So, you're saying that God is so vengeful that he demands the human sacrifice of his only begotten son before he will forgive anyone of sin?
No, God condemned blood sacrifice in the Old Testament. How many times do I have to explain this before you get it?
You're saying that God doesn't have a taste for blood? And that this is actually in the Old Testament? Are you kidding me?
No, I'm serious. "Whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a man, and whoever offers a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck." Isaiah 66:3
But aren't you the lamb of God? What's this all about if it's not to appease the wrath of a vengeful God with your blood?
Look, I don't have enough time to explain it right now, what with dying and all. Trust me on this one, okay? My blood is not your magic ticket to heaven.
