for he wanted to spend more time with his disciples and teach them. He said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of his enemies. He will be killed, but three days later he will rise from the dead.”
~ Mark 9:31 [NLT]
Jesus came to Earth, lived, and died for one reason…to rescue his fallen creation! He knew that his actions, words, death, and resurrection were the long awaited fulfilment of the scripture. He died knowing that his death was not the end of the story. He knew that he would rise! Thank God for his great rescue plan and for coming to die so that we might live forever with him!
