How do we know Christ's suffering is an example for us?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's suffering is a model for us because He endured without sinning and entrusted Himself to God.

The assertion that Christ's suffering is an example for us is grounded in 1 Peter 2:21-23. Christ did no sin, nor was deceit found in His mouth, yet He faced reviling and suffering unjustly. In His response to such adversities, He did not retaliate but committed His cause to God, who judges righteously. This demonstrates the virtue of entrusting oneself to God’s will amidst suffering. We are called to follow His example and endure unjust suffering with the same grace, showing others the transforming power of the Gospel in our lives.
