The common reason given is atonement for our sin. Atonement is a reparation for an injury or a wrong. Atonement is right (Romans 5:11), but there is more.
God put us in this world. He lets us struggle with sin, death, and pain.

But because now that all my sins have been done to God, that gives Him the moral authority to judge.
