All Because of the
Wonderful Cross
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to
us who are being saved it is the power of God. (1 Corinthians 1:18 NKJV)
It is their last night together, their last meal. It's clear now; there will be no mighty army to
claim victory over the enemies of God's people. Jesus' triumphant entry into the Holy City
now seems like years ago instead of days and it is to a table that Jesus leads His twelve, not to
a war.
It is at this table that they see the truth. Jesus loves them. He loves them with a mighty
love, a love bigger than anything they've ever known. There He offers Himself to them in
the bread and the wine—His body and His blood. The weight of this mystery is
overwhelming. The time is now. Jesus will stand in the darkness—alone.
