Picture a state dinner in a nation’s capital: a lavish dining hall,
silver and crystal lining the table, waiters lined up ready to serve the
guests. A military band strikes up a fanfare, and the head of state
enters. But instead of sitting down, he removes his dinner jacket, dons
an apron, and asks the waiters to be seated at the table. Then, slowly
and carefully, he proceeds to serve them the meal. Crazy, right?
Amazingly,
the reality at the center of our faith transcends even this
illustration. Jesus, the eternal Son of God, gave up his very life to
save us from sin. What’s more, we learn that this wasn’t an exceptional
act; it’s part of who he is.
