Why was Jesus nailed to the cross?

becouse he loved us and was willing to pay the price of sinWhy was Jesus nailed to the cross?
Because no one thought of getting a ladder and some pliers to help the guy out!Why was Jesus nailed to the cross?
Because the Romans didn't have Superglue?
while Jesus walked the earth not all believed he was the messiah. for some reason some of the jews didnt believe his miracles and they felt he was blaspheming. the punishment to blasphemy was death.





Jesus knew all this would happen. for if it was not for this our sins would not be forgiven.





thank you Jesus
because superglue hadn't been invented yet?
forgot to pay his MastersCard.





now stop talking about cult myth characters as if they are real. it sounds silly!
The ultimate sacrifice.


To die for our sins, and make a way, called love, to God. The temple veil was torn, anyone could approach God.


Why?


Because he loves all of us unconditianally, from the rich, fat billionaire to the penniless, dying crook.
He took ur palce
He really got nailed good by all those Roman centurions,didn't he? They certainly gave him a good pounding, I wouldn't be suprised if he was sore for a week afterwards.
Because that was how the Romans punished their criminals. It was a common way in which thieves and murderers would be killed, and it was also a way in which other people could be scared into obeying the rules of the empire (it was a very painful death). This is where the symbolism of the cross comes from. It hadn't existed before
It was a punishment given to the worse of criminals against the Roman state.

suspicion to commit insurrection
I'm not sure. Maybe they wanted to hurt him. Do you think?
It was a common form of execution at the time.


He was repeatedly anoying some local power at be in a time when freedom of speech was not on the agenda so he got the death penalty for it.
He was the original ';What would you do for a Klondike Bar'; guy.
Because at that time it was really hard to nail into stone to crucify Him on a mountain top, so they used wood.
sedition.
to all u that say that there was no man named jesus look it up there was a jew named jesus who was put to death by Pilate and this was wrtten by the known historians of this time and these people werent even christian so why would they lie?





TACITUS-Gentile Historian





Consequently, to get rid of the report, Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judæa, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome, where all things hideous and shameful from every part of the world find their centre and become popular.


Annals 15 -44





Phlegon-Gentile Historian


And with regard to the eclipse in the time of Tiberius Caesar, in whose reign Jesus appears to have been crucified, and the great earthquakes which then took place ...” Origen Against Celsus





JOSEPHUS-Jewish Historian


';About this time appeared Jesus, a wise man (if indeed it is right to call Him man; for He was a worker of astonishing deeds, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with joy), and He drew to Himself many Jews (many also of Greeks. This was the Christ.) And when Pilate, at the denunciation of those that are foremost among us, had condemned Him to the cross, those who had first loved Him did not abandon Him (for He appeared to them alive again on the third day, the holy prophets having foretold this and countless other marvels about Him.) The tribe of Christians named after Him did not cease to this day.'; (Jewish Antiquities, 18.3.3 §63





jesus was nailed to the cross for us. but to the romans he was naled to the cross for crimes against rome
The Romans executed Jesus as the Jewish religious leaders charged him of political reasons. If the religious leaders charge him of blasphemy and if Jesus be killed on this charge, it would likely cause a public uproar, since many hold Jesus in high regard. If he is to be executed by the Jews, hed be stoned to death.





More importantly, Jesus was impaled, not only to fulfill prophecies but to redeem man from sin's slavery. During earlier times, God requires his people to offer blood (representing life) in atonement of their sins. The blood is offered to the Most holy in the tabernacle by high priests...Jesus died...after 3 days rose as a spirit to present his own blood to God himself that he paid his perfect life for that perfect life that Adam lost. -Hebrews 9:11-14
Because it was part of the torture. The nail would be driven through the wrist, which was considered part of the hand in those days, and it would crush the largest nerve in your arm. You know how bad it hurts when you hit your ';funny bone';? Imagine that nerve being crushed and feeling that pain until you die.... There is no word for how unbearable the pain is, so the phrase ';excruciating'; was invented, it literally means ';out of the cross';.
Jesus was nailed to a ';STAURUS'; an upright pole or stake. this is the original hebrew word used in the original texts.


It was NOT a ';cross'; [ a pole with cross-bar]


If it had been, then the original word would have been ';crux';.


But CRUX was not used.


Jesus was nailed with his hands and arms STRAIGHT UP. not spread out.
to give us a new life so that we could know God. Instead of Us dying for our sins He died for us. thats is why he was sent to earth.
to get chicks
He was crucified for sedition against the Roman Empire. Though there were other forms of execution, Pontius Pilate and the Pharisee leaders wanted to make an example of Jesus by executing him in public, in a humiliating and painful fashion.
Screwguns weren't invented yet!
