The whole point of Jesus is that he’s a blood sacrifice to redeem people’s sins. He’s an infinitely good being, so his sacrifice has infinite value. The idea is that anyone who accepts Jesus into their heart can sacrifice him atemporally and get their sins redeemed.

Netanyahu seems to be attempting a genocide of the Jewish people by forcing them all to worship Jesus, by committing crimes in their name of a magnitude that perhaps no earthly ritual can repent.

    ‘Murder’ doesn’t mean ‘kill’. Self defense isn’t murder, accidentally causing sometimes death isn’t murder, obeying God’s will isn’t murder. If God determines morality, there is nothing that can’t be made moral by defining it as his will.

      Elohim doesn’t want the modern Palestinians dead. How many Jewish prophets have you seen in the last 500 years? None, because Elohim doesn’t want any deaths right now.

        How do you know what he wants any better than the people he actually tells to do things? He may be getting exactly as many deaths as he wants, or not enough, or to many… Why do you think you, out of all people, would be the one who knows God’s mind?

          Because the people committing genocide don’t have any prophets telling them to do it.

            Why would they need a prophet to tell them? And if they did, how do you know they don’t have them? Do you think good needs to make a prophecy evident to you specifically for some reason?

              Prophets deliver messages from Elohim. And if they had one, they’d be bragging about it. Why let people believe Elohim doesn’t want the genocide?

                What difference does it make to you? God doesn’t have to run his plans through you somehow. They brag if he wants them to brag, if he wants people to believe he condones it, he’ll do it one way, if he doesn’t he’ll do it a different way. Why are you so arrogant as to think it has to make sense to you in order to be one way vs another?
