What does the Bible say about jesus death?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible teaches that Jesus willingly died for sinners, bearing the punishment our sins deserved, to reconcile us to God and give eternal life to all who trust in him. Isaiah 53:5 foretells that he was wounded for our transgressions, and 1 Peter 3:18 declares that the righteous Christ suffered for the unrighteous to bring us to God. His death was a true atoning sacrifice, not merely an example of love, though it displays love beyond measure. John 3:16 and 1 John 2:2 proclaim God’s provision of salvation through his Son. Jesus laid down his life freely and completed his saving work, crying, “It is finished” (John 10:17-18; John 19:30).
