“From the Mouths of Fools”

From the mouths of fools.  But…they spoke eternal truth.

It happened at the place of crucifixion.  The chief priests and teachers of the law heaped insults on Jesus.  “He saved others…but he can’t save himself.”

But…no truth greater than this has ever been spoken.

Jesus had a choice – save Himself or others.  He chose others.  And…in doing so…He became the Savior of the world.

Utter defeat – that’s how it seemed.  Jesus appeared powerless…weak…an object of shame and disgrace.

Not so.  For…it was in this moment every demonic force was defeated…the great redemptive mission was accomplished…and our eternal salvation was purchased.

 “He saved others…but he can’t save himself.”

 From the mouths of fools…but they spoke eternal truth.
