why did jesus die on the cross for children
Metaphorically, God presented Jesus as a sacrifice for our forgiveness. Sin has consequences, and Jesus volunteered to suffer the consequences on our behalf. The cross demonstrates Godâs love as well as his justice (Romans 5:8). As Isaiah says, we have peace with God because of what Christ did.esus said, âThe Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for manyâ (Matthew 20:28). He came to give his life, to die, and his death would result in salvation for others. This was the reason he came to earth. His blood was poured out for others (Matthew 26:28).
