If Jesus Christ died for our sins....?

Very good question. People make themselves look simpletons by even trying to answer it, luckily they have pseudo names. In the life of Jesus, people got saved by believing in His water baptism by John the Baptist.

This is where all of us must be born again, and not the Cross. Jesus gave an example of this when He taught Israels teacher who came to Him at the dead of night out of fear of the Jews. He asked Jesus how he could be born again, for he did not have a clue.

Jesus then taught him about the gospel of the water and the Spirit - John 3:5 - the gospel that saves people from all sin. He taught him that the water means His baptism by John the Baptist where He took up all our sins when they were put on Him by the laying on of hands just before John baptized Him - Matthew 3:13-17. Just like what happened in the OT when the High Priest put all of Israels sin onto a live animal by laying his hands on its head - Leviticus 16.

This is where we must be saved, right here by the Jordan River - 1 Peter 3:21. Jesus dying on the Cross was to pay for our sins after taking them up in this most proper way. So when looking at John 3:5 the water and the Spirit we can see that the water means Jesus baptism by John the Baptist where He took away all the sins of the world - John 1:29, and the Spirit means, God Himself, for God is Spirit.

Here are free Christian Books that preach this wonderful and powerful gospel. http://www.nlmusa.com.

Salvation has always involved faith in God's goodness. Those who followed God before Christ came did so by faith. ("By faith Abel...Enoch...Noah...Abraham...Sarah...... Hebr chapter 11) The rules for ancient Israel were partly to keep order in their society, and partly to teach them that however hard they tried, they could not be sinless.

It pointed them to the coming sacrifice, the sinless one who would both fulfill the law and embody that salvation in a physical manner on the cross (Jesus is the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" Rev 13:8). When Christ came, he descended into Hades to free those who waited there in faith from earlier times. (Eph 4:8-10) Forgive me.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
