Holy Week Gethsemane
Maundy Thursday
The last supper — This is my body, this is my blood — Gethsemane (meaning oil press, symbolically meaningful) — The betrayal.
Comment:
Almost everything of value that can be said about the atonement has been said elsewhere, and what little we have to offer you will mostly see tomorrow in the Good Friday post. Here is what we have today.
Why did Christ have to atone twice, once in the garden and then on the cross?
Why did Adam help Christ during the atonement in Gethsemane?
The Parables of Rule
I once wrote three parables basically about political theory, about what being a ruler is about, and at the end discovered (honey in the jawbone of an ass) I had been writing about Christ and his atonement.
