14. Salvation: Did God make rules too strong for God to break?

God expects this behavior from us. We are fallen and deserve punishment, he took our punishment for us, and now we can be saved. But does it make any sense? Is it just? Is it good? Could God have just forgiven us outright, without having to incarnate himself to kill himself to please himself? Why was God so upset in the first place? If God wishes none of us should perish, does God get what God wants?
