What did really happen to Jesus on the cross?

[PetriFB]

The majority of people here on earth have heard about the Crucifixion and death of the Lord Jesus Messiah, but only a minority of all the people here on earth have understood what the crucifixion and death of the Lord Jesus Messiah means. For many, the Crucifixion and death of the Lord Jesus Messiah is just a story among other stories.
When we study the suffering, crucifixion and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Messiah, we see the largest and most significant salvation throughout the entire history of the world, and an event through which we can receive eternal salvation through faith in the Lord Jesus Messiah. You have the opportunity to have your sins forgiven and receive a new, eternal life in the Lord Jesus Messiah.
Through the suffering and love of the Lord Jesus Messiah, the beauty of Biblical salvation and the significance of the death of the Lord Jesus Messiah on the cross can open up to you in a new way, which can lead you into salvation through faith in the Lord Jesus Messiah.

Hi Petri,

You know, I couldn't agree more.
I think sometimes we take the salvation message far too lightly.
This may be due to we rarely see things of this nature now. At least not in the U.S.
However I can only imagine my Savior in that cemetery(Garden) feeling the very weight of sin on his glorious shoulders.
Perspiring sweat of blood, considering what a burden He must bare for people who may turn a cold shoulder to Him.
Being publicly humiliated, mocked, & spit on.
Tortured as we rightly deserve to be.
Any why?
Because He was thinking of you. Yes you reading this now, and Me, and all of humanity.
As he was enduring the pressures of condemnation and separation from the Father...
All that was on the savior's mind was to press on for you.
God Bless.
Let's remember Jesus's sacrifice
Let's pray with and for each other
That we may not Crucify the Lord a fresh

I agree that the crucifixion was the price paid.......the atonement for mans sin..........BUT you are leaving out one KEY POINT!

THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST........

For if Christ is not risen, then our faith is in vain..........(a wise man of God once said that)

 

[HeRoseFromTheDead]

I am disinclined to believe the sweating drops of blood theory. The text says that Jesus sweated as great drops of blood, not that he actually sweated blood.

Those who have lived in very humid environments know that outdoor physical exertion will produce copious amounts of sweat that pour off the skin like great drops of blood. This phenomenon would have been unheard of in a dry, arid environment like Israel where sweat evaporates as soon as it emerges from the skin. So for Jesus to have sweated great drops of sweat indicates the extreme stress he was under at the thought of being separated from GOD his father.

 

[p_rehbein]

I also wonder about that passage, and tend to agree. If we could comprehend the amount of pain and suffering Jesus must have been going through on the Cross, and then imagine the amount of pain and suffering one would have to be experiencing to actually "sweat great drops of blood," then we can begin to understand His suffering.

 

[p_rehbein]

I also can't help but notice that ONE other thing was left out............While on the Cross, in the midst of ALL of His pain and suffering, Jesus granted eternal life to one of those who hung next to Him. This surely is worthy of mention.

Jesus did not die between two thieves, He died between an unrepentant sinner (thief), and a new believer (well, in my opinion anyway.......).

Hematidrosis (also called hematohidrosis) is a very rare condition in which a human sweats blood. It may occur when a person is suffering extreme levels of stress, for example, facing his or her own death. Several historical references have been described; notably by Leonardo da Vinci: describing a soldier who sweated blood before battle, men unexpectedly given a death sentence, as well as descriptions in the Bible, that Jesus experienced hematidrosis when he was praying in the garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:43-44).

Hematidrosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

...

(Luke 22 :42‑44).. The most logical explanation of this phenomenon is as follows. The severe mental anxiety due to a profound fear of His prescient sufferings activated the sympathetic nervous system to invoke the stress-fight or flight reaction to such a degree causing hemorrhage of the vessels supplying the sweat glands into the ducts of the sweat glands and extruding out onto the skin. While hematidrosis has been reported to occur from other rare medical entities, the presence of profound fear accounted for a significant number of reported cases including six cases in men condemned to execution, a case occurring during the London blitz, a case involving a fear of being raped, a fear of a storm while sailing etc.[5], [6] The hematidrosis is a reflection of the severity of Jesus' mental suffering. The effects on the body is that of weakness and mild to moderate dehydration from the severe anxiety and both the blood and sweat loss.
