I Know The Man

John 19:5 "Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!"

"I am the door, by me if any man enters in he shall be saved. Here we have the greatest event ever recorded in history. A night when the world witnessed the evil in man, and beheld the love of God. A night when the sin of mankind came face to face with the salvation of the world, when all was revealed as they beheld the man. It was the night they crucified the savior.
 
This precious lamb of God shedding his blood for the remission of sin, so man could be reconciled back to God. Jesus perfecting his glorious body, preparing a people for his prepared place. Jesus the love of God, giving us the word of God, that we might be led by the spirit of God. A perfect sacrifice for an imperfect people, a lamb without spot and or blemish, taking on the sin of the world; Jesus making himself a curse that we might be made free from the curse. Behold the Man whipped for our transgressions, and bruised for our iniquity. Behold the Man led from judgment hall to judgment hall, as they search in him for sins that lied within me. Behold the Man, led up Golgotha's hill, bearing the sins of the whole world upon his shoulders. He who knew no sin, made to bear our sin that we might have eternal life. Behold the man. Behold the Man, hung high between heaven and earth, like he is unworthy or either, but the creator of both. Behold the Man in the mist of two thieves, separating the old man from the new. Behold the Man, God stretch out like a bridge over troubled water, bridging the gap reuniting fallen man back to his righteous Father. Behold the Man, Gods word made flesh, mans healing, mans deliverance, mans salvation.
 
The work now complete, and Jesus cries with a loud voice, that all the world should hear, a loud voice that his death should be proclaimed out loud to all the world, a loud voice that we may know that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. Jesus cried with a loud voice and gave up the Ghost. Behold the Man, who died that we might live, Christ and Him crucified.
