Remembering the death

Father into your hands I commit my spirit. Luke 23:46

All the events leading up to Jesus crucifixion and burial was one of denial, betrayal, torture, shame… Jesus died for the sins of those who laughed at him, taunted him and rejected him.
Man, I do not know him… Prophesy! Who hit you?… He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God… If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself…

Even in the midst of the worst taunting, the pouring of God’s wrath on the sins of the world… All to redeem God’s people to himself. Jesus took the punishment, took the shame, took the infinite wrath of a HOLY GOD to make us right with the Father.

Thank you Jesus for this great sacrifice, for this great rescue. Thank you our true Elder brother. Thank you… lover of my soul.

We love you.
