No Greater Love, Crucifixion of Jesus Detail

Detail of painting \\\"It Is Accomplished.\\\" Jesus told his disciples, \\\"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.\\\" Who can possibly understand this great mystery? Christ bore the weight of every sin that every one of us has ever committed. All of us must face the cross of Christ. Sheer gratitude demands it. Each one must decide if he was truly the Son of God. We don\\\'t have to understand this great love and sacrifice, but only believe in him, receive his great gift, and worship him in love as the Son of the living God, the Christ and Savior of all! by Linda Lovett
