Wonderous Countrast

In the floral kingdom, the flowers have many hues. A number of different colored flowers in a bouquet will enhance the beauty of each other by their contrast.


Just so in the cross of Christ, the attributes of God are brought out in wondrous contrast and yet with consistent harmony. There we see His name glorified, His love manifested, His majesty upheld, His justice satisfied, His truth vindicated, His law magnified, and His righteousness displayed in the putting away of our sins!

[Frederick Marsh]




Psalm 85:10 ... Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.


Colossians 1:20 ... And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.


Hebrews 12:2 ... Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.❤
