Our Savior went willingly to His torture and death. He knew He’d die for us. Though His soul was troubled, Jesus was still willing to die for us, calling it His purpose, and even saying, “Father, glorify your name” 

It wasn’t easy for Jesus to die on the cross. Yet he did.

Scripture tells us Jesus understood His death was for our benefit. During the Last Supper, Jesus described His body as being broken for us and His blood as being poured out for us. He died for us. “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends”
