Tune in to listen to Pastor Josh preach from John 18 this morning:

“Jesus offers up his life in obedience to his Father, not as a pathetic

martyr suffering a cruel fate but in full knowledge of what was to befall

him to achieve his purpose and will…There are those today who would strip

the cross of its significance, unwilling to acknowledge God as Holy in his

judgment they deny that he punished the sin of believers upon his Son. When

your imagination of God is only love — only nice and never terrible — in

order to continue in this charade, you must remove the centrality of the

cross to Jesus’ mission and think of his execution as something evil men

forced upon him…”

(Sermon originally preached on October 6, 2019)
