Who He Says He Is

  If Jesus is who he says he is, being the son of the living God, why did he have to die? Let me explain it to you this way? Imagine that you are sitting at a table? It is a plane wooden table, and on it, sit two beakons of water? One is the purest, clearest water that you can imagine! And the other is like it, only to this one, ink was added, and stirred until the consistencies of both looked the same?
  Now, in our little scenario, you are told that you must drink one of them completely, if not, you would be executed! You wouldn't have to think about it twice, and you would grab that clear beakon, and drink down every last drop!
  God is like that beacon of the purest water that there is, because God is pure! OK you say, what does that have to do with Jesus dieing? Just this, after the fall of man, God could not stand to look upon man, and the sins that he loved so much? What was needed was an advocate, one pure enough to atone for the sins of all, a bridge to God the Father? Jesus is that bridge!
  Only one who was pure could be sacrificed to a pure God, and so, the son of man, was born also the son of God! This was his purpose here on earth, it is the reason he was born! But wait you say, Jesus was a man, and all the history books agree on that. Are you saying that he had no sin? No, because he took on the sins of the world, all of them! And for one agonizing moment, God could not look upon him, and when he turned his face away, Jesus cried out, Father, why have you forsaken me? At that moment he was every form of vileness that you could imagine, and God his Father could not look upon him!
