How did Jesus Christ die?

Question

I want to know why they killed Jesus, who killed him and how it benefits us.

Answer 1

Jesus was crucified.. meaning they hung him on the cross for him to die. We all mess up and do bad things.. he is holy; God's son.. basically he made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can get to Heaven. All you have to do is accept him as your Lord and Savior and admit that you've done wrong.

Answer 2

It was the Father's will Jesus was the Lamb of God, a total supreme sacrifice for all mankind , that is why when they crucified him on the cross , Jesus said "It is finished and he gave up the ghost"

Sins were made atonement for by the sacrificing of animals in the Bible, God saw that that did not work, man still sinned so he came to believe he had a better more excellent way for man to be redeemed back to himself, now we can go into the Holy of Holies for ourselves and not by a priest

Answer 3

Don't you know, Lisa? His Father killed Him. No Joke-let me explain:

The Father & Son relationship was prefigured in Abram offering his son, Isaac on Mt. Moriah. God led Abram there, to the very spot where he was to slay his son, instead of the customary lambs.

Abram agonized a long time, and when the knife was raised over Isaac, an angel stopped that scene. You see, Mt Moriah was not populated then--it was in the wilderness.

But two thousand years later Jersualem was there, and Mt Moriah was then Gethsename, the spot where God offered His Son, Jesus.

Read Isaiah 53--entirely. It tells how it pleased the Lord (Father) to crush Him (Jesus) when He makes him an offering for sin.

Yes, the wrath of God against sin, and the penalty of sin is death, must fall on Jesus, who is the ruler of the universe. By being that perfect Lamb without blemish, an offering for sin, Jesus, our Creator, becomes Jesus, our Redeemer. And He will eventually rule this planet in Adam's place, as the "last Adam."

Answer 4

Lisa,Jesus was crucified,he gave his life for the sins of humanity... Jesus,himself said that no one could come to the Father, except. through Him...Jesus(PBUH) is God,himself...

I know that you have been taught that he is a prophet of Allah and not the Son of God...You have been mislead by people that really believe what they have taught you....They are wrong. Jesus(PBUH) was very clear about his true identity...He told his followers,"Have I been with you so long,and you do not know who I am"? Listen to your prophet Jesus...If you do not have a bible or are afraid....ASK GOD TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU...He will not turn his face from you,if you are serious... He is a personal God.

Answer 5

Jesus was sent to the earth to pay a ransom price =to the price the perfect man Adam lost by his sin

(Romans 5:12) 12 That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned—.

(Romans 5:19) . . .For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were constituted sinners, likewise also through the obedience of the one [person] many will be constituted righteous.. . .

(Matthew 20:28) 28 Just as the Son of man came, not to be ministered to, but to minister and to give his soul a ransom in exchange for many.”

Just as the 1st passover prefigured a much larger passover (the israelites were saved by the blood of the lamb) like soon those who avail themselves will be saved by the blood of the lamb Jesus christ

(Revelation 7:4) 4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel:

(Revelation 7:9-10) 9 After these things I saw, and, look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. 10 And they keep on crying with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation [we owe] to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”

(Revelation 7:13-14) 13 And in response one of the elders said to me: “These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they and where did they come from?” 14 So right away I said to him: “My lord, you are the one that knows.” And he said to me: “These are the ones that come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. . .

this was God's purpose for mankind in the begining, to live on the earth as perfect people I'm not one of the 144,000, I hope to be one of that great crowd that survives the great tribulation soon to come upon all mankind

Answer 6

The answer to this question has many facets. First, there is no doubt the religious leaders of Israel were responsible for Jesus’ death. Matthew 26:3-4 tells us that “the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas. And they consulted so that they might take Jesus by guile and kill Him.” The Jewish leaders demanded of the Romans that Jesus be put to death (Matthew 27:22-25). They couldn’t continue to allow Him to work signs and wonders because it threatened their position and place in the religious society they dominated (John 11:47-50), so “they plotted to put Him to death” (John 11:53).

The Romans were the ones who actually crucified Him (Matthew 27:27-37). Crucifixion was a Roman method of execution, authorized and carried out by the Romans under the authority of Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor who sentenced Jesus. Roman soldiers drove the nails into His hands and feet, Roman troops erected the cross and a Roman solider pierced His side (Matthew 27:27-35).

The people of Israel were also complicit in the death of Jesus. They were the ones who shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” as He stood on trial before Pilate (Luke 23:21). They also cried for the thief Barabbas to be released instead of Jesus (Matthew 27:21). Peter confirmed this in Acts 2:22-23 when he told the men of Israel “you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified and put to death” Jesus of Nazareth. In fact the murder of Jesus was a conspiracy involving Rome, Herod, the Jewish leaders and the people of Israel, a diverse group of people who never worked together on anything before or since, but who came together this one time to plot and carry out the unthinkable – the murder of the son of God.

Ultimately, and perhaps somewhat amazingly, it was God Himself who put Jesus to death. This was the greatest act of divine justice ever carried out, done in “the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God” (Acts 2:23) and for the highest purpose. Jesus’ death on the cross secured the salvation of countless millions and provided the only way God could forgive sin without compromising His holiness and perfect righteousness. Christ’s death was God’s perfect plan for the eternal redemption of His own. Far from being a victory for Satan, as some have suggested, or an unnecessary tragedy, it was the most gracious act of God’s goodness and mercy, the ultimate expression of the Father’s love for sinners. God put Jesus to death for our sin so that we could live in sinless righteousness before Him, a righteousness only possible because of the cross. “He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

So we who have come to Christ in faith are guilty of His blood, shed on the cross for us. He died to pay the penalty for our sins (Romans 5:8; 6:23-24). In the movie "The Passion of the Christ," the director, Mel Gibson, was the one whose hands you see actually driving the nails through Christ's hands. He did it that way to remind himself, and everyone else, that it was our sins that nailed Jesus to the cross.

Answer 7

He DIDN'T die:
"And the Jews were punished because they said: 'We killed the Christ, Jesus son of Mary, who was a Messenger of God'; but they neither killed him nor crucified him, though it so appeared to them. Those who disagree in the matter are only lost in doubt. They have no knowledge of it other than conjecture, for surely they did not kill him." (Quran 4:157-158)

(And We cursed them) for their saying, 'We killed the Messiah, 'Isa son of Maryam, Messenger of Allah.' They did not kill him and they did not crucify him but it was made to seem so to them. Those who argue about him are in doubt about it. They have no real knowledge of it, just conjecture. But they certainly did not kill him. (Surat an-Nisa': 157) Allah raised him up to Himself. Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. (Surat an-Nisa': 158)

Jesus Christ (PBUH) will return to kill the antichrist and bring peace to the world. God raised him to Heaven alive to save him, AFTER his return he will die.
