An indication of Christ’s glorious sacrifice is given us in the Book of Revelation. It describes the whole universe being swept with His praise. Every creature in heaven and earth know that none of them is worthy, only Jesus. (Rev. 5) They multiply accolades and exhaust language to match His unparalleled work. The cause of such worthiness was observable only in a measure even by those who watched Him in His dying hours. But it was not the total cost, because the Cross also affected the Throne! Christ was one with the Father. Infinity shared with the sin-bearer. The black hurricanes surging around the Cross swept also around the Throne above. Christ accepted our judgment but ‘God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself’. (2Cor 5,19) The vastness of the heart of God found a place for the sorrows of mankind. The music of heaven developed a minor key. “He took my sin and my sorrow and made them His very own. He bore the burden to Calvary and suffered and died alone.” God bless you
