Determined to go through !!!

In the Garden, when the bloody sweat fell from his face, and he said, 
“If it be possible, let this cup pass from me,” 

why did he not put away that cup?
 If it had pleased him he might have applied for twelve legions of angels, and they would have come to the rescue; 

why did he not summon that celestial body-guard?
 Was it not because he had wholly surrendered himself to the service of our salvation?

 Before his judges he might have saved himself. 
Why did he not? 

One word when he was before Pilate would have broken the spell of prophecy, 
but why like a sheep before her shearers was he dumb? 

Why did he give his back to the smiters, 
and his cheeks to those that plucked off the hair?

 Why did he condescend to die, 
and actually upon the cross pour out his heart’s blood?

 It was all because he had undertaken for us, and he would go through.
