Was It God's Predetermined Plan That Jesus Should Be Crucified? |
I say no for the following reason. Jesus taught the law of karma:
"All things whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye
even so unto them, for this is the law and prophets."
This means that whenver we make a right choice, we sow good karma,
which we will later reap, and whenever we make a bad choice, we sow
bad karma, which we will later reap.
Not one jot or tittle of this law will be destroyed until all be
fulfilled.
Therefore, G-D would never encourage anyone to make a wrong choice
based on ignorance, because He knows that this will cause suffering
that even He cannot circumvent entirely.
Indeed, the wrong choice of the Jews in rejecting and crucifying their
Messiah resulted in the Holocaust, wherein they had to suffer
horribly. Their genocide of other races also contributed here, but
not so much, because G-D had directly commanded some of that in order
that they might survive in a hostile environment. Also, if they had
accepted their Messiah, He could have mitigated some of the suffering
dictated by their karma.
Once the Jews rejected Jesus, then indeed G-D had to find an
alternative means of accomplishing His Will, and the idea of Jesus
dying on the cross became that alternative, but it had not been His
primary Will until the Jews rejected Jesus. G-D is infinitely
resourceful, but the suffering to humanity increases every time it
makes a wrong choice.
Now, what do you think?

If you remove "good"and "bad" from your dialouge you will be closer to the
answer.
