“The Cross is … to those being saved, the power of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18
Many of us, including myself,
have heard, numerous times, the historical account of Jesus last few days before
His crucifixion. Even so,
there is still for me the twitch of conscience, on Maundy Thursday, when one by
one the disciples ask, “Is it I?” Their query is a response to Jesus’
announcement that one of them will betray him. (Mark 14:19) In contemplating
their question -- my question -- it is easy for me to reflect upon my own
culpability in Jesus’ suffering and death. “My sin, Lord Jesus, caused your crucifixion.”
