GOOD FRIDAY REFLECTIONS

As I reflect about good Friday and how Jesus died on the cross, one thing really sticks in my mind. Our pastor said: Jesus died on the cross because crucifiction is the only death horrible enough for the wrath of God.......not his exact words but pretty close. I read a medical account of the crucifiction and it was really sad to see what he went through! I didn't cry but it made me think even more about what it means. God did that to his Son and it had to be horrible and inhumane because sin is just as horrible and evil. I sometimes wonder if Jesus felt ALL of the sin literally on his shoulders and that is A LOT of sin...every sin before, then, now and to come. I wonder about some hard un-answerable questions. But I don't have to question that Jesus DID rise again on the third day and that's why we celebrate Easter!
