    By his remaining sinless up to his death as a man in obedience to his Father in heaven, the out pouring of his blood in death would satisfy God's own legal requirements for a sin atoning sacrifice, his perfect sinless life equaling Adam's perfect life that he forfeited when he sinned.

    Why is that "the "MOST" important reason for Jesus' visit to earth?"

    The whole point of Jesus coming to earth was to provide that ransom that would atone for Adamic sin, thereby open up the way for Adam's progeny [us] to have restored to them what had been lost in Eden, perfection and true righteousness with the opportunity to live unendingly, whether for a limited number in heaven as kings and priests with Christ, or for a countless number whose desire is to live right here in a "new earth of righteousness." [2 Peter 3:13]

    That is the wonderful hope held out to all humankind, provided they conform to God's requirements for everlasting life, and is an integral part of the good news of God's Kingdom, that Jesus gave such importance to when on earth. [Luke 4:43; 1 John 2:17]

    It's hard to choose just one reason.

    But I'd say to make God more real to us, more attainable.

    It was literally God becoming a man, right before our eyes, teaching us and healing us, and performing great miracles.

    It was Him reaching out to us like never before.

    Now all people can be close to Him, not just Jews.

    Now all people can be forgiven, not just the faithful, but even the criminals and prostitutes.

    Now we can see His nature is not like that of the Pharisees and leaders, but He is gentle and loving and forgiving.

    Then there's the part where He is the mediator between God and us. We have direct access to God through Him by simply praying in Jesus' name. It used to take priests hours to set up incense and complete rituals to enter the most holy place and have access to God.

    The veil was torn. No more are we separated from God. All are now equal. All are His children. All can be forgiven.

    And of course, the other most important reason, to be the atonement of all the sin of Mankind. All punishment earned by everyone was absorbed in His crucifixion. He gives us a free ticket to forgiveness and eternal life, and all we have to do is accept Him. I mention this last because everyone mentions it first. There is much more to it than that... as if it wasn't huge enough in and of itself.

    The fact of the matter, the most important reason God Jesus Christ visited earth, was to demonstrate how he suffered before the foundation of the world, for mankind sin, for his chosen, that is why it is written in God word the bible only John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. Also it is written in God word the bible only, John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. The most important reason is that his elect, or God chosen, would become saved. that is the most important reason.

    His birth might have been with reason but he didn't come from heaven or somewhere else. He was created in the earth in the womb of Mary. He must have raised in a pious way therefore he must have possessed by that kind of spirits and lived as his spirits directed him.

    Human beings are ruled by spirits. Spirits possess people according to the mental state of the human beings and keep them in the same state until they are rejected and replaced by another. This is an all time phenomena occurring in all humans. Human beings are always under the influence of spirits. Certain situations and circumstances causes the possession of certain type of spirits. Often thinking and talking about bad subjects or bad imaginations even for fun can take serious turns on one who think and talk. All spirits (good and bad) have the dominating character. They can take you to the extent of sacrifice or suicide.

    All of your activities, talks and even thoughts determine what kind of spirits you will have for your life. Only these spirits can create a good opportunity to get a job and all favorable things which you need to your life. Generally spirits determine the destiny of the human beings from their daily activities, talks and thoughts too. All knowledge, skills, emotions, feelings, interests and everything are spirits. Even thoughts are not your own. When you want to take a decision on a subject, one after another they think and you just listen and choose or reject the ideas which they transmit to your mind through your brain in the form of thoughts. A human being during his/her lifetime is living with many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. Human beings are just unprogrammed robots made of flesh, bones, tissues etc., by birth and toys of the spirits for their games.

    Jesus came to Earth as Godly and as human. God created him for this purpose of proving who he is. He lived a sinless life and proved that God was real and had great powers which God passed on to His son. This was the beginning of the Christian Church. If you would like to know the truth, read the book of John, and then the other three books which are the Gospels. They are Matthew, Mark and Luke. We can learn by closely observing these teachings.

    Because death came to all humans through the rebellion of our forefather Adam, and justice required the life of another perfect man, not more, not less, to provide the ransom that would buy back the possibility of everlasting life for us. No imperfect human could possibly provide that. (Psalm 49:6, 7) Someone would have to step down from the heavenly realm. Appropriately, the one to do this was the firstborn Son of God, Jesus Christ.

    He was here to die for our sins, not to be born for us or be resurrected for us, to DIE for us, sinless. He did that to perfection. It has always amazed me, even when younger that people never took notice of that. People celebrate his birth that is not even on Dec. 25th and then celebrate his resurrection but both have to have Santa and a bunny added to it, so false it isn't funny. But to overlook the actual date of his death when it's in the Bible for all to know it, that's just plain out sad. Buy the way, by the old Greek calendar, it was yesterday. There was a Memorial for his death in every Kingdom Hall around the world. jw.org

    According to The Holy Geeta, the scripture of Hindus, God manifest , from time to time,whenever and wherever there is decline of righteousness, for establishment of righteousness and for protection of the virtuous.I do not know whether this is acceptable to Christians. Hindus consider.Buddha as an incarnation of God because sanathana dharma was corrupted and degenerated by the practices followed by priestly class and others at the time of Buddha.
