In the case of the question asked, “Why did God send Jesus to die for our sins which only continue to multiply when he could have removed sin once and for all?"The solution did not make the problem go away, the problem of sin continued to multiply. Therefore the solution was a failure. Jesus’s sacrifice was not necessary and was done in vain.I probably have not portrayed this correctly since you just repeat what you said before. You say that Jesus's death would have removed all sin once and for all, but sin is still around and ever multiplying. That is true if you are referring to a worldwide problem. Sin is obviously in the world and many people are taking part of it.
I said Jesus death did not remove sin which only continued to multiply.
What I am saying is that Jesus's death was not a cure all, for all, whether they believe or not. It was not a "I just saved all of you, if you wanted it or not" kind of thing. It provided an opportunity for us to take part of the sacrifice of Jesus's death, removing the burden of sin on ones who believed in his death, that is baptism.
The Bible teaches that Jesus is “the expiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2). This is the heart of the Christian message: Christ made satisfaction for our sins (paid a debt) through his death on the cross. God put a debt on Jesus for our sins.
It was a cure all to the individual himself/herself that believed, not humanity as a whole. I'm not sure what people you hang around that call themselves Christians, but the people I know are true Christians and keep themselves away from sin and are not bond by that sin any longer. Therefore, sin is removed IN THEIR LIVES, once and for all. They are changed people and refuse to be what they were before, slaves to sin.
humans ever stop sinning?
As we read in 1 Kings 8:46 and 2 Chronicles 6:36 regarding the faithful people of God, "There is no man who does not sin." And as John wrote in exhortation of the Christian's life of continuing repentance, "If we say we have no sin we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us" (1 John 1:8).

I would agree IF the solution was to dissolve sin entirely, but this is not the case with the death of Jesus. It gave an opportunity for us to choose or decide if we want the sacrifice in our place for sin for our own lives.
Why did Jesus have to die on the cross to save us?
Because God is holy and just, He must punish our sins. He can't simply sweep them under the rug and pretend they never happened. But God is also infinitely loving and gracious. In His great love, He sent Jesus to die as our substitute.
What sin did Jesus die for?
The Bible teaches that Jesus is “the expiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2). This is the heart of the Christian message: Christ made satisfaction for our sins (paid a debt) through his death on the cross.
Good sent Jesus to die as our substitute. Jesus died not only for our sin, but also for the sins of the whole world. Jesus paid a debt through his death on the cross. A debt that God put on Jesus.
That is why Jesus lamented on the cross.
Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

@CatholicApologetics
Christ’s sacrifice wasn’t meant to vanish sin instantly but to free us from its eternal penalty while honoring our free will. From a Christian perspective, sin’s “solution” is not forced upon anyone, because God desires love that is chosen, not coerced. Through the Cross, Christ paid sin’s debt and reopened the path to God, yet we remain free to accept or reject this gift, which is why sin persists. His death is thus a victory, not a failure, because it conquers sin’s ultimate power—eternal separation from God—while offering all who choose it the chance for real transformation and communion with Him.
Jesus if he was given more time could have eradicated poverty, diseases, other human suffering. Instead God chose to sacrifice him after just 3 years in his ministry to conquer sin. Even his disciples could not make sense of why Jesus had to die.
Did the disciples understand Jesus would die?
The final message is that the disciples' couldn't understand when Jesus predicts his death, not even when Jesus is actually put to death. But he denied it. “I don't know or understand what you're talking about,” he said, and went out into the entryway.
The ultimate separation from God was Jesus on the cross lamenting.
Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
So not only do we have human suffering, poverty, disease we still have sin for which Jesus was sacrificed. And a judgement day that Jesus’s did little to change because sin and evil continue to multiply.
Please respond to Stephen’s request. He raised some interesting points.

People don't have any moral obligations if they don't want them? I don't think that's how obligations work.
People have moral obligations to the religion they follow or to the code of ethics they live by.

Visualizations: Tesla had an extraordinary ability to visualize complex systems.
Tesla criticized certain aspects of relativity theory and expressed skepticism about the concept of curved spacetime. He believed that the theories of electromagnetism he had developed, such as his own theory of gravitation, were more accurate and had a deeper understanding of the fundamental workings of the universe.J

How did Jesus sacrifice save us from sin?
By the merits of his passion death and resurrection, salvation has been won for us. By his death on the cross, Jesus paid the debt incurred by my sins. These familiar phrases are at the heart of Christianity's claim that salvation comes to us through the death of Jesus Christ. But sin continued to multiply even after his sacrifice.
When a solution to a problem is proposed. If the problem goes away or is reduced then the solution is considered a success.

