quote:
The son is as much God as is the father. The Father sacrificed his son and punished him instead of us. God punished God. God punished himself.
I'm not sure I understand. I thought Jesus' dying words were that God had forsaken, abondoned, or "let him down"... depending on your translation.
If he was punishing himself, to himself, for himself... then why would his son's(God's) last words be ones of abandonment and not a testament of some kind to his glory?
When it comes to the sacrafice, this part always confused me.
