Not hating on your church or anything, but isn’t his death the whole point? Like if he didn’t die in that manner and then theoretically come back, he’d just be some guy. There’d be no need for the religion. I feel like his death makes the whole thing come full circle. It’s not just about being good, it’s about then being willing to sacrifice for the good of everyone.
I kinda of knew with the whole cross thing. I think the Mormons are pretty unique amongst Christians for this point of view. Also the denial of the triunion and the whole God coming down in a physical form to fuck his daughter to make Christ.

I think the point was living by his teachings and remembering his sacrifice, but without glorifying or worshiping the object of his torture and death.
Yeah, that makes sense. Do you mind me asking what kind of church you went to? Was it nondenominational or did it have a denomination?
I grew up Mormon.
