I think it is also important to note that it was almost a "transfer of sin" as the weight of all of man's sin was on Christ at a moment, that was the real suffering I think, and price He paid for us all. Great post! I thought this was a terribly accurate depiction of Christ’s suffering at the Cross and how it relates to us as humans. I think it is also important to note that it was almost a “transfer of sin” as the weight of all of man’s sin was on Christ at a moment, that was the real suffering I think, and price He paid for us all. Great post!

I think of Mary...watching her son die such a horrible death. As a mother of boys, I can honestly say that I wouldn't sacrifice my son for anyone else. I tried watching The Passion of the Christ and when Mary runs to him as he is struggling to carry his cross, I wept. I had to turn it off before he was crucified. I couldn't watch. And that was all make up and special effects! I cannot imagine being there, in person, watching it and wondering what to do next? I don't think I could leave him. My takeaways from your post are these; Sin = Darkness. Suffering. Death Humanness = Regret. Shame. Helplessness Redemption = Gratitude. Hope. Love Misti,
