For someone who believes in God as defined by the Ten Commandments, Christ may simply be a dirty trick played on man by Satan to anger God. Instead of messiah, Christ maybe is Satan.
First, by getting the Christians to pray to Jesus and create all those graven images of him, the Cross, mother Mary and even the manger, Satan succeeds in getting about a billion humans to violate the first---and, assumedly greatest--commandment, tho shall worship no other gods.
As if that's not bad enough...Satan does one better. He makes it such that the idol, Christ, can (apparently with a wave of the magic hand) forgive man of any bad act, including repeated violations of all the other commandments, just as long as they promise to accept him, Jesus (who's probably Satan in disguise) as their one and only savior. After all, who but the arrogant fallen angel would ever say that you can only reach God by going through him?
Isn't that exactly the kind of trick Satan would play on man?
