Welcome to the forum friend.
It wasn't that Jesus death was so horrible that gives forgiveness of sin--
OK then why is such a fuss made over the suffering as if the pain of suffering was somewhow the payment for sin?
its that Jesus didnt sin-
There is very little record of the life of christ so such a statement is not backed by evidence to show whether or not sin was in his life or not.
his death and blood paid for the sin debt of anyone that comes to him for forgiveness
Yes but what is the morality of a god that requires sacrifice in order to make good on the debt of sin? Also why is the sacrifice necessary if all that is rquired is belief in him.The story could just end with him rising into the clouds after gathering all his followers together and telling them straight out that you only get to follow by believing in him?
