PROPHECY OF + V24
Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, to decide whose it shall be”; that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “THEY DIVIDED MY OUTER GARMENTS AMONG THEM, AND FOR MY CLOTHING THEY CAST LOTS.”
V. 28
HE WAS TRULY MAN, HUMAN
Jesus gave full proof of his humanity—sinless humanity.
He entered this world as a babe and was ‘wrapped in swaddling clothes’ (Luke 2:7).
As a child, we are told, he ‘increased in wisdom and stature’ (Luke 2:52).
As a boy we find him ‘asking questions’ (Luke 2:46).
As a man he was ‘wearied’ in body (John 4:6).
He was ‘an hungered’ (Matt.
4:2).
He ‘slept’ (Mark 4:38).
He ‘rejoiced’ (Luke 10:21).
He ‘groaned’ (John 11:33).
And here in our text he cried, ‘I thirst.’
That evidenced his humanity.
God does not thirst.
The angels do not.
We shall not in glory—‘they shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more’ (Rev.
7:16).
But we thirst now because we are human and living in a world of sorrow.
And Christ thirsted because he was man—‘Wherefore, in all things it behooved him to be made like unto his brethren’ (Heb.
2:17).”
NOT A BONE OF HIM SHALL BE BROKEN.”
37 And again another Scripture says, “THEY SHALL LOOK ON HIM WHOM THEY PIERCED.”
LLOYD-JONES
And finally, not only has God a plan, but it is a plan that is certain; nothing can stop it.
The Pharisees and Sadducees and scribes and all the others were against Christ.
They all delivered Him up to death.
He was a danger, a nuisance, and they regarded Him as a political agitator.
“Away with Him,” they shouted.
The unintelligent mob crucified Him, and they thought that was the end.
But they did not know that even as they were hammering in the nails, they were carrying out God’s will.
The God I preach to you can use His enemies, and He has often done so.
They do not know what is happening, but He does.
He used His enemies to carry out His own plan.
Human malignity could not frustrate it.
Our Lord’s enemies thought that when they crucified Him and saw His body taken to a tomb, that would be the end of Him, but it was not.
Hell had let itself loose, man and devil had done their utmost, but God smashed it all.
God raised Christ from the dead.
He is over all, and He triumphed over all, even over all His enemies, even the devil and hell and everything else that was against Him.
All are to be defeated: He has announced it by the Resurrection.
THE PAYMENT +
PAYMENT IN GOLD INSTEAD OF COPPER
“Though Christ paid the same debt as that which is due from lost souls, yet, through the excellency of his person, it was done in a shorter time.
A payment in gold is the same sum as a payment in silver or brass; only, through the excellency of the metal, it taketh up less room.”
Thus do we clearly see how the on death of Jesus was a fit and full substitute for the eternal woe of many.
How precious does it appear in that light!
We are redeemed with a price inconceivable!
Gold and silver are corruptible things in comparison therewith.
How we ought to prize the adorable person of our Lord!
What high thoughts we ought to entertain of him, seeing that it is “by himself” that he purged our sins!
His own intrinsic excellence was the essential value of the great price which he had paid.
Had he been less illustrious his sufferings had been insufficient.
Precious blood!
yea, more precious Lord Jesus, from whose preciousness the finished work derives its infinite efficacy…
RESPONSE:
Yet a good wife does not sit idly by the sea watching for a sail, but she sets the house in order for her husband’s return.
She who should sit looking out of window, or studying almanacs, and have no provision made for the home-coming, would show but scant love for her lord.
We should watch, but we should also stand with our loins girt, and do the duty of the hour, that when our Lord comes he may not blame our negligence in his service.
If we know little of the prophecies, we can show our expectancy by keeping the precepts.
