The Coronavirus and the Cross

Something they have in common: foundational cause

Father, forgive them (Luke 23:34)

Covid-19 and the cross of Christ — both came upon the planet for the same root reason.

The viral affliction and the brutal Crucifixion — both happened because of Adam and Eve’s rebellion.

Sickness and death became our lot because of sin.

Christ’s voluntary humiliation and death came as God’s solution to man’s sin — our sin, your sin, my sin.

The sacrifice of God’s own Son makes it possible for me to perceive His love for me, and to avail myself of His redemption for me.

Well, when you hear and read about the coronavirus, remember the Cross and the Christ sacrificed thereon. For you.