Election cheating is not a coin flip. If there are 5k fraudulent votes, our choices are not (A) it was all democrats, or (B) it was all republicans. Math matters, and we know that neither side has a monopoly on election cheating.
Math does matter. A simple counting of the votes will confirm who won.

I think CA answered it with the idea of free will and love towards humanity with a lot of words. If God wants someone to love them of their own choice, then eliminating the choice of sin would only leave the option of following God's laws. So in God's way, he gave us an option to be free from sin by the blood of Christ if we so choose to be baptized.The idea of why did he do the whole virgin birth, blood scourging, etc, etc, is beyond me and one could only speculate, but for sure it was planned from the beginning and foreshadowed throughout the law.
God define what sin was. They were all found as parts in human nature, such as greed, dishonesty, lust etc. But God created man in his image. So God bears full responsibility for creating sin.

Christianity was invented and made up by man. Jesus didn't start it, God didn't start it. We can learn in scripture what God started from the foundation of the world.
Jesus was the central figure in Christianity. Jesus had to be accepted to be a Christian. So Christianity started with Jesus.
How can I become a Christian?
This is the best part. Because of His love for us, God has made it exceedingly simple to become a Christian. All you have to do is receive Jesus as your Savior, fully accepting His death as the sufficient sacrifice for your sins (John 3:16), fully trusting Him alone as your Savior (John 14:6; Acts 4:12). Becoming a Christian is not all about rituals, going to church, or doing certain things while refraining from other things. Becoming a Christian is all about having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. A personal relationship with Jesus Christ, through faith, is what makes a person a Christian.
Are you ready to become a Christian?
If you are ready to become a Christian by receiving Jesus Christ as your Savior, all you have to do is believe. Do you understand and believe that you have sinned and are worthy of judgment from God? Do you understand and believe that Jesus took your punishment upon Himself, dying in your place? Do you understand and believe that His death was the sufficient sacrifice to pay for your sins? If your answers to these three questions are yes, then simply place your trust in Jesus as your Savior. Receive Him, by faith, fully trusting in Him alone. That is all it takes to become a Christian!

What will replace string theory?
Bosonic string theory was eventually superseded by theories called superstring theories. These theories describe both bosons and fermions, and they incorporate a theoretical idea called supersymmetry. In theories with supersymmetry, each boson has a counterpart which is a fermion, and vice versa.
Future Prospects
Theoretical physicists continue to refine the mathematical models and explore new aspects of the theory, such as non-perturbative effects and string field theory. Empirical breakthroughs, such as the discovery of supersymmetry or extra dimensions, could provide crucial evidence for string theory.

But that was all that Newton saw, a falling apple.Does not follow that the apple proved gravity, nothing has proved gravity. There has been evidence that supported but not proved
A falling apple led to the discovery of gravity.
Newton's discovery
The first written account appears in notes on Newton's life collected by John Conduitt in 1726, the year of Newton's death. It states that: "he first thought of his system of gravitation which he hit upon by observing an apple fall from a tree". The event occurred in the late summer of 1666.

They dont even play games. They just read nonsense news all day and believe almost everything without question. Their ability to think doesnt even exist.

My ancestors were all stupid too, so I dont really know how is it possible that I am the product of them. The only thing I can explain it with is the great amount of disorders that I have which may have helped me develop intelligence by forcing me to think and figure out how to manage in difficult situations I was constantly in.

I dont even know how is it possible to use smartphone every day and not learn almost anything.

The correct thoughts are sedavacantism, but he has accepted the heretics of vatican 2 and the current pope. I will be writer a more full argument for sedavacantism when I have some time.
By withdrawing submission from the Holy Father and the faithful in communion with him, Sedevacantists are schismatic and hence automatically excommunicated from the Church under both Divine and ecclesiastical law (canon 1325, par. 2).

Yes it did lead to the discovery of gravity, but it wasn’t the Apple falling that gave us the main understanding of gravity, instead gravity was simply a hypothesis to explain the experienced phenomenon. And the reason gravity is a valid hypothesis is that it’s falsifiable and yet all the attempts to falsify it have failed so the hypothesis has stood.
But that was all that Newton saw, a falling apple.

An apple falling from a tree doesn’t prove gravity, it simply proves that apples fall from trees, we don’t need science to prove that. What science does is it hypothesizes why it falls from the tree, not if it falls from the tree. And one of the hypothesis, and the most accepted one is gravity and that’s because it’s a hypothesis that has evidence supporting it and has never been disproven or “torn down” by the scientific method.
