In the second part of our series on suffering, Audrey starts from Isaiah 53 and shows us the wonder of Jesus' suffering. For us.
Why did Jesus suffer?
1. Because He chose to be human
2. So that we can never be in a place of suffering beyond what He knows. Hebrews 2:18
3. So that you can be healed; brought to live from the death of your sin. Dead to sin and alive to righteousness Isaiah 53:5-6 1 Peter 2:24-25
4. So that, in His death, Satan’s power is defeated and we are rescued from the prison of sin and darkness Hebrews 2:14-15
5. To set us an example. 1 Peter 2:19-23
6. The very core of the Gospel!
7. To fulfil prophesy by His obedience; to be exalted and to give ultimate glory to God Hebrews 2: 9-11
