The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ — Did He Take All the Sins of the World?

Swami Kriyananda
September 29, 2008

Did Jesus take all the sins of the world? This is the intriguing question that Swami Kriyananda explores in this talk. Kriyananda emphasizes the need for individuals to examine religious statements with discernment and use both faith and science in their analyses.

Kriyananda states that Jesus eased karmic consequences through grace but did not take on all of the karma for the entire world, for the material reason that a finite cause cannot have an infinite effect. The world we live in is not without sin. Individual suffering, personal responsibility, and accountability exist and remain alongside divine grace for individual advancement and spiritual purification.
