Chew on This
August 17, 2009 Leave a Comment
The Jews insisted, ‘We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.’ (John 19:7 NIV)
If Jesus faced no persecution for His time here on earth, he would have still been executed based on a law of the time. If anyone claimed they were the Son of God, such a claim sentenced them to death.
Jesus’ testimony brought Him to death because of a law. This fulfilled God’s plan for Jesus being here; a plan which is greater than the law.
It was always all or nothing for Jesus.
Tonight, I applied a question to my life that I would like to ask you: At what cost will you testify that Jesus is the Son of God, and Lord?
I hope you have strong teeth, because that’s a lot to chew on.
