Father murders only son.

Just that caption alone, will grip any reader's heart. Yet so many Christians, blow off what God did for our sin.

"God has shown that He still hates sin, that He is going to punish it, that He must punish it, and that He will pour out His wrath upon it. How did he show that on Calvary? By doing that very thing. What God did on Calvary was to pour out upon His only begotten and beloved Son His wrath upon sin. The Wrath of God that should have come upon you and me because of our sins fell upon Him. God always knew that He was going to do this. We read in the Scriptures of 'the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world'. It was a plan originating in eternity. It was because He knew that He was going to do this that God was able to pass over sins during all those centuries that had gone."

"The cross not only shows the love of God more gloriously than anything else, it shows His righteousness, His justice, His holiness and all the glory of His eternal attributes. they are all to be seen shining together there. If you do not see them all you have not seen the cross"

(Doctor Martin Lloyd Jones The Cross The vindication of God pg. 14 and 17)
