What does the Bible say about Christ's must to suffer and die?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible reveals that Christ's suffering, death, and resurrection were foreordained by God for the salvation of sinners.

The Scriptures teach that Jesus must suffer and die to fulfill the prophecies and requirements of God’s justice. In Matthew 16, Jesus clearly states that He must go to Jerusalem to suffer many things at the hands of the religious leaders and ultimately be killed. This is not merely a tragic fate but a divine necessity rooted in the plan of redemption established before the foundation of the world (Isaiah 53). Therefore, His suffering is essential to satisfy God's wrath against sin and is a fulfillment of biblical prophecy.
