but i thought you have to accept jesus as christ and savior to be save, OT people haven't even heard of his name...
are sins separate entities from the sinners then to be destroyed by god? i thought they are just actions.

Brod, your idea about Christianity is a distorted one. All of those figures which they claim to have predates Jesus Christ dont have proof that they exist. Try to watch this one: YouTube - Zeitgeist REFUTED & DEBUNKED! (Religious Portion)
That's a good question in fact I also raised that one before. Christ is the forthcoming sacrifice for the Old testament believers. The animal sacrifice is the picture/shadow of the event that is going to happen and it is the means for the atonement of their sins. When Abrahan offers Isaac and is about to slay his son, the Lord stopped his hand saying that He will provide. Many years after, as we know this story that the Son of God was offered and was slayed to death as a sacrifice for the sins of the world.i've always wondered, what happened to those who haven't even heard of or was born before jesus of nazareth? were they damned after death? the god of love which jesus spoke of doesn't seem the type to damn his creation...
Only God knows who were His children and those who obeyed his commandments before the grace period (time of Christ).
Then according to your post, then Christ's death was in vain. Because many people still sin. And they still go to church at the same time. And not too many people listen to his first and foremost commandment. They just want the easy way out, to "wipe all their sins" on Jesus.
[QUOTE=WordofGod;9779518]So Jesus basically had his throat slit so that we would all be saved? Then I don't have to do anything no do I? That's according to your point sir. And regardless, spiritual life is by no means "easy". Nothing is ever easy sir. Just because you "believe" in Jesus doesn't mean you're saved already. Believing is one thing, doing what Jesus taught is different. Belief is only the tip of the iceberg. Anyone can say that they believe in so and so. That doesn't mean that you are saved from sin already.
And regarding destroying human qualities, was there any compassion at all when Jesus was crucified sir? Because I don't see it in anyone today. They just feel happy that Jesus was crucified for their "sins". They glorify his suffering. So where's the compassion in that? Where's the "human" qualities in that? Since when does glorifying someone's suffering a "good" thing? This is what I say destroys the meaning of repentance, penitence. And again I ask, if the people during Jesus' time committed an offense by crucifying him, what makes the people of today "different"? How come the act that the people of the past did was an offense, and now that today's people who are glorifying Jesus' crucifixion are now free from that offense? Well?
Yes that is why they have a sacrificial system. It is a symbol that they have accepted Jesus Christ sacrifice on the cross when the time comes. So The animal sacrificial system was used as a method to forgive sins this is for them who does not know Christ yet to be able to accept christ sacrifice even before Christ sacrifice. So in effect they still have accepted Christ sacrifice. This is the very purpose of the animal sacrificial system for people who dont know christ during their time.
The name Jesus' or Emmanuel means "God with Us". Meaning God is with them during that time of the new testament. So Jesus in the Old testament was not known as Jesus but the Son of God the Son of God is not yet Jesus.
Therefore it is not necessary that they believe in the name of "Jesus" during their time. Since God provided them ways to be able to accept Jesus sacrifice before the event.
There are many names like Jesus but Jesus Christ has many names.
But it is possible to separate from your sinful actions.are sins separate entities from the sinners then to be destroyed by god? i thought they are just actions.

Well didn't I told you already only those who are saved are the ones who accepted Christ teachings and sacrifice and has repented? Of course those people who keeps on sinning will reap what they sow. Do you want to talk about the hellfire?
Its worthless to argue with you if i keep on repeating.

Christ himself branded John as Satan. So are you like John?
Did you agree with John or Christ. Not as John is a bad person but his statement.
We shouldn't because we need his sacrifice to save man kind. Unless if you think you are sinless then you don't need Christ sacrifice if you think you are up to God's standard of righteousness and perfect in the eyes of God, even though the bible says all have sinned and fall short in the glory of God.
You have your Opinions but I would conclude that your opinions are not based on the Bible but some radical idea somewhere but I respect your ideas.

Do you know the reason why U.S.A is keeping U.F.O files?
Hadlok cla kay ma down ang mga fundamentalist sa u.s! Magkagubot mga tao sa kalibutan
and of course mawala ang negosyo of religion.
I think that's not the reason.
In reality, satan has penetrated the political, religious, military areas of most nations. His goal of one world government is going to be established very soon. Just observe the influence of our society today. It is so obvious that the world has been inflicted with evil.
We are the crown of God's creation and we don't believe on such things as aliens. There are so called "UFOs" but are not unidentified flying objects anymore, rather objects of deception which the elite who runs the world used to deceive the masses. Be not deceived! Know the truths of Jesus in the bible.
