Reflections Along the Jesus Way

March 31, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“Why Did Jesus Die?
- He was put to death by religious and political leaders because he opposed the politics and the accepted traditions and culture of religion of his day.
- Jesus was rejected by human government and human religion then – as he still is today!
- He was despised and rejected of men – because he offered God’s love and God’s grace. As strange as it might seem, humanity cannot abide God’s love (Romans 8:7). Humanity wants to go its own way, serving its own masters, customs and traditions. People are violently opposed to God giving something they are naturally inclined to believe they can and should earn by virtue of their own efforts, by the proverbial sweat of their brow.”
