My friend
I understand what you are saying, and i respect it. However I still am baffled by your conception of love in regards to God. One must not forget that we are not the friends of God nor are we His favorite buddies, but rather His servants, His slaves. Once again i stress the importance of two important concepts: 1.) God is all powerful and can do anything he wants 2.) The concept of love with regards to a human and God relation. We must not place our human existence at such a high level that it is necessary for God to sacrafice His son because He loves us. As i believe all religious texts comment on how God is one and is in need of nothing else. He is supreme and does not depend on anything and nothing depends on him. He does not need our praise. True he does want us to care and have faith in Him, but God is God, we are just mere creations. Even the powerful concept of love which is dear to us human beings, one must remember it is different to God. He does want us to love Him, and if we have faith and fear Him He will love us, but never should be place our human existence to such a level that it requires the Grace of God to be crowned in thrown, mocked at and crucified. That is blasphemy.
May peace be upon you.
