"Christ on the Cross" Mark 15:33-39
Christ on the Cross
Mark 15:33-39
And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” And some of the bystanders hearing it said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.” And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.” And Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”
We call this Good Friday. How can we call a day "good" when the Creator God of the Universe was rejected by His own created beings and brutally murdered? This is probably the most poignant example of what Paul was referring to in Romans 8:28--"All things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose." God's will is the ultimate Good, and He willed to provide us with a way of salvation from sin and restoration to Himself.
