Crucified for false accusation, how did Jesus' death turned into a redemptive sacrifice for our sins?

How did Jesus' death on the cross turned out to become a sacrifice to redeem sins?

While the Roman execution was taking place, there were other elements not as noticeable.

  1. Jesus allowed himself to be put to death.

John 10:17-18 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

  1. The Father place the sins of the world on him.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

1 John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

If you look at the crucifixion and sees only a Roman execution, you miss the most important thing in the history of the world.
