The Crucifixion was the method by which Jesus Christ was executed—by being nailed to a wooden cross. It is central to the Christian faith because through it, Jesus willingly died to take the punishment for the sins of the world.
1. Fulfillment of Prophecy
The Crucifixion was not a random event; it fulfilled Old Testament prophecies about the suffering of the Messiah.
Isaiah 53:5 (NIV): "But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities..." যিশাইয় ৫৩:৫ (BBS): "কিন্তু তিনি আমাদের অপরাধের জন্য বিদ্ধ হয়েছিলেন, আমাদের দোষের জন্য চূর্ণ হয়েছিলেন..."
2. Jesus' Willing Sacrifice
Jesus chose to lay down His life.
John 10:17–18 (NIV): "I lay down my life—only to take it up again... No one takes it from me..." যোহন ১০:১৭–১৮ (BBS): "আমি নিজের প্রাণ দিই... কেউ তা আমার কাছ থেকে কেড়ে নেয় না..."
3. The Crucifixion Event
Jesus was mocked, beaten, and crucified between two criminals.
Luke 23:33 (NIV): "They crucified him there, along with the criminals..." লূক ২৩:৩৩ (BBS): "তারা... তাঁকে ক্রুশে বিদ্ধ করল, এবং দুই অপরাধীকেও..."
4. Jesus Took Our Sin
He became a substitute, taking the penalty we deserved.
2 Corinthians 5:21 (NIV): "God made him who had no sin to be sin for us..." ২ করিন্থীয় ৫:২১ (BBS): "যিনি পাপ জানতেন না, তাঁকেই ঈশ্বর আমাদের পাপের জন্য পাপ করলেন..."
5. His Last Words
His final words signified the completion of His mission.
John 19:30 (NIV): "Jesus said, 'It is finished.'..." যোহন ১৯:৩০ (BBS): "যীশু বললেন, ‘সম্পন্ন হয়েছে।’..."
6. Result of the Crucifixion
Through the Cross, we receive:
Forgiveness of sins Colossians 1:14 – “In Him we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.”
Peace with God Romans 5:1 – “Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God...”
Eternal life John 3:16 – “Whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
