Christ Shows Us God’s Will
Christ Shows Us God’s Will
The Lord’s good and gracious will is revealed above all in Jesus’ Passion, when a weak and trembling Jesus prayed to His Father and then was betrayed into the hands of sinful men to die. We find Jesus in dark Gethsemane sorrowful and troubled, even to the point of His sacred heart failing right then and there. The weight of the world’s sins pressed down mightily upon Him; He fell upon His face in weakness and trembling, begging, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me.” The cup Jesus spoke of was the cup of His Father’s wrath against all the sin of the world. God’s wrath is His unmitigated anger, a furious outpouring of condemnation, the fires and torments of hell. 08/23/2023 12:00 AM
