Why did Jesus come?

Posted by boyd berends

A couple of weeks ago pastor Dave spoke on “Why Jesus Came”. Now I am sure there are more than 6 reasons, but if a couple of the reasons where to ransom us and to give us eternal life, (death) then why did He have to suffer so? After all death is death and does not have to be so painfull.

Or is according to Isaiah 53, there a reason for the suffering Jesus went through? Watch the movie the “Passion” and ask yourself if the suffering was necessarily required as part of Jesus’ death?

Interesting thought isn’t it? If the suffering was not required,( and according to the Word only death was required to redeem us) then why did He have to suffer as He did?

More on this later.
