THE LIFE, DEATH, AND RESURRECTION OF CHRIST JESUS

THE LIFE, DEATH, AND RESURRECTION OF CHRIST JESUS 

Habakkuk 1:13 

Thou Art Of Purer Eyes Than To Behold Evil, And Canst Not Look On Iniquity: Wherefore Lookest Thou Upon Them That Deal Treacherously, And Holdest Thy Tongue When The Wicked Devoureth The Man That Is More Righteous Than He?

Matthew 27:45-46 

Now From The Sixth Hour There Was Darkness Over All The Land Unto The Ninth Hour. And About The Ninth Hour Jesus Cried With A Loud Voice, Saying, Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthani? That Is To Say, My God, My God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?

Acts 2:27,31-32,38 

Because Thou Wilt Not Leave My Soul In Hell, Neither Wilt Thou Suffer Thine Holy One To See Corruption. 

[31] He Seeing This Before Spake Of The Resurrection Of Christ, That His Soul Was Not Left In Hell, Neither His Flesh Did See Corruption. This Jesus Hath God Raised Up, Whereof We All Are Witnesses. 

John 10:17-18 

Therefore Doth My Father Love Me, Because I Lay Down My Life, That I Might Take It Again. No Man Taketh It From Me, But I Lay It Down Of Myself. I Have Power To Lay It Down, And I Have Power To Take It Again. This Commandment Have I Received Of My Father.

2 Corinthians 5:21 

For He Hath Made Him To Be Sin For Us, Who Knew No Sin; That We Might Be Made The Righteousness Of God In Him.

Isaiah 52:14 

As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:

Psalm 22:14-18 

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

Isaiah 53:5,9-12

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 

[9] And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Mark 15:15-20 

And So Pilate, Willing To Content The People, Released Barabbas Unto Them, And Delivered Jesus, When He Had Scourged Him, To Be Crucified. And The Soldiers Led Him Away Into The Hall, Called Praetorium; And They Call Together The Whole Band. And They Clothed Him With Purple, And Platted A Crown Of Thorns, And Put It About His Head, And Began To Salute Him, Hail, King Of The Jews! And They Smote Him On The Head With A Reed, And Did Spit Upon Him, And Bowing Their Knees Worshipped Him. And When They Had Mocked Him, They Took Off The Purple From Him, And Put His Own Clothes On Him, And Led Him Out To Crucify Him.

Romans 4:25

Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

So many Christians have no idea of what Jesus Christ came for, or what He went through. So many don't know why Jesus Christ came to be The Sacrifice. You can ask what did He accomplish and how, and they will have no answer. Why? We see pictures of a small trickle of blood on His forehead and of Him on a cross, but we have no real concept of the torture, the humiliation, the vile treatment, and the complete degradation that He experienced.

He was separated from His Righteousness for us to receive Salvation. He took our sins and gave us His Righteousness. He was beaten so badly that they saw His bones out of joint. They spit on Him and pulled His beard. They hit Him in His face and said for Him to prophecy who hit Him. They stripped Him naked in front of the army and made Him put on a purple robe. He was tortured in hell to pay for all of our sins. He Was Raised Again To Prove That He Is The Son Of The Only Living God. Hallelujah! Glory To God In The Highest! 

HE DID ALL OF THAT FOR US TO LIVE A SPIRIT-FILLED AND SPIRIT-FILLED LED LIFE ON THIS EARTH AND TO HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. IF HE COULD GO THROUGH THAT, CAN YOU LIVE FOR HIS HONOR AND GLORY?
