When the identity of Christ the suffering King comes into focus, so does the Christian identity in Christ as those who deny the self itself.
Jesus alone can open our eyes to see him for who he truly is.
Follow Jesus, for he offers goodness not based on our deservedness but based on his goodness.
Jesus alone can clean us because he alone can clean us from the inside out.
Jesus displays patience and long-suffering as those who come to him fail to grasp who he is.
If we choose to see Jesus on our own terms we will be offended and unwilling to believe.
There are two types of people. Those who try to bind Jesus and those who look to Jesus to be freed from their bondage.
