This particular part has been unsettling for me.
Jesus says, "Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels?" Matthew 26:53.
He also says, ""My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place." John 18:36
This bothers me because in the first one it seems like he is there to be crucified willingly to fulfill the prophesy.
The second one seems to indicate that He is there against his will and would prevent it if it were possible.
I don't get it.
