He willingly came down from His Heavenly Throne among sinners knowing what was to happen, He planned it. He was beaten to oblivion, carried His cross among the mockers, laid down on it and stretched His arms and legs out, willingly, not because of what He had done, but for what we had done. There is no other way to ascend to His kingdom, except through Him alone. He is the door, the way, the truth and the life. There is no other way to ascend without Him. Everything else is a deception. A fake. A fraud. A mockery. A sin against Him, the very reason He came and walked among men in the first place.
