Subject: Did Jesus have to die?

Bible Note: I just this moment came back from seeing the movie with my wife and was compelled to post another thought to this thread.

I kept thinking about your question, "Why did Jesus have to die such a horrible death?" Couldn't God have thought of some other way. I thought God could have sent Him to another time peiod of our planet's history, one that would have executed him far more painless, like this century in an electric chair or hanging.

But no, our Lord died THE MOST HORRIBLE form of execution ever devised on this planet, one that took hours, sometimes days for men to die on a cross. Yes, I'm convinced that God literally had to send His Son to die for us...that was THE ONLY way we (you and I) could possibly meet God some day in Heaven.

I do agree with you. It's a great movie and is very good powerful testimony from Mr. Gibson to those in the world that don't believe. We can only hope that they will study God's Word and any other historical document needed to conclusively seal this knowledge that God does want all mankind in Heaven. God bless and I appreciate your encouraging words to this Forum.
