How is that in just a matter of days, a celebratory parade of palm-waving and hallelujahs could turn to angry mobs crying for Jesus' death? How is that one of Jesus' own disciples could sell him out; and another would deny even knowing him - not once, but three times? How is it that in spite of great cruelty and injustice, Jesus in his final moments of a tortuous death would still pray for his tormentors: “Father, forgive them; they don’t know what they’re doing.” How is it, the God's son would give his very life for us, refusing to save himself, so that you and I might be saved? |
