The Passion........

The Passion (mutilating and beating before the Crucifixing death of Christ) came before the Resurrection to set what was taking place:
The sinless became sin,
The One who in no guile was found, became cursed. Cursed is every man who dies on the cross.
The only one truly obedient to the Fathers will, was forsaken.
The spotless Lamb, became the ever cleansing blood.
That unrecognizable corps was laid to rest in a tomb of stone and sealed, then guarded by soldiers.
Death could not hold Him.
Hell could not overtake Him. "He descended below to lead captive captivity."
He rose again to the Glory of the Father and for the eternal life of all men.
He ascended on high and gave gift to men.
All that can be said is:
Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah..............
And so we rejoice in Christ our savior.
