We sin because we don't trust God or his plan. And so we try to "improve" God's plan.
Example = Abram (Gen 15-16)
The most important thing to us is pain. The second most is relief/pleasure. If God's plan doesn't deal with those things we look for an alternative. Jesus' life was not a success when considered by this criteria. We think we can do better than Jesus, though we would rarely own up to it.
Either God is unable to give us what we need or we don't realise what we need. Let's start considering what the gospel is based on. What Jesus does and says rather than what we think it should be about.
