—John 19:16-20
by: Grace Crouch.
There is no glory here! Jesus received no special treatment. He was to carry his own cross and die with two other men.
As we read yesterday in Isaiah 53:9, "He was assigned a grave with the wicked." As horrible a death as this was, it was the Lord's will. In order to fulfill the prophecy and to redeem us, he became the propitiation for our sins.
