13 And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe. 14 For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators of God’s churches in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus: You suffered from your own people the same things those churches suffered from the Jews 15 who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone

Jesus could have prevented them from killing him.

In fact, several times they tried to stone him and he escaped from them.

All things are in God's control.

So yes, Jesus freely gave of Himself, but that does not mean that the people who plotted His death and executed Him were without guilt.

It isn't one or the other. It is both.

He was murdered and He gave His life freely.

So like so many miracles, God turns something bad into something good.

Did he die of natural causes?

Was he is some type of an accident?

Did he have a fatal illness or disease?

Did he die of old age?

Did he commit suicide?

Or was he falsely accused, and executed when he never did anything wrong in his entire life?

Was he the perfect and blameless sacrifice for our sins?
