By Enduring the Agony of the Cross Jesus Granted Us Eternal Joy and Happiness ㅡ
“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” (1 Corinthians 2:2).
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”
(Psalm 16:11)
He(Jesus Christ) came forth from heaven to earth, and while on earth, He bore the curse of God as surety for the fallen race.
He was not obliged to do this. He chose to bear the wrath of God, which man had incurred.
He chose to endure the cruel mockings, the deridings, the scourging, and the crucifixion.... “He ... became obedient unto death.”
Christ was not insensible to ignominy and disgrace. He felt it all most bitterly.
He felt it as much more deeply and acutely than we can feel suffering, as His nature was more exalted and pure and holy than that of the sinful race for whom He suffered.
He was the Majesty of heaven, He was equal with the Father, He was the Commander of the hosts of angels, yet He died for man the death that was, above all others, clothed with ignominy and reproach.
The gifts of Him who has all power in heaven and in earth are in store for the children of God.
Gifts so precious that they come to us through the costly sacrifice of the Redeemer’s blood, gifts that will satisfy the deepest craving of the heart, gifts lasting as eternity, will be received and enjoyed by all who will come to God as little children.
(That I May Know Him 339)
