Mike are you sure ? what don't I understand ?Would you like scriptures with that ?

Some great answers , keep em comeing.

Answer 1

Once He saw that they were going to kill Him, he accepted His fate. He struggled with it, but He accepted it. (Mk.14:36, Mt.26:39-44, Lk.22:42)

He died because the point of His becoming human was to experience everything that humans do -- even dispair, anguish, and struggle against an impending death. Doing that paved the way for our participation in His divine nature.

Answer 2

If you read the scriptures, Jesus did, indeed know and accept His divine purpose. He spent some hours in the garden of Gesthemene in prayer about it. He asked God to take it away from Him, but if it was God's will then He would accept it. People in the crowds jeered at Him to call upon the power of God to save Himself, but, instead, He asked God to forgive them. Trust me, He knew His options! Shortly before this all happened, during the time when Satan attempted to get Jesus to stray from His mission, Satan told Jesus to throw Himself from the top of a mountain so that the angels could come save Him, but He refused to try to test God. Sorry, but I can't forget that He was the God the Son, God in flesh or that He died for our sins; it's just too wonderful and important!

Answer 3

Yes, he knew and accepted his fate. He came down to Earth knowing that someone would deceive him, its mankind, but he did so to create a way to the Father. Before Jesus was here on Earth, the only way to talk to God was through the priest, as shown by the cloth separating the sanctuary and the room of most holy, which is where the priest would pray to God about the things that has come to his attention. When Jesus died for our sins, that cloth was ripped down as a symbol of not needing to go through the priest to talk to our Heavenly Father, but being able to do so by ourselves at our own free will. That was the main reason that Jesus came down here, became poor, and died on the cruel cross. It was a way to make a relationship to the Father more applicable.

Answer 4

i'm customarily reluctant to declare he died for sin... yet utilising the language of the time, sins have been adequate to make human beings ineffective. so as that assertion might have equated to a pardon of varieties. i think Jesus grew to become into the son of God. i think of it grew to become right into an important step by using fact God the father did not have an experiential attitude of existence on the earth (alongside with each and all of the enticements and stuff). God the earthling (guy or woman who is conscious) can act as a mediator between father God and the separated/incorrect babies (us). and then the holy spirit grew to become into the present of an prompt line, so we does not could circulate via somebody else to communicate with God (by using fact all human beings is each each now and then not common). we are sinners. with out Jesus dying, the pardon does not have existed. we could have been obligated to cover our errors or stay a life-time of hypocrisy (that's a non secular ache). with out the existence in a while, the dying could have been unremarkable. So, what incorrect way ought to it have been completed? God is extraordinarily dang clever, eh!

Answer 5

Hebrews 19:19-26

19 For after Moses had given the people all of God's laws, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, and sprinkled both the book of God's laws and all the people, using branches of hyssop bushes and scarlet wool.

20 Then he said, "This blood confirms the covenant God has made with you."

21 And in the same way, he sprinkled blood on the sacred tent and on everything used for worship.

22 In fact, we can say that according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified by sprinkling with blood. Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins.

23 That is why the earthly tent and everything in it-which were copies of things in heaven-had to be purified by the blood of animals. But the real things in heaven had to be purified with far better sacrifices than the blood of animals.

24 For Christ has entered into heaven itself to appear now before God as our Advocate. He did not go into the earthly place of worship, for that was merely a copy of the real Temple in heaven.

25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, like the earthly high priest who enters the Most Holy Place year after year to offer the blood of an animal.

26 If that had been necessary, he would have had to die again and again, ever since the world began. But no! He came once for all time, at the end of the age, to remove the power of sin forever by his sacrificial death for us.

Of course He knew and accepted His fate (Matthew 26:39). He came down to earth to accomplish this very task, for all mankind, for without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins. Just as in the Old Testament, when the Israelites were commanded to offer a sacrifice to atone for sins (as was their covenant with God), Christ Himself became the eternal sacrifice for all. Now, all who believe in Jesus have entered into this new covenant with God, through His Son.

Answer 6

If you are familiar with the Bible, in it you recall that over and over again Christ [the God-realized Soul that the Man Jesus became after initiation by John the Baptist] is reported as saying that He did the work of his Father, and not of Himself.

The Soul born as Jesus, came into Creation precisely to do what he did. Nothing occurred with Christ that was not in the scriptures, as we are reminded by reading the Bible.

Every Saint comes into the physical plane precisely to attend to those Souls allotted to Him/Her. In the case of Christ, His followers were destined to create a religion after he was departed from this plane. One is free to believe what one will, but the fact is, each of us follows a Fate Karma that is precisely formulated for one to maximize the opportunity to pay off ones Karma so as to reduce ones Karmic load. The eventual goal of this process is to get the load light enough that one may meet a Perfect Living Master, and to seek initiation from Him, and to begin ones long journey Home. But most shun this in preference of thinking that the brain alone is all one needs to demand that God recognize ones greatness.

Answer 8

He described what would happen many times, although his disciples didn't really understand until later.

He submitted in all things to the will of his Father in order to accomplish the Atonement for the salvation of mankind.

This was part of the plan prior to creation. He accepted the responsibility and fulfilled it even though he could have backed out at any time.

Answer 9

In the Bible, Mark chapter 10 verse 45

Mark tells his followers that even Jesus 'did not come to be served; he came to serve, and to give his life to redeem many people'. In other words, Jesus said his death was the greatest act of service he was to do, and his death was the price that had to be paid to release people from slavery, slavery in the sense that we are under the power of sin and death, and need to be set free.

Answer 10

Yes, Jesus knew full well what was going to happen. He did as His Father to let it pass by Him, but in the end it was God's plan that Jesus be sacrificed, rise from the dead, and be the perfect and final sacrifice for us all.
