Jesus' mission was to come back to earth to serve as an example of how to achieve Christ consciousness. If he would have failed, we would not even know who He was. Not then anyway.

Jesus is God in the flesh,so why would he not be able to enter heaven.Your questions get more and more wierd.

It's a very good question if you ask me. +2 ;) Over time i've become more and more convinced that Jesus really was a normal man like any of us, save the fact He was pure from birth. I mean that what He did wasn't special because He was special or had mystical powers, but simply because of His relationship with God. I don't think He was strategically planning how He would go about and teach and heal, I think He just whent where God lead Him and healed and preached along the way. Just like any of us He had the bible and the relationship with God to hold on to. If God told me "jump off a building, and I'll save you", i know i'll have serious doubts, no matter what the bible or God says, and would really have to force myself to actually jump. I think it's the same with Jesus' sacrifice. He had the old testament prophecies and He had a living relationship with God, but especially with the whole deal being that His sacrifice would seperate Him from God, I think it was tremendously scary. The bible says he was sweating blood.

I'll take this to mean simply, "Would have paid the REALLY ultimate price?" The answer is, "He'd have done whatever the Father asked of him. He'd have done whatever Love demanded of him."

It is also quite hard to understand how a god with infinite powers could suffer. You are supposed to believe that in the moment where the Son is incarnated, He really incorporates the human Jesus and has just a small remembrence of His divine nature... But I think that if you are really god, you are eternal and you cannot die, and you have a very different view on things. If you were to die, you would not really have been God, would you?

ONLY GOD could suffer this sacrifice , a human could not take the sins of the world on his 'human' shoulders.only PERFECTION could.so Jesus while being PERFECT,without sin, was able as human flesh to ACCOMPLISH...and HE was the KINGDOM...so, only those of complete misunderstanding could as such and inane and totally irrelevant question of the Almighty and HIS Believers....amen...:)

He he would, because Jesus loved us more than himself, and if he didn't die on the cross than no one else would be so willing to carry the cross for our sins.

Jesus is part of the trinity(three persons in one God), which means he already knew what was going to happen in his plan.
