Answer 2

For some reason,I don't know why,in order to atone for sin,blood must be shed.All through the Old Testament the atoning of sin(atoning means covering,it was covered but not taken away)was taught.Leviticus tells us "The life of the soul is in the blood"..and "without the shedding of blood ,there can be no remission of sin".The passover teaches that this "Sin" offering must be (the lamb) as perfect as possible and that no bones are to be broken.In order for man to have his sins not just covered ,but forgiven forever and not just year by year,there had to be a perfect sacrifice.Being that no one is perfect except God ,only God was good enough to be the sacrifice.Well,John 4 tells us ,God is Spirit,that's pretty hard to nail to a cross!So Jesus (God the Son from all eternity) volunterred to take on a" tent" of human flesh for just that purpose.That's the importance of the virgin birth.That way the sin nature was bypassed.He was born sinless and died sinless although (and the thought of it really bothered Him as seen in the garden of Gethamane)He had to take our filthy sins on Him,He remained sinless.Blood was shed on the cross,He died and was resurrected 3 days later .Proving all He taught was true.And that all that was said of him in the Law and the Prophets was true also.

Answer 3

No Jesus Barabas replaced into the mass murdered and zealot who replaced into seat loose in pleace of Jesus because it replaced into time-honored for the Romans to launch a prisoner each and each 3 hundred and sixty 5 days on the jewish human beings's request. The Jews chosen Barabas and stated Jesus of Nazareth would desire to be crucified for blasphemy ( He claimed to be God) as is pronounced in the Gospels.

Answer 4

He died to fulfill the old testamnet prophecy, that the messiah would come, preach/ teach the new covenant and would later be put to death. He was put to death as a sacrafice for the world. When he died he paid the price that sinners would have to pay. He died so that we could have a chance at life and the opportunity to oneday see the Kingdom of God.

Answer 5

Jesus did a healing on the 'day of rest'..........and that was against the law. Then, one of the 'criminals' could go free. The choices were (1) Jesus and (2) Barbabus. The people of Rome chose which one would die on the cross (normal way to execute people, then). They let Barabus go. So, Jesus was left to die. Jesus knew he would die on the cross for all os us. He even went to the Garden of Gethsemene to talk to God about it. He asked if it was possible, to let this cup pass him. (to not die, if he didn't need to). Still, God told him it was necessary to save ALL of us. Jesus died willingly for our sins.

Answer 6

When we get down to the real nitty-gritty He was crucified as the atonement (appeasement) for the sins of all mankind.
God's wrath towards man was appeased (satisfied). Now it is up to each individual to either accept or reject Him.

Answer 7

Because sin is punishable by death.
We are all born in sin.
Jesus 'the pure lamb of God' took our place by dieing in our place so that we could be forgiven and be reunited with our father in heaven.

Answer 8

To be the ultimate sacrifice for our sin. To fulfill prophecy in the Old Testament. To tear the curtain of the inner court, so that we could stand in the presence of God.

But I believe that it was his hearts desire as well, to be in the will of His Father.
"take this cup from me, but not my will but yours be done"

Answer 9

Jesus was arrested by Roman soldiers on the orders of the Sanhedrin and the high priest, Caiaphas (cited later in Matt 26:65–67). The authorities had decided to arrest Jesus, since some of them had come to consider him a threat to their power because of his growing popularity, his new interpretations of scripture, and his revelations of their hypocrisy. The arrest took place clandestinely at night to avoid a riot, because Jesus was popular with the people at large (Mark 14:2). According to the synoptics, Judas Iscariot, one of his apostles, betrayed Jesus by identifying him to the guards with a kiss. By John's account Jesus identified himself to the guards with the words "I am he" (John 18:4–6). Another apostle (identified as Simon Peter in John 18:10) used a sword to attack one of the captors, cutting off his ear, which, according to Luke, Jesus immediately healed (Luke 22:51). Jesus rebuked the apostle, stating, "All they that take the sword shall perish with the sword" (Matt 26:52). After his arrest Jesus' apostles went into hiding. The high priests and elders asked Jesus, "Are you the Son of God?" and upon Jesus' reply of "You say that I am" (Luke 22:70–71), Jesus was condemned for blasphemy by the Sanhedrin. The high priests then turned him over to the Roman Prefect Pontius Pilate, based on an accusation of sedition for claiming to be King of the Jews (Matt 27:11; Mark 15:12).

While before Pilate, Jesus was questioned "Are you the king of the Jews?" to which he replied, "It is as you say." According to the Gospels, Pilate personally felt that Jesus was not guilty of any crime against the Romans, and since there was a custom at Passover for the Roman governor to free a prisoner (a custom not recorded outside the Gospels), Pilate offered the crowd a choice between Jesus of Nazareth and an insurrectionist named Barabbas. The crowd chose to have Barabbas freed and Jesus crucified. According to Matthew, Pilate washed his hands to display that he himself was innocent of the injustice of the decision (Matt 27:11–26). Pilate, attempting to placate the crowd, had Jesus scourged. The crowd demanded that Jesus be crucified, and Pilate relented. Depending on the gospel, at some point Roman soldiers fashioned a crown out of thorns and placed it on Jesus' head.

All four Gospels say Pilate then ordered Jesus to be crucified with a charge placed atop the cross (known as the titulus crucis) which read something along the lines of "King of the Jews", depending on the gospel account. (The titulus crucis is often written as INRI, the Latin acronym.) Having carried his own cross, Jesus was crucified on Golgotha. According to the Gospel of Luke, as he was crucified, Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; they know not what they do." As he hung on the cross, he was mocked by passers-by and given a drink of wine vinegar. According to the Gospel of John, he was visited by his mother and others; then his death was confirmed by a Roman soldier piercing his side with a spear (John 19:34).

Answer 10

Because he was viewed as threat to the Romans because of his following. They viewed him as someone who might displace them.
