Luke 9:44
March 27
Luke 9:44
Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
Jesus announces to His disciples His arrest and the events leading to the cross of Calvary. HE WAS NOT TAKEN BY SURPRISE. In the counsels of eternity past, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit had planned and agreed on the sacrificial sufferings of Jesus as THE ONLY WAY that humanity’s debt of evil, sin and rebellion could be atoned for. It was the only way, and Jesus came willingly, telling the Father, “I delight to do thy will 0 LORD.” The next verse tells us that the disciples did not understand this at all. Isn’t that the way of the world? The LORD of glory has paid the price for our sins, and at this moment is preparing an eternity of bliss of which we cannot even form any idea, and these remarkable, wonderful truths ARE MET WITH A YAWN, a blank face, or even anger; but know this: YOUR ETERNAL DESTINY is decided by what you do with Jesus.
