"It was meant to show Christ's humility. It was planned to occur that way by our Sovereign Lord..."

So are you also saying by implication that God planned Christ's crucifiction? I never heard that God had planned anything for Christ. I don't know anyone that believes that either. As a human on earth, Jesus was free to do what He pleased and chose to do His Father's will. I don't believe God pre-programmed Jesus for anything.

"As a human on earth, Jesus was free to do what He pleased and chose to do His Father's will."

So, that made God dependent upon Jesus to fulfill His will?

Does that make Christ's crucifixion prophesy in the Old Testament completely invalid?

What Bible are you reading?

"As a human on earth, Jesus was free to do what He pleased and chose to do His Father's will."

Jesus asked for the Cup to be removed from His lips, but then followed by saying, "nevertheless - Thy will be done, not mine."

You're confusing free will with free ability, as well as trying to separate Jesus from God. Jesus WAS God incarnate on earth...they weren't separate people like you and I are separate people.
