The Roman Catholic Church, in its present manifestation, started in the 4th Century, not the 1st Century. I think there needs to be more unity amongst Christians but I do not believe the Roman Church is 2000 years old. The Church is 2000 years old but certainly not the hierarchy that is found in Rome.

@12bulkhead Lots of reasons. Christ was God, and men rebel against him. The soldiers were doing so because their sinful hearts desperately wanted to. The soldiers were also obeying their authorities. The authorities were also sinful and desperately wanted to kill him. But a very different reason is that God intended for good what men intended for evil; the saving of many lives. Christ was tortured, separated from the Father, and died because that is exactly what mankind deserved for his sin.

@demonliberal "uncomfortably like penal substitution"? What about it makes you uncomfortable? It may not be a full expression of Christ's sacrifice, but it cannot be denied without heresy. Scripture uses synonymous language.
-
@morrij01 That's quite a Protestant atonement theology you've got there. "Imputing the sinless life of Christ" sounds uncomfortably like penal substitution.Righteousness "credited to your account" sounds unhappily like the monetary metaphors so common in the early Reformed tradition. There are, of course, other (and perhaps less problematic) models of Christian atonement available!
And - out of curiosity - do you beieve that the soldiers who crucified Christ had free will?
-
@12bulkhead The reason was divine really, although these soldiers were unaware of it, they were part of God's plan to redeem some. The only way that men's sins can be forgiven is if Jesus took the punishement in their place and by this also imputing the sinless life of Christ to their account. By recognizing your sinfullness before God and that you can't be forgiven by any amount of works, believe that God ressurected Jesus from death, His righteousness can be can be credited to your account.

To be honest, I don't see any reason why those guys tortured and killed Jesus. i apologise if I may have used incorrect terminology.

no contradiction--try READING--to make it quick for u....catholic means "universal".....lets STOP the bashing! Saw a man who said he was an athestist because of the way christians treated each other~in other words, few were living up to the words of JESUS,.so TRUE! May Christs love be with you, whoever you are. Really-READ-you got the Bible you have now from St. Jerome's translation-NOT king James!! READ-READ-you'll learn something!! We don't make up the scriptures, we live by the BIBLE!

@shira101wv Bible believing and "catholic" is quite a contradiction...

Let's stop usuing U tube to BASH other people, unless that makes u happy....i prefer to care about people and help anyone in need, as our Lord instructed! I see this sort of thing over & over....go get ALL your FACTS straight....then decide where God wants you~listen to his VOICE! Use your BRAIN to decide if you are in the church that has withstood, even with her faults, the test of time~2,000 years.
We should all strive for prefection, not tearing one another down. ღ♱ღ Enjoy the songs!
