Re: [TruthTalk] The Humanity of Jesus

DAVEH:  No.  But I think you must have missed the beginning of my questions to Terry.  I started with the premise of what would have happened IF A&E had not transgressed in the first place.  I assume you believe there would have been people who had sinned as well as those who had not sinned.  My curiosity is about what you folks think would have been the pertinence of Jesus coming to the earth to those who had not sinned.

DAVEH:  I fully agree.  However, I was trying to explore a bit further what you believe about how Jesus' sacrifice is pertinent to anybody who had never sinned. Terry Clifton wrote: Boy!  I hate it when people force me to think on my time off.  It's hard enough to do it on the job. There are those who do not sin and still die.  They are called fetuses by those who murder them, unborn children by those who would rather they live.  There is no way that they can sin in thought or deed, yet they die, so sin brought death to all. I believe that had I been the only sinner on earth, Jesus loved me enough to die for me.  God's love does not appear to be based on numbers.  One fact, one opinion.  You would have very little trouble arguing against the opinion.  The fact is self evident.
