Crime made Christ's death a necessity. A simple choice in lies and deceit, a lapse in moral character, a choice to commit a simple criminal act against the Creator, paved the way for the cross. Jesus knew from before the beginning of creation that his death would atone for the lies, deceitfulness, and sinful choices of mankind. He knew, and he still made a way for us to him. This book discusses the personal element of crime in relation to Christian religious principles that made the cross necessary, while emphasizing the need for personal responsibility in light of criminological behavior.
