Incendiary Power Of The Resurrection

“For the joy set out for him he endured the cross, disregarding its shame” The humiliation of being stripped and ridiculed. The lacerations and the scourging. The unbearable pain from the nails. He endured this for hours even though at any moment He could have called for His Father to rescue Him. Instead, He chose the pain of it all “for the joy set out for him.” “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full” John 15:11
