Crucifixation of Jesus was an astounding act of obedience. It's a demonstration of Love, an act of greatness, it's the greatest form of Love. It's looking at the Joy of Salvation of humankind who look at him, on the cross. The King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He is kind and merciful. Ever wondered why he has not punished for our wrongdoings? Because he gives is choice to choose him as Savior and Lord. To show us that there is no other way for the Salvation of humankind.
The Bible says so....
Jesus has warned about making corrections, repentance and Salvation:
Jesus gives us an idea about how his Judgement will be.
Mat 5:25
"Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.
Cross is a place where I see God's anger being Judgemental and mercy on being Crucified. He offers this great sacrifice for us to know how much he loves us than how much he can Judge, of course he will Judge. But His Love is greater than the Judgement, that is why Paul could say "Grace abounds".
The Bible says so....
1 Timothy 2:4-6 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)
4 God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth. 5 There is only one God, and there is only one way that people can reach God. That way is through Christ Jesus, who as a man 6 gave himself to pay for everyone to be free. This is the message that was given to us at just the right time.

he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. |
So, there are more than one reason for why God allows people choices. Ex: To choose the Land between Abraham and Lot. Lot thought he choose the right one, but we know that city he ended up staying was burnt.
