why Jesus came to die: to learn obedience and be perfected

why Jesus came to die: to learn obedience and be perfected by ric Gustafson


Hebrews 5:8 says although he was a son he learned obedience through what he suffered.


Hebrews 4:15 says that in every respect Christ has been tempted as we are yet without sin. Jesus was sinless. Even though Jesus is the divine Son of God, he was human and had temptations, appetites and physical weaknesses. Jesus had anger, hunger, grief and pain. But Jesus's heart was in perfect love with God.
Jesus obeyed each trial of life in practice, pain and obeying. According to Hebrews 2:17, Jesus fulfilled his true humanity and called us brothers and sisters.
