This is a tragic story, yet beautiful of all. A story of love so deep, so pure, and yet—a love that the world rejected.
Have you ever been betrayed by someone you loved deeply?
Have you ever given your all, only to be cast aside, mocked, and abandoned?
If yes, then, my friend, you have only tasted a fragment of the rejection that Jesus Christ endured. He, the Son of the Living God, left the splendor of heaven, clothed Himself in human flesh, walked among us, to atone for our sins so we don't face condemnation and death on the day of the Lord.
He healed our diseases, opened the eyes of the blind, and yet… He was despised.
Stay with me till the end of this post because this is not just a story; it is an urgent call to your soul.
THE REJECTED LOVE OF JESUS – A PATHETIC JOURNEY
Two thousand years ago, in a small town called Bethlehem, Love was born in the most unexpected way. Not in a palace, not among the wealthy, but in a manger, wrapped in swaddling clothes. This child was Jesus Christ—the Word made flesh that came to dwell among us in order to bring us into oneness with The Father,
When He walked on the earth, He was the light shining in the darkness. He went about doing good as a growing Son of Man.
But from the very moment He entered this world, rejection followed Him.
Herod sought to kill Him as an infant. The world had no place for Him. The King of Glory was born in obscurity, hidden from the eyes of those He came to save.
As He grew, He lived a life of perfect love. He touched the untouchable, embraced the sinners, healed the brokenhearted, and forgave the worst of sinners. Yet, the world despised Him. The religious leaders, instead of worshiping Him, plotted against Him. The very people He came to save turned their backs on Him.
THE CROSS – THE GREATEST SACRIFICE OF LOVE
Then came the darkest moment in history. The moment when love was nailed to a cross.
Betrayed by one of His own.
Sold for thirty pieces of silver—the price of a slave.
Dragged through the streets, spat upon, beaten beyond recognition. The whip tore His flesh. Stripes were laid upon His back for our healing (Isaiah 53:5). His face, once full of grace, was disfigured beyond human likeness.
A crown of thorns pressed into His skull. Blood dripped from His brow, yet He said not a word.
The crowd that once shouted "Hosanna!" now screamed, "Crucify Him!"
And so, they led Him to Golgotha, the place of the Skull.
With nails, they pinned His hands and feet to the rugged wood. The hands that healed the sick were pierced. The feet that walked upon water were wounded. The mouth that spoke words of life cried out, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."
THE REDEMPTIVE POWER OF HIS LOVE
Oh, my friend, can you feel the weight of this love? This was not just a man suffering; this was the Creator being slain by His creation. He bore the sins of the world—your sins, my sins—so that we might be free.
As He hung there, the sky turned dark. The earth trembled. Even nature wept at the sight of its Maker being murdered. And then, with one final breath, He declared, "It is finished." The price was paid.
Love had conquered sin. Love had bridged the gap between humanity and divinity.
WHY DID HE DO IT?
Why would Jesus endure such agony? Why would He allow Himself to be rejected, humiliated, and murdered?
Because He loves you. Yes, YOU.
Romans 5:8 says, "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
This is the love that the world rejected. But today, my friend, you don’t have to reject it. You don’t have to turn away like those who nailed Him to the cross. You have a choice—to accept His love, to embrace the salvation He freely gives.
Maybe you’ve been running from God. Maybe you feel unworthy. Maybe you think your sins are too great. But listen—there is no sin too great that His blood cannot wash away. No past too broken that His grace cannot restore.
Come to Jesus today. He stands with open arms, waiting to embrace you, to cleanse you, to give you eternal life.
If you’re ready to surrender to Him, pray this prayer with me:
“Lord Jesus, I come before You today, just as I am. I confess that I am a sinner in need of Your mercy. I believe that You died for me, that You rose again, and that You are the Son of God. Today, I accept Your love. I surrender my heart to You. Come into my life, be my Lord and Savior, and help me to walk with You forever. Amen.”
If you prayed that prayer, I want you to know that heaven is rejoicing over you right now! You are now a child of God. Your past is erased, your sins forgiven, and your future is secured in Christ.
Now, I encourage you—don’t stop here. Grow in your faith. Study the Bible, for the Bible says in 2 Timothy 2:15, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
