Save Yourself

In chapter 15 in the book of Mark, we hear the story of when Jesus is taken to the cross.

He is challenged over and over again to save Himself.

He's insulted, abused, stripped naked, beaten, mocked… And the final insult? People cry out, “Save yourself!” And He could, of course He could. But He didn't, because He was called to save us. You and me and the entire world.

We daily live to save ourselves. To protect our comfort, our future, our health. But one day, we won't be able to save ourselves. One day we’ll come face to face with death, with eternity, with loss, and we’ll need a savior.

What kind of God is this? That didn't save Himself, but came to save us?

Scripture Reference: Mark 15:30-32
