I believe this happens right after all the sins of the world were put on Jesus. Because sin is what deters us from a personal relationship with God
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, kindly list me every single sin. You see god did say there's no blame on someone who sins out of ignorance/lack of knowing it's a sin. As such i question these highly deranged killers, (like those who were told by god to kill people). They are sinning without the knowledge that they're sinning, thus they are blameless. But please, just so i have it for future reference list me here every single sin.
"Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them. " (Romans 2:14-15)
I was told by a devout christian the only thing we must obey is to: "love your neighbour like you would love yourself". Well.... i love my neighbour dearly, and as much as i would love myself- thus i am sinless and have no sins to smudge off onto jesus. However of course i understand that must be wrong or there'd be no problem with murderers etc.. So, once again, kindly list me all the sins.
Do you really "agape" love your neighbor?

Jesus could save himself from being crucified
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's evidence of that?
"And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death--
even death on a cross!" (Phillipians 2:8)
He obeyed death, he could have saved himself, instead he fulfilled what he was sent to do.
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
His own righteousness rescued him from death, for no blame was found in Him.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evidence?
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23)
The wages of sin is death in hell.
"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin." (Hebrews 4:15)
He was without sin, perfect and righteous.
"For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him." (Romans 6:9)
So He was raised from the dead.
"We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." (Romans 6:4)
Jesus was a sin offering:
"For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering" (Romans 8:3)

Anyways Satan can definitely disguise himself, but he cannot do Good he can only do Evil, if he heals someone it is only temporary, a disguise.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do you know? Met the guy?
"And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." (2 Corinthians 11:14)
"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." (John 8:44)
I haven't met him.

Also during Jesus' ministry people did say he was a demon or a devil. But Jesus than pointed out: Would the head of a household cast out his own members?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well there's nothing to say jesus wasn't lying or he was kicking out demons, (his buddies), to impress people. Does kicking a demon out of a house really harm it in any way?
I believe the particular scripture was referring to a demon-possessed person, so yes it does harm the kingdom of the devil if a demon is cast out of a person, a demon has a reason to live there, it wants to lead that person to destruction and fills that person with lies, helping the kingdom of evil.

others asked for a miraculous sign from heaven to see if he was from God
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They asked to see a miraculous sign from heaven- jesus blagged his way out of doing it. Doesn't that say it all?
God's kingdom is based on faith. If you read on Jesus replies to their wanting a miraculous sign with the sign of Jonah. (Luke 11:29)
However, Jesus performed many miraculous signs, He healed the sick, cast out demons, raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, healed the mute and the dumb, healed those with leprosy, healed a man who could not walk, and other signs.
Also read Luke 16:19-31 The story of the Rich Man and Lazarus.
Hebrews also says: 'For to which of the angels did god ever say, "You are my son; today i have become your father."
So now tell me..... is jesus god, or is jesus an angel? I also wonder why you didn't include hebrews 1:9
Let us look at the entire chapter to look at it in perspective, you might be missing the point. I believe the writer is making a point saying that Jesus is much greater than the angels.
"1In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. 3The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
5For to which of the angels did God ever say,
"You are my Son;
today I have become your Father " ? Or again,
"I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son" ? 6And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
"Let all God's angels worship him."7In speaking of the angels he says,
"He makes his angels winds,
his servants flames of fire." 8But about the Son he says,
"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the oil of joy." 10He also says,
"In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
11They will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.
12You will roll them up like a robe;
like a garment they will be changed.
But you remain the same,
and your years will never end." 13To which of the angels did God ever say,
"Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet" ? 14Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? "(Hebrews 1)
There are two rhetorical questions here (is that what they are called?) The answer to them is none, God neve told one of his angels to sit at His right hand, that is the point the writer is trying to make, that Jesus is above the angels, not of them.
'Jesus has been found worthy of greater honour than moses' <----- again showing jesus was not god.
How does this show Jesus isn't God?
4:14 says jesus was tempted in every way-yet was without sin. Then several sentences later in 5:1 says he himself is subject to weakness. This is why he has to offer sacrifices for his own SINS, as well as for the people...
Jesus WAS without sin. Later in 5:1 he is talking about the priests of Israel who had to offer sacrifices for their own sins, however Jesus has become our high priest, but the fact that Israel's priest had sin doesn't mean Jesus did.
Thought he was sinless? The fact is you pick and choose whatever you want, ignore the contradictions that are punching you in the face and decide what specific sentences YOU want to be true.
I always try (i'm not perfect) to put it in context like the aforementioned chapter of Hebrews, when you look at it in context it makes a lot more sense.
'No-one takes this honour upon himself; he must be called by god, just as aaron was. So christ also did not take upon himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But god said to him..
What else does god say in hebrews? "You are my son; today i have become your father.. You are a priest for ever
Exactly the second matches the first.
Oh and what's this i've found........? Now, we are led to believe that jesus fully intended to sacrifice himself yeah? ok....
hebrews 5:7 'During the days of jesus life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death.
Of course God could save him from death. He offered petition to God (who could save him from death). I believe this is a fact of God.
'one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life.'
Does jesus fit this description?
Yes, He overcame death.
'Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; but because jesus lives for ever he has a permanent priesthood.'
Guess so..... Jesus is a permanent priest because he doesn't die like the rest (?) did.
He became this priest for us after he died on the cross.
