Synopsis

What if the critics are asking the wrong question?

For centuries, Christians have proclaimed that Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world. Yet many people today find the cross confusing, unnecessary, or even offensive.

Why couldn't God simply forgive?

Why did Jesus have to die?

Is the crucifixion an act of divine love-or cosmic child abuse?

And why does Christianity insist that the resurrection changes everything?

In Why Jesus Had to Die, the author takes readers on a compelling journey through morality, justice, sacrifice, the cross, and the resurrection to answer one of the most important questions ever asked.

Drawing on Scripture, history, logic, and apologetics, this book tackles the toughest objections raised by atheists, skeptics, and followers of other faiths, including:

- Is the God of the Old Testament cruel?
- Why does the Bible require blood sacrifice?
- Why couldn't God simply forgive sin?
- Did Christianity borrow its ideas from pagan myths?
- Did Jesus really die on the cross?
- Why doesn't God save everyone?

Whether you are a believer seeking deeper understanding, a skeptic searching for answers, or someone simply curious about Christianity's central claim, this book will challenge you to examine the evidence and consider the question that stands at the center of history:

Why did Jesus have to die?
