Re: Why did Jesus have to die?

The only think that "makes up" for their sin is the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

Again, pardoning sin without payment may be merciful, but it is not moral and just. God is perfectly merciful while at the same time being perfectly moral and just which is why sin cannot go unpunished.

Do you not see the contradiction here? Sins must be punished because thats the moral and just thing to do. Oh wait just kidding we crucified some innocent guy so sins dont have to be punished anymore...
How could a man's sacrafice possibly shake the foundations of morality.
Also you seem to be putting limitations on God's power in that he cannot do anything unjust or sinful. Well if he is going around changing morality so child rapists can get into heaven thats pretty unjust if you ask me.
I contend that if an action was a sin before jesus's sacrafice that same action must be a sin after, and they morally require the same punishment.
