Your God demands human sacrifice for minor thought crimes?

Comment: Your God demands human sacrifice for minor thought crimes? Sounds like a jerk.

Response: Thanks for your comment ... God is infinitely holy and we are not. Just the mere sight of Him would be too much for any person to bear. All sin, therefore, justly deserves death so it is not about being a "jerk" but about pure holy justice. Even we need human justice to live on earth... it would be utter chaos without it... Likewise God's standard is perfect and he will bring about justice for every transgression... None of us will be able to stand before such justice on our own.. But God being a God of love ... in the greatest expression of it, came to earth Himself to be a servant who fully absorbed the penalty of sin on behalf of all those who turn in faith to Him.. Jesus came to offer pardon in advance to all who ally themselves with him...And since he himself bore the penalty it could not be more opposite of being a jerk.

And we should take note that sin cannot be forgiven just by the wave of a hand. Debts against us aren't just forgiven in thin air either. Example ... If a friend came to your house and broken your Ming vase, someone has to pay for the vase. Either he pays for it or you absorb the cost of its loss. Likewise God is morally perfect so justice will be carried out for all transgressions. Someone has to pay for them.. Either you pay for them of Christ pays for you. They do not merely dissipate in the air like steam
