His Love

Many people can not handle the grossness and pain when thinking of death by crucifixion. As a child, I refused to allow the inhumaness of such a scene seep into my consciousness. As an adult, I still can't wrap my brain around it. But one thing I can hold onto is the immeasurable love of Jesus that He would allow such a thing to happen that I might be free from death's judgement. It is one thing for something painful to happen to you, it is quite another to willingly walk into such a horrific experience. Why? Why did He do it? Wasn't there another way to buy our freedom? God is so creative why couldn't He have imagined a less extreme payment for sin?
In our world we can buy our way out of any situation ...or sue our way into money...or lie our way into respectability. But in God's world there is only purity and truth. Therefore only the most extreme price would cover so grievious a crime.
To all Christians out there...to all rebels...to the unsure...to the depressed and broken...to the mighty...to the intellectual...to all people...God had a plan to wipe the sin out of our lives. The plan was, is, and always will be Jesus, His only Son. Gardenfire has relayed this message in such a way that there can be no misunderstanding.
