How do we know that Christ must die?

Answered in 1 source

Christ must die to fulfill the scriptures and to satisfy God's justice.

Scripture explicitly states that Christ must die, as seen in Isaiah 53:7, where His death is necessary to fulfill the prophecies about the suffering Messiah. The justice of God demands that sin be dealt with directly, and since Christ bore the sins of His people, His death was essential. Through His crucifixion, He became the ultimate sacrifice, allowing believers to be reconciled to God and demonstrating God's great love and justice harmonized in the act of atonement.
Scripture References: Isaiah 53:7, Ezekiel 18:20, 1 Peter 3:18
