'I hey had the same unforgettable experience th a t had a t
once overjoyed and overawed the m ultitude of “The
M ount.” “It came to pass when Jesus had ended these
sayings, the people were astonished a t his teaching: for he
taught them as one having authority, and not as the
scribes.” His only final loyalty was to God. He would not
trem ble even before a quotation from the Old Testam ent
He said, “ Ye have heard it s a id ___ hut I say unto you.”
His actions in the temple at 12 years of age amazed his
m other. The world has puzzled over his decisions In the
wilderness tem ptations. Rut the most rem arkable action
of ids life came upon the cross. It is not the crucifixion
th at m atters but the Crucified. In the beginning “ He open­
ed liis m outh and taught them .” Here he opened his heart
and showed them.
W hat does He say from the cross? W hat can, w hat
should, he said from a cross? The Seven I^ast Words are
words of love. If faith appears for the m om ent to waver
of hope to be severely strained, love is now found a t its
best. If ever m an saw the h e a rt of God laid hare it was
