Why Did Jesus Have To Die
by Rhoy Pamparo on Apr.09, 2004, under Personal Thoughts
I was reading a Time Magazine (April 12) article regarding “Why Did Jesus Have To Die”. There are basically 2 theories that most theologists and Bible scholars came up with:
- Atonement for our Sin (Substitution Theory)
- An example of living (Examplary Theory)
This prompted me to do my own reading to find out “Why Jesus Have To Die” and here are some links that I found very useful and very concise.
