I'm God-curious, and this is one of the parts of the Christian faith that I honestly don't understand. I am asking this not in an attempt to put anything down, and I ask with the utmost respect, but could someone explain how or rather why God sent Jesus down to us to be tortured by us.
How did this atone for our sins? I really don't understand. It looks like we were unpleasant sinners, God came down to try and show us the way, and we tortured and murdered him. Understandably, he rose again, and left us. Would someone mind explaining this to me?
