Why did Jesus have to die?
La Bible enseigne que Jésus est mort pour payer le châtiment du péché humain, afin que Dieu puisse pardonner avec justice et offrir la vie éternelle. Sa mort fut le lieu coûteux où l'amour et la justice de Dieu se sont rencontrés.

Sin carries real consequences — separation from God and death. A holy God cannot simply ignore wrongdoing. Yet God also loves the people he made and wanted to rescue them.
The cross is where both meet. Jesus, the sinless Son, took the penalty in our place: “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son.” His death satisfied justice while opening the way for mercy.
His resurrection three days later showed that the payment was accepted and death was defeated. Because Jesus died and rose, forgiveness and eternal life can be offered freely to all who believe.
