Did Jesus die as a God or man?

Jesus actually went through the harrowing road to Calvary and Crucifixion as a man not God.

This is firstly on the basis of the truth that God doesn’t die. In fact, Jesus lost his God status the moment he took the sin of the world upon himself.

With the eyes of God the Father being too holy to behold iniquity, you can then understand Jesus’s cry in Matthew 27:46, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Of course, if Jesus had faced the Cross as the God that he is, satan, the Jewish authorities, Pontius Pilate and the Roman soldiers wouldn’t have been able to handle or corner him!

In Christianity, Jesus is a GOD-MAN, Jesus the Son of God took on human form. His death is viewed as a sacrifice for the sins of humanity, a demonstration of God's love and a means of reconciling us with God. Now Jesus did not die as GOD.
If GOD THE FATHER WANTS HIS SON TO DIE AS GOD, HIS DEATH WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE BECAUSE HE(JESUS) IS SUPREME AND IMMORTAL.
That's why Jesus came to die for us in the HUMAN FORM. When he was going through the pains and sufferings inflicted on him by the Jews,Roman authorities, he cried out with a loud voice because the pain is much for him to bear.
If JESUS died as a GOD, He would have saved himself from dieing and it would be impossible for them to kill him but because he is a MAN, he was helpless and unable to save himself rather he cried to his father to help and save him. (Matthew 27:46, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?).
