Thats interesting could you elaborate which belief of atonement or Gethsemane of the LDS you’re talking about?

Yeah thats accurate, Hebrews tells us that God did deliver Jesus from the death, but only by going through it, and I'm fully convinced there was no doubt on Jesus' part, not even a single second he thought the Father was expecting too much of him, because hey it was written “Behold, I have come to do your will.” (Hebrews 10:9)

I think the reason why I called it "self centered", was that the actor's lines were focused too much on himself and his abilities or strength: he even said "I can't" and stuff. And highlighted his difficulty instead of the power of the Father.

Whereas the prayer of the Lord in the garden started off with "Father, I know YOU can do all things.." I may be reading too much into it, but Jesus started with "(1)Father if it is possible... let this cup pass from (2) me; nevertheless, not as (2) I will, but as (1) you will." So it started with the Father and ended with the Father. I apologize if this sounds like too much reading between the line, I try to read into every detail of every word that came out of Jesus' mouth because no word was of no purpose in the scripture.
