Why did God send His son Jesus into this world? Was it not that He should die for the sins of the world?

Seriously, what kind of a father would do that? And why didn't the Father die for the sins of the world? What kind of an example is that to imitate?

The Jewish God never taught such a thing! No wonder, the Jews would not hear any of it.

“The Jewish God never taught such a thing!”

Isaiah 53 is a prophecy of such a thing. John the Baptist in pointing out Jesus called him “The lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world”.

“Seriously, what kind of a father would do that?”

Jesus said it was his Father,

Matt 26:39,“Father, if it’s possible, let this cup {of suffering} be taken away from me. But let your will be done rather than mine.”

42, “Father, if this cup cannot be taken away unless I drink it, let your will be done.”

John 18:11, “Jesus told Peter, “Put your sword away. Shouldn’t I drink the cup {of suffering} that my Father has given me?”
