Why is Jesus most often deemed to stuggle with his own cross when vs 21 says that "Simon the Cyrenian ... to bear his cross"?

Is there some other place in the bible saying Jesus struggled with his cross?

Thanks for pointing this out. I said yes! So many traditions ignore what the bible actually says.

Hi Richard Times haven't changed much Look at Mathew 15:1-9 when men take Gods word and package

it the way they want or think then they say do or practice this or that to get closer to God, that is taking what God said

originally and making it of no effect! Religion is looking righteous, christianity is walking by the righteousness of

God in Christ Jesus. Religion clean on outside Christianity clean by His Gods Spirit inside!

Hi Joe You are correct when you follow the time line by the time between the soldiers beating him and sending him to Golgotha he was so pulverised he could not carry the crucifix, they compelled or made simon of cyrene to carry drag it. The cross he Jesus Christ bore was our iniquities and sins. Again mans tradition changes Gods Word. This man was so beaten you did not want to look at Him and he still did not break fellowship, think about that during a bad day.
