would save himself. This picture of the Jesus’ crucifixion, and the violence that forced upon him, that was displayed in the film, The Passion of the Christ was an accurate description of what actually happened during crucifixions during the ancient times (Religions).

Jesus had to carry his own cross, that probably weighed two times his size, all the way up to wear the crucifixion was going to take place. Already beaten and bloody, they lay him down onto the cross shaped piece of wood and begin by nailing his hands and feet into it and standing the cross up into the air. What a brutal sight it must have been for God to see his only son tortured like this, but the good news is that he knew what his plan was for Jesus and for his people and he knew what was going to happen after all this was over. Jesus died hanging from that cross, washing all of our sin away and paying the ultimate sacrifice. After he died he was wrapped in a white cloth and placed into a tomb with a boulder sealing the door to the outside world. Three days after being placed in there, the people went to check up on the tomb to find that the boulder was pushed aside and the white cloth was folded neatly where Jesus was laying. The son of God, the Messiah, rose again from the dead to fulfill his mission so that we may have everlasting life in God’s kingdom. God’s plan for our life and through Jesus he teaches us that if we follow in God’s word and make him our most prized possession and ask for him to be in our hearts that we may to “escape the penalty that God will execute upon all who have broken His

Henry eulogizes Christ when he talks about how the Roman’s crucified the Son of God on the cross, to die a violent painful death, which then his soul did then separate from his body leaving him truly dead. After all, it was a certainty that he must die according to scripture and prophecy as he had taken upon himself the task to sacrifice his flesh for our sins. (2073). Stapfer describes the events of Jesus death at the hands of the Roman’s in a particularly gruesome custom. He tells us that it was Roman custom to break the legs of the criminal and then to pierce the heart of the person on the cross, when death took them then they left the individual on the cross until the birds had devoured them. John tells us “But one of the soldiers pierced

Entrapped by the scorching arms of brutality; it was the dawn of an apocalypse when Jesus was condemned to suffer a lingering, agonizing death in public. Although it is the crucifixion, which is a symbol for the excruciating pain that He went through that is recognized as the cause of his death today, medical experts consider many other physiological reasons for his death on the cross.
