Bible Question:
Reading John10:14-18 having a hard time how these verse describe Christ's death on the cross? |
Bible Answer: sweet, Think of the sheep of the other flock as the Gentiles and see also John 11:52. Jesus died willingly on the cross for us. "Not my will, but Thy will be done." That is, He gave up or "laid down" his life willingly and took it up again in the resurrection. Emmaus |
