36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt (Mark 14:36).
Christ was obedient. His obedience was very important not just because this obedience was part of His very nature but because it was necessary for our salvation. Salvation is a sovereign choice of God not Man. Christ chose to sacrifice Himself and pay the penalty that we deserve. That penalty had to be paid so we could be saved. Ultimately, Christ’s obedience is a sign of God’s love for His people.
