Verbatim response to Mike's comment on 9/12/2011, 10:13am... ("how can a criminal steal and GOD almighty will sacrifice is only son for the criminal.)
Although the criminal knows death is the punishment, he doesnot want to die. God the just merciful, loving and just judge knows, and out of his love for the criminal, he sacrifices his son, to save the criminal's life provided the criminal belives in God' son, hence John 3:17. GOD'S LOVE IS NO WHERE ALLUDED TO THAN IN John 3:16 .
Once the criminal finds the deal too good to resist, HE HAS NO TIME TO UNDERSTAND, BUT TAKES THE DEAL STARIGHT AWAY, BEFORE THE CRAZE JUDGE CHANGES HIS MIND, AND GETS ANOTHER CHANCE TO LIVE. Mike if you were the criminal would you drop such a deal questioning God's ways and wisdom? By the way have you embraced God's love through Christ?
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The criminal simply believes in the son of God as the propitiation for his crime- 1 John 2:2, confess the crime (or loads the crime on Christ to pay the penality), repents (deliberate decision not to commit the crime again) and gets baptised (symbol of renewal unto salvation Mark 16:16) and receives the Spirit of God ( Acts 2:38) to enable him to steal no more, and live an abundant life. The criminal is obliged to find the book ( bible) about the God of love and his son the epitome of the same, and reads it daily to develop the relationship with that God through his son.
The criminal finds a congregation (Church) of forgiven criminals ( saved, born again or believers) and fellowships, as he reaches out to others to embrace the pardon and live again.
Mike it is not easy to understand (as the song goes, " it wasnot easy, but was worthwhile) once you are not the criminal whose life lies at the noose of the hungman's mercy after the "verdit by the gavel" went, "guilty condemend to crucify!!!!!!!", otherwise, to a criminal the deal is too good to querry God's wisdom.
Another part of the question another time once by the grace of God. We love you Mike and pray for you. (SELW)
