Christ's Passion
He died for you...
Will you live for Him?
It was here that He took our sins. It was here that He felt the seperation from His Father. It was here He died so that we may live. And it's here, that we slap His face everytime we think we can do it on our own.
Ouch We slap Him in the face not just when we do something "wrong," but also "everytime we think we can do it on our own." I'll quote Stephanie -- "sobering thought."
I agree, it's a very sobering thought. He bore the weight and the guilt of all our sins, and everytime we are disobedient to the Word, we are pressing down that much harder upon His shoulders. We are making Him feel that much more guilt. Would you do that to someone you love--to your brother?
I should make us feel ashamed and humbled, but it should also make us feel extremely thankful that He was willing to go to such lengths for us! What AMAZING LOVE!!
Sobering thought.
