Jesus: His Suffering, Our Ransom
Listen to our friend Banele tell us how Jesus suffered for us on the cross
Jesus had prepared his disciples by warning them that he would suffer and die. Even with multiple warnings, though, the disciples did not fully understand the culminating sacrifice Jesus would make (Matt 16:21; 17:22–23; 20:17–19). Jesus endured physical torture, emotional trauma, and spiritual agony. Why did he endure all this suffering? “For the joy that was set before him” (Heb 12:2 ESV). Jesus knew that his death and resurrection would fulfill God’s plan for our redemption (Matt 16:21; John 3:16; Heb 9:28).
Jesus said he came “to give his life as a ransom for many” (Matt 20:28 ESV). His suffering paid for our rescue. His death bought us true prosperity.

Can we prosper even as we suffer? The Bible shows us that Joseph, Jeremiah, Paul, and Jesus suffered with purpose—so that lives would be saved. In their suffering, they modeled for us a true prosperity that exceeds what this world promises. True prosperity in suffering reveals God’s presence and faithfulness, our perseverance, our ransom, our forgiveness, and our hope.
