This is the time for remembrance

I will never forget the love that compelled Father God to come to earth in the face of Yeshua (Jesus) to undo the fall of Adam and Eve because of His relentless love for me and you.

As I write to you, I’m nestled under the covers of my bedsheets pondering the extravagant love of God.

Romans 5:8 states “But Christ proved God’s passionate love for us by dying in our place while we were still lost and ungodly!” (The Passion Translation)

“For God made the only one who did not know sin to become sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God through our union with him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

Remembrance

“Just as condemnation came upon all people through one transgression, so through one righteous act of Jesus’ sacrifice, the perfect righteousness that makes us right with God and leads us to a victorious life is now available to all. One man’s disobedience opened the door for all humanity to become sinners. So also one man’s obedience opened the door for many to be made perfectly right with God and acceptable to him.” Romans 5:18-19

“So he released Barabbas to the people. He ordered that Jesus be beaten with a whip of leather straps embedded with metal, and afterward be crucified. Then the guards took him into their military compound, where a detachment of nearly six hundred soldiers surrounded him.

They stripped off his clothing and placed a scarlet robe on him to make fun of him. Then they braided a crown of thorns and forcefully shoved it onto his head. After placing a reed staff in his right hand, they knelt down before him and mocked him, saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!”  Then they spat in his face and took the reed staff from his hand and hit him repeatedly on his head, driving the crown of thorns deeper. When they finished ridiculing him, they took off the scarlet robe and put his own clothes back on him, and led him away to be crucified. And as they came out of the city, they stopped an African man named Simon, from Libya, and compelled him to carry the cross for Jesus.

The Crucifixion

They brought Jesus to Golgotha, which means “Skull Hill.” And there the soldiers offered him a mild painkiller, a drink of wine mixed with gall, but after tasting it, he refused to drink it.

Then they crucified Jesus, nailing his hands and feet to the cross. The soldiers divided his clothing among themselves by rolling dice to see who would win them.”

I will never forget the love that compelled Father God to come to earth in the face of Yeshua (Jesus) to undo the fall of Adam and Eve because of His relentless love for me and you.

Will you?
