Jesus recognizes that He has accomplished everything predicted in the Scriptures. He announces, "It is finished", and then Jesus the Christ dies.
To make sure He is dead, a soldier pierces Jesus' side with his lance, and now men can do no more to Emmanuel.

“Beautiful.”

Just WHAT part of a man being TORTURED to DEATH in the most horrible manner imaginable do you find, “Beautiful.”?

To: Hebrews 11:6
Christ couldn't just die. He had to die the death of a sinner. Lowly, accursed, and lifted up on a pole. He was an image many found repulsive, like that bronze snake 1600 years earlier. Marred more than any man,

....... So His visage was marred more than any man, And His form more than the sons of men; (Isaiah 52:14)

He could have come down and said, "Not today!" But he stayed. He died a death of pain and shame for sins he never committed. Sacrificed from the beginning of time, for sins He saw us commit, yet turned His eyes every time we did.

So, every time you are tempted by sin, try to remember how The King of Kings, The Lord of Lords was so violently lifted on a pole for you and me. Take a moment and look up at that Cross, and do not allow your head to turn away, or you very well may find yourself giving in to the temptation of sin. If you find yourself stumbling into sin then take a moment and pray to the One who stayed upon that cross for you to take away your shame of sin.

His arms are outstretched and waiting for you, all it takes is for you to look up willingly and accept His Father’s gift to you. Then you can lift Him up with Praise, because HE was lifted up to become all the sins we are guilty of.

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.  (2 Corinthians 5:21)
