Could've Stopped It All
A crown of thorns struck upon his head.
7-inch nails driven through his hands and feet.
A heavy wooden cross with splintering strips of wood on Jesus's back as he hung on the cross at Calvary.
Called upon the Father, saying - "Father, forgive them for they do not know what they are doing." before taking his final breath.
Had a spear struck to his side, coming out with blood and water to really make sure he was dead. He could've stopped it all in the garden.
Could've called down every angel in heaven to come down and get rid of everyone who wanted Jesus crucified.
Jesus knew he had to do this, to free us from Satan's captivity and bring us into his marvelous light.
Had his body put in the tomb with the stone rolled away and two guards keeping watch.
Darkness rejoiced as though heaven had lost; then the angel of the Lord came, and the guards trembled and became like dead men.
For the Lord arose with our freedom in hand!
