WHY WAS JESUS CRUCIFIED?


If you ask the Jews why did they crucify Jesus, they will say that Jesus was a false prophet. They see Jesus as a counterfeit of God.
If you ask the Christians why Jesus was crucified, they will say to pay for our sins.
But if you ask Jesus why He was crucified, He will say it was a mistake.
When Adam and Eve lost eternal life they have never recovered what they have lost. They, the Gentiles, see Jesus’ death, a mistake, as a “ransom” for the sins of Adam and Eve. How can we make an intelligent decision based on a mistake“Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." And they divided His garments and cast lots.“ Luke 23:34.
How could a mistake turn into “Jesus died to pay for our sins”? I do not know. I do not understand. I have no idea how our biblical scholars can come up with that kind of blunder. I can’t manipulate words like the biblical scholars can because my mother doesn’t speak English well.
“Now Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples aside on the road and said to them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, "and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And on the third day He will rise again." Matthew 20:17-19. Who are the Gentiles? They are non-Jewish people.
Jesus was crucified and died because the Jews found Him guilty of blasphemy. They saw Him as a counterfeit God.
Jesus came to serve us, to free us from the bondage of sin, and not to pay for our sin. Matthew 20:28. When judgment day comes we will get plenty of opportunity to defend ourselves, and to pay for our sin. We will pay for our sin when the time comes. God gives us plenty of time to repent of our sin. 
How can we say that Jesus had died to pay for our sin, but then on judgment day we will have to pay again? “And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is [the Book] of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” We will be judged by our works. Revelation 20:12.
Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. "Many will say to Me on that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' Matthew 7:21-23. Readers, are we doing the will of Jesus’ Father? And do only the will of Jesus’ Father, and no other. 
That’s the only way that we can make a ransom for the sins of Adam and Eve. Do the will of Jesus' Father which Adam and Eve ignored. We are nearing the end of time. Jesus is coming soon.
I am getting old. And you are getting behind. Be the first. "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. "Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all [who are] in the house. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:13-16.
