Read the Hebrew Scriptures(not the ones in the King James Bible;those are a total mistranslation of our Torah).The messiah will be human, he will rule at a time of peace(do you see peace on earth? I sure don’t), he will rebuild the Temple,and the Jews will come to complete Torah observance.There are other things as well,and there is no mention of a “second coming”.The idea that a mangod was born to a virgin is pagan in origin.The idea that G-d can be 3 in 1 is pagan in origin.This is one reason I left Christianity.I cannot believe that G-d came to earth in human form,only to die on a cross.How can He die?It makes no sense!

How can He die?

I told you how. The issue is sin. We cannot co-habitate with a totally Holy God; it is impossible.

The only way is to have sin removed...washed clean...not just once but forever.

The only one who can provide a sacrifice is God...he is the only one who can bear the PUNISHMENT for the depth of our sin.

The messiah will be human,

Yes, He was human which is why He had to be born of a woman...there's no other way. But it was an immaculate conception since He is also God.

he will rule at a time of peace

This is impossible because men are sinful. There will never be a time of peace on this sin-riddled Earth. Only in Heaven will there be peace for eternity. Join the way of truth and eternal true LIFE.
