Because of our sin, you and I are responsible for the death of Jesus. If we are willing to accept that painful truth and trust in Jesus' work on the cross, God grants us forgiveness and new life.
Jesus had to experience suffering and death in order to experience joy and resurrection. This not only saves us, but it also provides the pattern we should expect for our own lives and sanctification.
