There we go. Typical dispensational teaching.
A New Zealander woman tried to hang that on me. I replied to her I wasn't even born back then! How can I be a murderer of Jesus 2000 years later?
But what does the scripture say about that? Well let's take a look.
1 Thessalonians 2:14-15
King James Version
14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
Granted, neither of us placed a hand on Christ when he walked the earth. I agree that no one was able to "kill" Jesus, for he himself said no one could take his life from him, but that he gave it up freely (Jn 10). So that makes it difficult to accuse anyone of taking his life. We all have sinned, and a sacrifice was required for that sin. Our sin drove Jesus to the cross. All of our sins were placed on Christ on the cross, and he died for those sins, or there would be no forgiveness.
Romans 3: 22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
Praise God for his will, his Sovereignty and his love for us before we were even conceived.
His Spirit guides us, teaches us, helps communicate our needs and guides us daily.
You have a blessed rest of your day friend.

Thanks friend
Well said! Dispensationalism comes from the Rothchilds in their attempt to weaken the church and usher in the new Jewish State.
Yes sir I agree.
