How do we know Jesus' sacrifice fulfills God's purpose?

The scripture teaches that all events surrounding Jesus’ crucifixion, including Pilate’s actions and the mockery, were part of God's sovereign plan for redemption. Despite Pilate's malicious intent, God used his actions to openly declare the kingship of Christ in a public and powerful way. Romans 8:28 assures us that God works all things together for good, which includes the crucifixion of Christ. It demonstrates God's supreme authority; even the imperfections of humanity serve His ultimate plan of salvation. The prophecy of Isaiah beforehand set the groundwork for Christ, emphasizing that He was to be a suffering servant and was always intended to be our Savior (Isaiah 53).
