My Savior didn't leave glory to come to earth to make life on earth more like life in heaven, but
to help ungodly sinners like me. Jesus revealed the truth to us which was that our heavenly Father was not sitting in heaven ready to thrust lightening bolting down from heaven or hold the leaver to the gates of hell to send us there. on the contrary God loves us so much that he sent his only begotten son down from heaven to suffer in our place. However the deceiver of mankind tries to make us believe that God does not love us and wants to damn because of their sins. But nothing could be further from the truth. God loves sinners! Jesus died to save sinners like you and I. God does hate sin but not the sinner and the reason for that is God is against sin because it hinders our relationship with him and destroys us, but He is not against sinners.
If God could not or would not help a sinner, then He would never help any human. The Bible tells the opposite story. We have all missed the mark of perfection so we all need a Savior. And we all have a Savior if we will but receive Him. The sacrifice of Jesus was sufficient to deal with all sin. You have been forgiven. Accept that forgiveness. Turn away from going your own way and walk with God.
Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,
so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him (Hebrews 9:26-28).
