Thanks for that link. It was before my time here at FR. I've read similar articles before, but reading this again STILL brought an immense urging of tears and a flood of prayerful thanks to Almighty God for His unspeakable gift. I said in another post talking about wearing a cross and whether or not we would wear an electric chair if Jesus had been killed in one, it just hit me reading this account that Jesus picked the most cruel and possibly the most heartless and tortuous way to be sacrificed than any other way I can imagine. An electric chair, though not anything I would call fun, would have been a kindness compared to Roman crucifixion! And He did it for us...far more than "opening the gate to heaven", he bled and died a horrible death so that the debt for every sin every person ever did or will do was PAID IN FULL. How matchless is the love and grace of our God! Praise you Lord Jesus!

Now we see through a glass darkly...
