Why did Jesus die for us on the Cross?

Let’s get back to our program, Faith Capsules.

We spoke about the cross of the Lord. He was crucified with his free will following the will of Father, because he is one with his father in divinity. So he offered himself as a sacrifice ransom for all human beings. But you all know, speaking this way. 

He is like a new beginning for humanity; That’s why, we call him the second Adam. The new Adam. We are all the offspring of Adam.

The first Adam gave us death, corruption and the sinful nature and problems. So we inherited death, corruption and evil from our parents, Adam and Eve. 

If we stick to the new source, to the new beginning, the new Adam, now we all will be released. Now we will be a new world of people, new creatures like regaining the image of God.

So we lost the image, it was corrupted by our free will. And then the new Adam regained this image back to us through redemption. 

That’s why Christ, when he obeyed the will of God to die for us, completed this redemption by resurrection; when he rose from the dead he overcame death; No one of us is scared of death, because now we will be free from death. We are waiting for the new life. 

Now we will sleep as he slept on the cross. But when he rose from the dead, every one of us are waiting to rise from the dead one day. We are waiting for his promise, because he is the author of life. 

He is the source of life. So to stick to him is to have a life from him. So with the resurrection, the power of resurrection is the gift of God to his believers.
