How does a person confess that they have been saved by Jesus Christ and then live a life contrary to His teaching? Not only did Jesus suffer extreme torture and Crucifixion but he drank the cup of wrath that the Father poured out on His Son instead of on us. The Just for the unjust (1Peter 3:18). We are guilty and Jesus paid our fine so that we can be forgiven.
As you watch this short video please understand Jesus didn't sweat blood in the garden (Luke 22:44) because of the thought of the horrible, unspeakable torture and Crucifixion that he would face but because He would be facing the wrath of His Father who wouldn't be able to look at Him because He would take our sins upon Himself. I hope this encourages you to ponder Christ's love for us and what He truly endured on our behalf.
