Why God Visited the World in the Flesh

It was necessary to have someone pay for the original sin of mankind as a kind of ransom- it could have been no one else than the Son. To miss that as the reason for God to become man in-the-flesh is to misunderstand the main point of the incarnation. God has a perfect moral economy and cannot tolerate sin deficits. Only the Son was qualified to relieve those of faith from their debt of original and subsequent sin. God in effect had a trump card to play allowing Himself as One of the Trinity to make the payment only God could pay. Humanity would comparatively never have been capable of enough good behavior or merit to pay a fraction of its massive deficit.

As the Apostle John said; ‘For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.’

Mankind given free will can and does sin. For some reason God chose to save those of mankind with faith in Jesus Christ rather than let them all go to hell following their own devices.
