I remember when I first saw "The Passion Of Christ" I walked out in the the long torture scenes with the profound horror. Tears in my eyes.
How much does he care? He stretched his arms. He showed this much with his arms and died for us.
John15
12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
14 You are my friends if you do what I command.
15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business.
Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit —fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.
17 This is my command: Love each other.
You Friend/brother in Christ Jesus! AMEN!!
