[quote:Anonymous Coward 23435015:MV8xOTk3MzI4XzMzNTU4OTcyX0MxMjI4Rjg5] [quote:Jam 24201218:MV8xOTk3MzI4XzMzNTU1OTEzXzEyMTVDMDQ0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 2493446:MV8xOTk3MzI4XzMzNTU1ODI0X0E2OUU2QzEz] The jewish people never expected their Messiah to become God and never would have made him into a god to be worshipped after his death. They were monotheists. The dead man becoming a god idea was all from Rome. [/quote] Silly. Uninformed. And ignorant. The Romans hated the Christians and were trying to eliminate them. They had no reason to help create Christianity or Jesus' persona. The words of Jesus are preserved in the record of the book of Matthew as he says "before Abraham was I Am" meaning he was claiming to be God & Creator. The books of John & Paul also make it clear Jesus was God manifest in the flesh. The entire Jewish sacrificial system was about Jesus the lamb who takes away the sins of the world. [/quote] If Jesus had to die to take away the sins of the world, why is the world still filled with sin? [/quote]
