Episode 200: Audio Library - The Mount Everest of Scripture and of Time (Chapter 7)

In this deeply moving chapter, J. M. Davies draws the listener into the heart of Calvary to behold both the humiliation and glory of Christ in His death. What the world saw as defeat, Heaven declares as triumph.Davies paints a vivid contrast: the Man of Sorrows, despised and rejected, bearing the curse and shame of the Cross—yet, in that very suffering, displaying the splendor of divine love and obedience. The lowest point of His humiliation becomes the highest revelation of His glory.From Gethsemane’s agony to Golgotha’s cry, Davies shows that every step downward was also a step upward in eternal purpose. The Cross was Christ’s throne; the thorns His crown. Through His willing descent, He exalted the righteousness of God and opened the way for sinners to share in His victory.This chapter invites listeners to contemplate the mystery of glory hidden in suffering—the radiant beauty of the Savior who humbled Himself unto death, and through that humility, secured everlasting glory.
