What kind of death did Jesus die?
Jesus died the death of the cross—not an ordinary death, but the most horrible death ever devised. He became obedient unto death, humbling Himself of His own volition, and that death of the cross is the bedrock of salvation.
Les teaches that Jesus was totally man and totally God, and being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself of His own volition and became obedient unto death. It was not just an ordinary death, but the most horrible death ever devised—the death of the cross. This becomes the very bedrock of our salvation. Les notes it is so simple that people stumble over it, yet so complex that even a thousand years could not comprehend the power of the work of the cross. It is beyond human comprehension, but God simply asks us to believe it, and the world refuses to do so.
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
