Like, I feel like everyone has an idea of who he is. Sculpted or jagged and rough. But like.... What did Jesus Want? Is that really what we should be focused on? He is the way, so wanting what he wanted must be at least a facet?

Jesus lived a sinless life, which kept the law given to the Jewish people. He died as a sacrifice, a perfect lamb without spot or blemish, once for all the sins of the world and a salvation (saving us from the wrath of God) to all who will believe because his righteousness is ours since he did this for us. It is a free gift, but we have to believe he did it and that it is ours. We can't earn it. The physical representation is baptism into his name - combining water and the word of god to wash away our sins. As we go through life we are to rely on this baptism and repent (return to the forgiveness it offers), turning away from sin and remembering what Jesus has done for us.
