Who do you think He is?
Who do you think He is? He died this day, murdered by his own people. The people who just a while ago were declaring Him as the "King of Israel". Unbelievable right? How can you one day claim someone to be your king, and a week later decide to kill him using the most horrific, painful, inhumane method ever conceived. Even the Roman, Pilate, didn't know what to do. So different people saw Him differently. A prophet, a king, a rabbi, a teacher, a friend, someone to be tortured and killed? Who do you think He is?
By His own admission, he is the Son of God. Son of the Most High, the Almighty. Either He is completely insane in claiming such a thing, or He really is the Son. What are you going to do about it? Jesus died this day, and 2000 years later, we still remember it. He was blameless, even by the admission of the Romans who nailed him to the cross. Why do you think He did it? He did it for you and I. God himself chose to die on that cross, so that the debt of sin could be paid, that we wouldn't have suffer eternal damnation. Why? Because He loves us, each and everyone of us, even the Romans hammering the rusty nails into his body, even the the Jews laughing and mocking him as he was raised on the cross, even the soldier that pierced his side with a spear. That's why he allowed himself to be murdered, to suffer on the cross.
Now what are you doing to do about it?
John 3:16
16“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. 19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed."
