Did Jesus have the power to stop his suffering and why did he choose not to? In this broadcast Pastor Colin explores Jesus' remarkable choice to endure the agony of the cross out of profound love—for his Father and for us.
Pastor Colin explains that Jesus, faced with betrayal and arrest, could have called upon legions of angels to rescue him, yet he chose the cup of suffering his Father offered. This decision reveals the depth of the love that Jesus has for humanity—a love that spurs him to lay down his life willingly, offering salvation to us all.
Reflecting on Isaiah chapter 53, verse 7, Colin elaborates on the concept of 'Submission', showing how Jesus' silence during his trials was not a sign of helplessness but a conscious alignment with his Father's will. This opens up a powerful perspective for us as believers: Jesus wasn't passively led to the cross but actively walked towards it, echoing his unwavering commitment to our redemption.
