LET US CONSIDER THE VOLUNTARY NATURE OF THE LORD'S ACTIONS WHILE WALKING THE ROAD TO CALVARY. LOVE MOTIVATED HIM. HUMILITY BROUGHT HIM OBEDIENCE UNTO DEATH.EVEN THE DEATH OF THE CROSS.
BUT HOW HEARTBROKEN HE MUST HAVE BEEN BECAUSE OF THE TREACHERY OF JUDAS .
MOST OF OUR TROUBLES COME UNEXPECTED. TEMPTATIONS, HIDDEN SNARES , OFTEN TAKE US UNAWARES.
BUT THE LORD JESUS KNEW WHAT WAS FACING HIM.
RIGHTEOUNESS LOOKED INTO THE CUP AND SAW THE DREGS OF
UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.
HOLINESS PEERED AT SINFULNESS IN THAT CUP
AND YET IN LOVE JESUS MARCHED ON.
DESPITE DECEIT BY JUDAS, DENIAL OF HIS RIGHTS BY THE PHARISEES
DESPISEMENT BY THE ROMANS
DISAVOWAL BY SIMON PETER
DESERTION BY THE DISCIPLES
THE LORD JESUS SO LOVED US THAT HE WAS WILLING TO GO ON
AND SUFFER , BLEED AND DIE AS A RANSOM FOR ALL
JOHN 18: 1-14
