How does the death of Jesus bring justice?
I don't really understand the history behind it. Why would he die for our sins?
I've heard it is because humanity was building distance to God through sin and brought death. Jesus died, so that these sins can be forgiven and it's basically the ultimative way of showing love. Jesus was sinless yet died so our sins can be forgiven, but how is one connected with the other? Why would God forgive our sins by someone sinless dying? Instead of someone really sinful or maybe through apologizing directly to God.
And also sinning didn't stop after his dead so does someone else need to die, too?
At the end of the day, we still need to make sure not to sin, because well not all of our sins will be forgiven. So did Jesus die for nothing? If he died for all of our sins, why should we still need to care about them?
And if he didn't die for all of our sins, why did he die like that..?
Also how does his death bring forgiveness and why? One person died, but how is that equal to billions of ppl sinning every day without stop?
Isn't this the same principle of murdering someone every day for 10 years but shortly before your death you help a homeless person and everything else is forgiven?
And why did he have to die the way that he did?
I am genuinely trying to understand. My parents taught me that to truly understand the world, I need to understand the people, their morals and their beliefs. I've started with buddhism and islam, now I am trying to understand Christianity.
