The Marvelous Testimony of Christ’s Passion

Passion of Christ

What are you passionate about?

Sure, we all are excited about certain things and loving toward certain people. But if you ask someone about their favorite sports team or express interest in their grandchildren, you’re likely to unleash a torrent of enthusiastic adoration. Clearly, we are not equally passionate about all our likes and loves.

Even within a marriage, passion can wax and wane. The flame that once burned hot and full of desire often subsides into a steady and reliable warmth. That is the nature of our human emotions and feelings. Our feeling of love ebbs and flows over time.

God’s love for us does not rise and fall based on fickle human emotion. It is steadfast and true, not to mention patient and kind—bearing, believing, hoping, and enduring all things in its never-failing constancy (1 Corinthians 13:4-8).

Speaking of His chosen people, the Jews, the LORD told Jeremiah, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness” (Jeremiah 31:3). His love for us was settled before the foundation of the world and has never wavered.

We could (and will) spend eternity recounting the ways God has loved us. But the most marvelous testimony of His love is what we can see in the Passion of Jesus Christ. In that unfathomable act of divine self-sacrifice, Paul tells us “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

Amazingly, the Lord God foretold His great act of selfless, ceaseless, unfailing love. While human understanding tends to operate best in hindsight, He offered numerous signs pointing not only to the incarnation, birth, and ministry of Jesus Christ but also to His great Passion.

The March-April edition of the Lamplighter magazine highlights the prophetic Word of God that was fulfilled in the Person of Jesus Christ and through His atoning death. Get ready to be awed anew by the breadth, length, height, and depth of His love that passes human knowledge (Ephesians 3:17-19).

Prepare your heart to praise our great God and Savior with fresh zeal.

  • Good teachings in Lamplighter Magazine March-April 2025. All articles are so informative with pictures that really tell the story of Christ’s sacrifice. The Passion, The Pain, and the Promise share that eventful day and trial that led to the Crucifixion when Christ laid down his life for us.
    Romans 5:8. God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. We are now justified by HIS blood. He laid his life down for all of us as a sacrifice. Let’s be thankful for his blessings and mercies as we observe lent and Easter.

  • Thankyou for the Prophecy Tours. We really enjoy getting to see the Land of the Bible where all the events took place. We are very interested in Holy Land History and pictures.

  • Beautiful article, thank you sir! God bless you, your family, and all at Lamb & Lion ministry!
