Unchanging Human Nature
At the cross of Christ, sin reached its climax. Its most terrible display took place at Calvary. It was never blacker or more hideous. We see the human heart laid bare and its corruption fully exposed. Some people have said that man has improved since that day, that if Christ came back today, He would not be crucified but would be given a glorious reception. Christ does come to us every day in the form of Bibles that we don't read, in the form of churches that we don't attend, in the form of human need that we pass by. Many are convinced that if Christ came back today, He would be crucified more quickly than He was 2,000 years ago. Sin never improves because human nature hasn’t changed. That’s why we must focus on ridding ourselves of any thoughts or deeds that crucify Jesus afresh.
