"About That!"

 "And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:" (Hebrews 7:23 KJV) 

  "As soon as Judas left the room, Jesus said, "The time has come for the Son of Man to enter into his glory, and God will be glorified because of him. And since God receives glory because of the Son, he will soon give glory to the Son. Dear children, I will be with you only a little longer. And as I told the Jewish leaders, you will search for me, but you can't come where I am going. So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples."" (John 13:31-35 NLT)

 Most of us that believe in Christ, have come to understand why He needed to come and suffer such an agonizing death on the cross; we know this because our sins show us the many things we are capable of doing; and how easy it is to hurt one another. If only we could take back some of those things, which is something that cannot be done, at least not here on this earth! 

 They say that those scars which Jesus' bore are still there. Do you know why? Is it a reminder to us, or is it a reminder to Him? What if it is a reminder to the Father? We all should know what Jesus meant when He told His disciples that His time had come to enter into His glory, because He was speaking about the punishment, He would suffer for us! 

 How is that glory? Oh, my; How is it not...

"Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God's right hand. Think about the things of heaven, not the things of this earth. For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory." (Colossians 3:1-4 NLT)
