Not without you


On the eve of the cross, Jesus made his decision. He would rather go to hell for you than go to heaven without you.

I am so thankful that He did.

That knowledge, along with the photo you've used here, gives me goosebumps.

Praise God!

Maybe it's not about Jesus choosing to go to heaven with me. Could there be something even deeper? Is it about Jesus bringing glory to GOD through his actions.
Thanks for this post it got me thinking

I agree with you, Mike. Jesus brings glory to God, the Father brings glory to the Son, the Spirit brings glory to both of them... Maybe they all want to have us in heaven to share in this eternal celebration of love and glory?
