Adrian Rogers said that the only man made thing in
heaven will be the scars in the hands, feet, and side of Jesus. What better way to die than in the perfect
hands of the Father and now for us, in Jesus.
The mouth that spoke as never a mere man spoke became
silent. The heart that never beat except in love was stilled. JESUS DIED! But
as we read in the Scriptures a moment ago, before He did in His seventh saying
from the cross, He committed His spirit to God for safe-keeping. Now, was Jesus
merely whistling in the dark? I mean, did it do any good for Him to say,
“Father into THY hands I commit My Spirit.”
Well, the Resurrection gives us the answer. Because on
the 3rd day, God raised Him Who was truly and really dead and now He lives
forever and He offers us eternal life as well. So you see, because of the
cross, death no longer terrifies us. Now we know that for Christians death is
just a gateway to heaven.
