He actually sacrificed himself which is different than what we would call suicide. i.e. Inside a bank there's a hostage situation. The robbers are getting panicked and they bring up there gun to shoot at a pregnant woman. A man nearby jumps in front of her and takes the bullet himself and just then the police come in and shoot the robbers. Yes, the man knowingly jumped in front of a bullet he knew would probably kill him but he did it to safe a life. This is sacrifice, not suicide. The same applies to Jesus accept he sacrificed himself for everybody.

I can't believe you would think Jesus did that as suicide. Liberals are good for two things: turning you back to the Republican party and providing a source for jokes. |
