Behold the Man

Behold the Man was the challenge made to all present at the trial of the Son of God.

There were present those that had beheld His claims and witnessed His wondrous works but when challenged they would not accept the proof and scoffed at the thought of Him being the Son of God. There were those that followed their leaders and likewise mocked Him saying - He saved others; himself he cannot save. There were those destitute of pity who treated Him with scorn and with wicked hands cruelly beat and crucified Him. There were some that were wise enough to judge Him to be a just and righteous man that had done nothing amiss: He was the Son of God. There were those that had both seen the power and person of the Son of God and had been drawn to follow Him and on beholding Him suffering they sorrowed exceedingly. In these last days there are those who would scoff at the challenge to behold the man Christ Jesus and scorn one that would declare it. However there are those who would gladly accept it. Those of us that have accepted it and received Him as our Lord and Savour, it was to our blessing, and we rejoice with unspeakable joy at each and every opportunity to behold him. To us He is precious, above all, none greater than, none like unto Him: He is wonderful, He is love: He is altogether lovely. He is the One to know, to trust, to love; and to worship and serve. It is the desire of this writer that others may come to behold Him to their blessing and to the glory of our God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
