"Even the Son of Man did not come to be served. Instead, he came to serve others. He came to give his life as the price for setting many people free." -Mark 10:45
"He suffered the things we should have suffered. He took on Himself the pain that should have been ours. But we thought God was punishing him. We thought God was wounding Him and making Him suffer.
But the servant was pierced because we had sinned. He was crushed because we had done what was evil. He was punished to make us whole again. His wounds have healed us.
All of us are like sheep. We have wandered away form God. All of us have turned to our own way. And the Lord has placed on His servant the sins of all of us." -Isaiah 53:4-6
This is sort of advance notification from God about what He was going to do in the future. This was written about 700 years before Jesus' time. But it describes what Jesus would do for us!!
Jesus gave His life to pay for our mess ups!
