Clips from the movie “The Passion of the Christ” with the new song from the David Crowder Band.
Wonderful visual and sound for a movie that vividly portrays the cruelty of man towards the sinless Lamb of God. He did not deserve any of it – talk about a miscarriage of justice. Yet, that is the price of our sins. “..without the shedding of blood, there is no remission.” Hebrews 9:22
His life, for my sins. I think He got a raw deal. I suppose that’s why it’s called “grace”, because I surely do not deserve it.
Reading recently from Oswald Chambers’ “My Utmost for His Highest”, I gleaned this truth:
“The modern view of the death of Jesus is that He died for our sins out of sympathy. The New Testament view is that He bore our sin not by sympathy, but by identification. He was made to be sin. Our sins are removed because of the death of Jesus, and the explanation of His death is His obedience to His Father, not
His sympathy with us. “
Paul said it himself, “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” Christ’s obedient sacrifice made us acceptable to a Holy and Righteous God.
