It may be thought that what I put was part of the story of Jesus regardless of who believes or not.
Do you think in the story Jesus didn't choose to die ?
Pretty sure there's a verse saying he didn't. He was obedient, but not willing. The whole "let this cup pass from me" verse.
Chad32,
You might consider that in the story he was expressing his humanity by what he said as evidence he was going through what a human may go through in such circumstances, not wanting to suffer but willing to do what was necessary for the sake of what God wanted for the benefit of mankind.
