Jesus didn't engineer or arrange himself being put to death. He ACCEPTED and took on the sins of men, including the sin of some men who would put him to death. That sin of rejecting and killing Jesus was an embodiment of how all reject God through sin.

But, according to your theological interpretation, Jesus arranged for his own death, and "no one" other than himself was really responsible.

Hey, that's the theological interpretation you go by? Fine. Believe what you want. I say it's an old fallacy embodied by things like The Gospel Of Judas.

My argument takes the words of the Gospel to make the point. Jesus was crucified and put to death by men, not by no one. Accepting and taking on the sins of men does not mean men did not sinfully reject and crucify him.

You keep saying the same thing and your need to accuse says volumes.

Jesus didn't engineer or arrange himself being put to death. He ACCEPTED and took on the sins of men, including the sin of some men who would put him to death.,

When did Jesus 'decide ' to accept?
