How do we know that Jesus submitted to God's will?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus demonstrated submission to God's will by willingly accepting the cup given to Him by His Father.

In John 18:11, Jesus exemplifies His perfect obedience and submission to the Father's will by asking, 'Shall I not drink it?' This act signifies His acceptance of the suffering He was to endure, reflecting His commitment to fulfill the Father's redemptive plan. He recognizes the cup, which symbolizes the wrath and judgment due for sin, as a divine appointment. His submission showcases that His ministry on earth was fundamentally about doing the will of the Father, illustrating that He completely embraced the path laid out for Him in the eternal covenant of grace.
