Through the Written Word
by
Book Cover & Preview Text
Those who, in sympathy, weep with Jesus over the sins of the world will be blessed as well. This combined mourning allows no thought for oneself. While Jesus was on this earth, his heart anguished in such a way, that no language can describe it, about the transgressions of men. His toil, with the all-consuming love to remove the trials and tribulations of humanity. His heart ached for those who refused to come to Him that they might have life. All who are followers of Christ share in this experience, as they grow in in Christ, they become coworkers with Him for the salvation of humanity. They become one with Him in purpose, feeling the pain for those who refuse to come to Him, while also feeling the joy for those who do come to Him. (Page 11, Lifting up Christ).
