Mark 15

In Mark 15, Jesus endured physical pain, emotional pain, and immense spiritual pain as He met the cross and took on the judgment of God's wrath against sin for each and every one of us. He could have called an an army of angels at any moment and been released from the cross. But He didn't. He stayed on that cross with you in mind. He stayed on that cross with me in mind. He did it all just hoping we would humbly repent and turn from sin and selfishness and choose to receive His loving forgiveness and redemption instead. That's passionate love. When you realize the radical love of Jesus and the depth of what He for us, it's impossible to not live every day in radical, "no matter what" faith. It's impossible to not be changed from the inside out. It's impossible to not fall more and more in love with Him every second through life. Once you catch a glimpse of the great love and glory of Jesus, it changes you forever from the inside out.
