Who bore the burden for Jesus ?
Dear Christians ,
A Christian friend asked me;
' Does anybody know of another person than Jesus who is said to have claimed
to be sinless (no "burdened soul") himself and to atone for men's sins (to "bear
another's burden")?'
----------
Children are sinless unless you believe children who don't survive go
straight to Hell for not declaring Jesus as their savior.
Since children are sinless, then if we look into the Gospel of Matthew, all
the children of Bethlehem bore the burden of Jesus, they died in the place of
Jesus.
In Matthew 2:8 we see the jealous king Herod send out people to hunt down and
locate Jesus.
"Then he sent them to Bethlehem with these instructions: "Go and make a
careful search.."
In Matthew 2:13, a angel warned Jesus and his family that Herod was trying to
find and kill Jesus;
"An angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph and said, "Herod will
be looking for the child in order to kill him"
In Matthew 2:14, Jesus and his family hide in a different country to avoid
being killed, now King Herod is still searching for Jesus and can not find Jesus
so King Herod orders every boy in Bethlehem killed in a attempt to kill Jesus.
"He gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its neighborhood who
were two years old and younger-this was done in accordance with what he had
learned from the visitors about the time when the star had appeared."
Matthew 2:16
King Herod in the Bible did not go after Jesus in Egypt (which could easily
have been done), because he assumed Jesus was still in Bethlehem, so King Herod
murdered all the innocent boys in Bethlehem in hopes to also kill Jesus while
Jesus safely stayed in Egypt.
Therefore there were Many who were sinless and bore the burden of others.
Jesus was saved with the blood of the children of Bethlehem according to the
Bible. They died so that Jesus could have life according to the Bible.
If Jesus's was meant to be a blood sacrifice as the modern Christians claim,
than he would not have hid when the Jews were trying to kill him.
According to the Old Testament, blood sacrifices must be the age of [[one
year old]] (Exodus 12:5), therefore we clearly see that Jesus's intention was
not to be a sacrifice becuase he was not captured by the Jews until he was over
thirty years old (Luke 3:23).
If Jesus had allowed himself to be captured as an infant, than he would have
been qualified as a sacrifice according to the Bible and would have saved the
other children of Bethleham, Jesus clarified that his purpose was not to be a
Sacrifice by avoiding death at the age of one.
Actions speak louder than words.
Moses who was a mere Prophet saved all the children of Israel when Pharoh was
oppressing them, why than would Jesus whom Christians claim is a god, abandon
the children of Israel when he was the direct cause of the search ?
This shows that Jesus was sent to earth to remind the Jews of the teachings of God and the Day of Judgement, shows that Jesus was no more nor no less powerful or knowing than other Prophets.
