to A.Qurius Muse, your answer exceeds 10,000 words no one is going to read except the Bible people who repeatedly read the same old paragraphs.
Answer to the question: Jesus wanted to die because he was afraid the truth might come out that he was just an ordinary man.

Oh you're in for it now. I think the pick-up truck just kept driving. I think its silly too. There should be no sin if he died for our sins, etc. Dont you worry your pretty little head about it, none of this is real. You have never experienced anything apart from your own mind.

When Adam fell, mankind gained a sin nature. God cannot exist where sin is. Man had to be reconciled back to God so mankind needed a redeemer. Jesus is the redeemer. He paid the penalty of sin (which is eternal death) so we wouldn't have to, so we could have eternal life.

Note: This is a partial answer to another question relating to the existence of God. There is more to what I have partially revealed that is far more extensive and would require a book-length treatise to fully connect the dots to the nature of God and man's connection to Him.
God physically exists. He is just physically different. God Himself is The Book of Life. Every soul created from God (be it angel or human), are written in The Book of Life (which means are in harmony with God's state of existence from conception). "Spirits" are angels. The human race are spiritual descendants of God through Adam and Eve (who were both in harmony with God's existence and thus were in the Book of Life).
S.I.N is Spirit Inverse Nature. God is Spirit. Anything opposite of God's Nature is SIN. Spirits created from God's physical existence is made from the stuff God is made of and is naturally in harmony with God's state of perfection. When a spirit does something opposite of God's nature, or SIN, they become inverted (their physical existence is literally opposite of God's nature). If an angel inverts, it is permanent because angels are made of the same stuff that God is made of: ENERGY. When energy changes form, it cannot change back to its original state. A raw egg when cooked can't be restored to its raw state. Thus, when an angel inverts, because it consists as conscious energy, it is permanent. Inverted angels are demons. When a spirit being inverts, they are no longer in harmony with God, and are thus removed from the Book of Life.
A human being consists as spirit, soul, and body. The human spirit dwells within the soul. The soul is a composite of both the spirit and the body. The soul dwells in the brain and controls the body through the brain; which is why you are not dead until you are brain dead (without the aid of any machine). Human spirits are made of the stuff like that of angels, but consist as the raw material from which the human soul is created (and then co-exists interdependently within the human soul). The human soul is YOU - the individual who is expressing thought, emotion, and actions through the physical body.
When Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, their soul and body inverted and they became opposite of God's nature and their bodies began to age. God prevented them from eating of the tree of life to prevent their spirits from becoming inverted (and making it possible for their souls to be restored to God's nature of existence (to be reverted) through the blood of lambs).
Genesis 3.21
“Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.”
Leviticus 17.11
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement (reconciliation/restoration) for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.”
Animals are governed by the spirit of life that dwells in them; and cannot invert, so that when they die, they are simply restored to God. The human body and the body of mammals are created from the earth, thus God was able to use the body of animals as a substitute for the inverted human body - through which the blood of that which is pure is used to cleanse that which is inverted (to temporarily restore them to God - which required a daily sacrifice until God Himself formed a body to provide His own blood to restore the human soul to Himself permanently).
John 1.29
“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”
To take away the S.I.N. of the world is to restore the inverted state of man back to its original state. This can only be done through pure blood; which is why Christ said,
John 14.6
“I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father (is restored to The Book of Life as a son of God), but by me.”
It is the blood of Christ that restores you to the Book of Life.
Leviticus 17.11
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement (reconciliation/restoration) for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.”
The breath of life that came from God's physical existence is the spirit of life. The human spirit itself is literally restored to God; while the soul's destination is determined by its state of existence upon death (which takes about 1/10th of a second). Upon death, the soul consists in either one of two states: in harmony with God's existence or opposite of God's existence (or the inverse).
Romans 5.12
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
Exodus 32.31-33
“And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.”
Revelation 20.11, 12, 15
“And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
The dead who were removed from the Book of Life when they SINned against God while alive, never restored themselves to God (the Book of Life) before they died. Because they were not in harmony with God when they died, they were permanently inverted, and was cast into the Lake of Fire.
