Bible Question: Why did Jesus have to sacrifice himself to himself to keep him from sending us to hell? |
Bible Answer: The bible teaches that to take away sins, someone innocent must die to take away sin of the guilty. Christ is the only one that is truly innocent. He never committed any sin. An eternal God can take away an eternal number of sins of men. |
