Luke 23:46
And when Jesus had cried
out with a loud voice, He said, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.”
Having said this, He breathed His last.
Listen to the clear, ringing voice: “Father,
into Your hands I commit My spirit!” The spirit of the Son of God only? No, the
spirit of the whole human race incarnated in the Savior of the world. My spirit
was there; your spirit was there; and by God’s mighty grace and the gift of His
Spirit given by our LORD after He ascended, we can know experientially His
complete salvation for body, soul, and spirit…. That understanding does not
touch the depths of identification with sin to which our LORD went…. If one may
put it so, God was never more pleased with His Son than when He bridged the
gulf between God and man by the sacrifice of Himself.
