Title: Why Did Jesus' Death Need to Be So Painful
Topic: First Coming
Summary: We explore this question, wondering why Jesus didn't die a completely different kind of death, or if the crucifixion was necessary, why not do or take something to dull the pain? The answer is that the experience strengthened Jesus tremendously. It was the ultimate test, and He passed.

10
Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
11
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
13
Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