Because you genetically inherited the "knowledge of good and evil" from Adam and Eve (from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil), when that knowledge matured within you when you became of age, you inverted (or became opposite of God's nature). When you S.I.N. against God, you become opposite of God and become separate from God; God thus removed your name (your soul) from the Book of Life, because you are no longer in harmony with Him. If you are not restored to God (The Book of Life) before you die, you will die in SIN (Remain Spiritually Inverted), and therefore be cast into the Lake of Fire by God Himself. Because you are inverted, you are not restored to God, if you are not restored to God before you die, you will be permanently inverted and separated from God forever; and you will be cast into the Lake of Fire.
To avoid this fate, you must be restored to (God) The Book of Life before you die.
John 8.24
“I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am, ye shall die in your sins.”
Christ (Who IS Jehovah), The God Who removed you from the Book of Life when you sinned against Him, became flesh to shed His blood for your sins, to restore you to the Book of Life. This is what The Passion of The Christ was for.
Exodus 32.31-33
“And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.”
Revelation 20.11, 12, 15
“And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
John 1.29
“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”
John 3.16, 17
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
Forget religion. God has nothing to do with religion. Religion is something Satan created to control man through religion by manipulating man's fear of God to keep them from TRULY KNOWING GOD and from being restored to God (because man was once ONE with God when they came into being from conception).
You are made from the stuff God is made of, because God created you from Himself. God physically exists, He is just physically different. Because God is eternal and cannot cease to exist, you are eternal and cannot cease to exist. Because you are eternal, if you have been restored to God, the Book of Life before you die, when you die, you will see God in one tenth of a second (the twinkling of an eye). When you die, you do not cease consciousness, nor cease to exist because you are created from God's physical existence and are thus eternal.
If you ever felt your foot fall asleep, your whole body will feel like that when you are physically in God's presence. You will be able to explore the City of God (its walls being 1,500 miles high - just think of arriving in Paris and Italy - but only bigger). You will be able to fly through the regions of space and cross billions of light years in a second. And if you want, God can take you back in time and show you creation. Just ask Him.
Right now you are inverted and you are separate from God. If you die in your current state, you will be permanently inverted; you will wake up to a place of darkness and experience the intense pain of burning by fire. This pain is ceaseless. You will be in this place until you stand before God. Because you died inverted, you will be cast into the Lake of Fire; and the smoke of your torment will go up forever and ever.
Just imagine being in a body of water that is fire with no way of escape, and being there forever...
Unfortunately, many die not restored to God because they rejected His way (thinking that what they believed in was true; or the fact that they didn't believe that He existed at all). Satan's future is already set, and he is determined to take as many with him as possible through religion, deception, manipulation, and lies.
God, Who removed you from the Book of Life when you sinned against Him, became flesh to suffer and die to restore you to the Book of Life.
You were once His, but you became separated from Him. He did everything possible to make it possible for you to be restored to Him through His gift of Himself. Because He gave you a free will, He will not force you to be restored to Him, He has simply extended an invitation to you to come back to Him.
All you have to do is accept His invitation to be restored to Him as a "son of God" (the term "son" is gender neutral).
You can become restored to God right now, and experience Him physically; because He is your heritage - your Root from which you came. If you wish to be restored to God, say this to Him from your heart:
"Jesus, I accept that You are Yahweh, Jehovah God; that You chose to become a man to shed Your blood on the cross to cleanse me from my sins with Your blood, and restore me as a son of God to You, The Book of Life. I accept that You shed Your blood on the cross for my sins. I accept that You died, was buried for three days, that You rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven and sat down on the right hand of God the Father. I accept the contract You have offered, to forgive me of and cleanse me from all my sins, and to come into my spirit and restore me as a son of God to You, The Book of Life; if I willingly choose to voluntarily turn away from living in sin, and willingly choose to voluntarily learn and live the principles of God in harmony with Your name (that are opposite of sin). I declare to you right now that I willingly choose to voluntarily turn away from living in sin, and willingly choose to voluntarily learn and live the principles of God in harmony with Your name; and I ask You to forgive me of and cleanse me from all my sins, and to come into my spirit and restore me as a son of God to You, The Book of Life.
Thank You. Amen."
If you said this to God from the heart and meant it, God has immediately responded, and you will feel it. You will sense in your spirit, God's presence. You will feel different. You will sense a tingling sensation and feel lighter - like an invisible weight on your heart is suddenly gone. What you are actually feeling for the very first time, is God Himself living within your spirit; and to be truly forgiven of and cleansed from all your sins.
You are now restored to God as a son of God...
Luke 15.7, 10
I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth... there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth...
I speak from first hand experience, and tell you that what God is all about is to restore you to Himself before you die, so that you can see Him and live with Him in joy forever...
