Down From the Cross

“In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! Let this Christ, this King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him” (Mark 15:31-32 NIV). Satan would have us think that we can save ourselves. We need to be reminded that Jesus did in fact come down from the cross; however, it was not to save Himself, but rather He came down from the cross to save you and me.
