- our Lord - who bore our sins - who died for us... who can compare to this great act of love?

The path was filled with stones and sweat. Voices rise into the air as a King bearing a Cross traversed the road of suffering. In another few hours His fate would be sealed and His work be done.
It was an agreement made before the beginning of time--between Him, His Daddy, and the Holy Ghost--the Trinity.
They agreed Jesus would have to die. For sins He never committed. For the sins of man.
On the hills of Calvary a Cross stood high. One Man on the Cross. And the words proclaim Him as King. The soldier picked up his whip and mallet. One swing. And another. Blood streaked His body and sweat filled His brows. The body of the One Who was untainted was slapped bloody. Somewhere, someone begins to read the sins that were committed. Sins that must be punished. By death.
By death, and death He chose.
"Jesus of Nazareth! You have been found guilty of robbery, slander, and murder. You have spread lies and told gossips. You have lusted, cheated, and You are impure! You have stolen. Envied. Hated. You have cursed these who loved You and fornicated. You blaspheme. You have run away from Your responsibilities. You have ignored the unfortunate and embezzled Your friends. You are a coward, You have looked down on others, You have fought and argued, You failed to control Your hot temper. You are a pitiful drunkard, a drug addict, illegal peddler and rape virgins. You are a pedophile, You are incestuous! You worship demons and torture humans and animals. You break up families and relationships, You act selfish and You take bribes! You are corrupt! You blow up cars and kill innocent lives! You founded false religions, started cults and enslaved my people. You are a terroist! A deviant! A fanatic! You even brag about it!"
No, Jesus did not commit all these. But He took all the blame. Blame for the sins of the world.
He would be responsible.
"Father, Father, why have You forsaken Me?"
The Father could only watch as the last drop of Blood flowed from His beloved Son's heart. And the last breath of life escaped His lungs. The body hung limp on the rugged wooden Cross. The Cross whose wood came from the seed which the Father created. The Creation of the God Who gave His only Son to die for us so we may live.
As the King hung limply, a whisper escapes...
It is done.
Mankind is saved.
