What are a few reasons why Christ died upon the cross?
I will start.
There are other reasons I can think of, but I will let others have a chance to answer, as well.
Oh, and please keep in mind that my reasons are not listed in order of importance or anything. For I have another reason that could potentially be a #1.
I will start.
#1. Christ died upon the cross to forgive us our sins (Hebrews 9:22).
#2. Christ died upon the cross so that He might sanctify us with the washing of the water of the Word (Scripture) so that He might present to Himself a church that is holy and without blemish or spot (Ephesians 5:25-27). For Christ died for us to redeem us from all iniquity (Titus 2:14).
#3. Christ died upon the cross because it would nail to the cross those ordinances that were against us in the Old Law (Colossians 2:14-17).
