Golgotha a skull shaped hill in ancient Jerusalem, the site of JESUS’S crucifixion; referred to as MT. CALVARY; in all Four Gospels: Matt 27:33, Mark 15:22, Luke 23:33, John 19:17:
JESUS was crucified outside the camp: Heb 13:11-13: For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the High Priest for sin, are burned without the camp: Wherefore JESUS also, that He might sanctify the people with His Own Blood, suffered without the gate: Let us go forth, therefore unto Him without the camp bearing His reproach. Exodus 29:14: But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp; it is a Sin Offering: JESUS fulfilled every type and shadow of the Old Testament offerings: Sin – Burnt – Peace – Scapegoat – Meat – Wave – Freewill:
All the way to CALVARY He went for us all: Isaiah 53:1-12: tells us how He suffered: bearing our sin and shame: He gave His Life and shed Blood, an Atonement for our Transgressions:
The Sinless Son of God, called The Spotless Lamb of God, took our place: The Scapegoat: He bore our sins in His own body on the Cross: Psalm 103:12: As far as the East is from the West, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us: He paid the penalty:
The Wages of sin is death, but the Gift of God is Eternal Life through Christ Jesus: What a Transaction: The Innocent took the judgment and wrath of God for the sin of all mankind:
The guilty, pardoned, cleansed by The Precious Blood of The Lamb: Justified as if we never sinned: Set Free from bondage: Bound, and we never knew it: Dead, now made alive:
Heb 12:2: Looking unto Jesus, The Author, and Finisher of our Faith, who for the Joy that was set before Him, endured the Cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the Throne of God. We who have received Him as Savior and Lord are the Joy; He saw:
It seemed like God had a Dilemma, the thing He loved, {US} had the thing He hated, {SIN} But LOVE found a way to separate the Sinner, from the ugliness of Sin:
O the LOVE that drew Salvation’s Plan; O the Grace that brought it down to man; O the Mighty Gulf that God did span at CALVARY: Mercy there was Great and Grace was free; Pardon there was multiplied to me; there my burdened soul found liberty at CALVARY:
Now we are Sons and Daughters of the Living God. 1 Peter 2:9: But you are a Chosen generation, a Royal priesthood, a Holy Nation, a Peculiar people; that you should shew forth the Praises of Him who hath called you of darkness, into His Marvelous Light:
O Bless God for CALVARY: Now we can have Fellowship with God, and with fellow believers: Sin had separated us, but now we can draw nigh to God through the Blood of the Everlasting Covenant: O Glorious Mystery sacrificed on CALVARY, by {The Great I AM}
CALVARY covers it all, my sin, my shame. my sorrows: My friend let JESUS fix for you:
Amen amen and amen 🙏
