All through the Gospel of John we have been hearing about Jesus’ coming glorification. In John 19:16-42, we finally reach it and discover that it took place on the cross. In this familiar account, the author of the gospel included fascinating details that point us to the meaning of the death of Christ and the response it requires from us.
While David used desperate and even deceptive means of escape, God provided for him because of his grace and faithfulness.
Paul continued to praise God for the benefits believers receive because of the sacrifice of the Son.
With parables and warnings, Jesus told everyone in his day and ours to be ready for the coming of the Son of Man.
