Ok, umm..... Jesus had long hair cause it was part of the Nazarene vow. Welp, that's why people believe he had long hair.
Right, he had long hair. The point of mine was just that if we are to take the bible that seriously, and accept all parts of the bible as truth, then we should also recognize that the bible says that Jesus should be ashamed of himself.
And, God sent His Son to die for our sins. Thus, "He gave His Only Begotten Son.." And, dying for our sins meaning paying for them....all the ones we have done and will do.
So, if God sent his son to die for our sins, how are our sings being "paid"? What's the difference between this and if you owed me $20 and I lent you $20 to pay me back? Because we sin 'against' God and need to 'pay' for our sins, but who or how are we 'paying'?
I'm not very good at this debating thing. I only came here to suggest something. I don't think I am educated enough in my belief to debate with other people who are probably far more educated in their own beliefs than I am in my own, so I will leave now. I'm probably just wasting your time.
As I said, you are not a waste of time by any means. I appreciate you including yourself in discussion and I hope you find yourself becoming a stronger individual because of it.
