John 12:31-32 came to life for me today...understanding that 3 men died on the cross...Adam in the flesh, Satan in the flesh and Jesus in the flesh. In just one phrase He crucifies 3 men...Now the judgement of the world is come (Adam in the flesh), now the prince of this world is cast out (Satan in the flesh) and If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me (Jesus in the flesh). Thus arriving at the understanding that with one stoke of Grace He slew 3 (Adam, Satan and Jesus) liberating an entire creation and fitting it into one phrase, while taking 66 books to explain it. How big is our God? Small enough to fit in the heart of man yet big enough to fill all of creation.
