Doesnt that justifies murder ? After all, the people murdered Jesus.I will be doing right if I decided to kill someone pure to be free myself of my sins ?
All of humanity is sold under sin as it were (we are all born sinners) and we fall short of the glory is God. There isn't any such animal as a pure person. No such person has ever existed or will ever exist. Jesus did all of the dying that was needed to effect salvation for all nations. Put your faith in Him for salvation.

I don't believe we have been sold into sin.

so with that logic, Jesus was also born with sin then.BUT why, OH why, should one condemn an innocent baby to be full of sin???
Well, his mother was a virgin, and that makes all the difference. 😆
A virgin birth is possible, but I can't explain how, the forum would not allow it.

Agreed, almost totally. But then my Heaven and the purpose of life are not what you describe, although I believe that you describe the mainstream-Christian's view. If heaven is the place you describe, then I totally agree.
I am criticizing the mainstream Christianity's version of Heaven, so yes you'd agree to my assertion.
However, keep in mind, the mainstream version of Christianity's Heaven is heavily supported by the Bible....

The Bible states that without the shedding of blood (i.e. giving up of one life for another life) there is no remission of sins. Sin cannot just be forgiven because the penalty for sin is death. So in order for person A to be forgiven of his/her sins a life must be given up in place of person A's life. Jesus is Person B (as it were) giving up His life to pay for person A's sins, so that person A can then be forgiven, released, or redeemed from the consequence of sin which is death.
So it's official: God wants Blood 😈
That shows what a violent being God is...

Jesus is God and God is the only One Who is sinless.
How can someone who demands bloodshed be sinless? 🤨

So by a sin(murdering someone pure, like Jesus) I can be redeemed of my sins ?

We were born into sin? Oh you mean when Eve ate the apple ? 🙄
How mythological...
