"They spit in his face and struck him, and some slapped him," Matthew 26:67.
The cost to Jesus for our redemption. Judged worthy of death. Why worthy? because he said he could destroy God's temple and rebuild it in three days. Why worthy? because he made the good confession to be the Christ, Son of God. Why worthy? because he insulted God. And so he deserved to die. Jesus paid a price with the body that God prepared for him to live.
We visit with a brother or sister today sorrowful for our sin in this darkened world. And mourning together we give thanks for God's love expressing such humility.
