Christ's suffering refers to the physical and emotional pain that Jesus Christ endured during his crucifixion and death on the cross. This suffering is a central aspect of Christian theology and is believed to have been necessary for the redemption and salvation of humanity. Christians believe that through his suffering, Jesus took on the sins of the world and offered himself as a sacrifice to atone for the sins of humanity. This belief is central to the Christian understanding of the significance of Jesus' death and resurrection.
