Christ's Greatest Work
When the centurion, who stood opposite Him,
saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said,
“Truly, this Man was the Son of God!”
Mark 15:39
The Lord Jesus worked all His life. But the greatest work that Jesus did was not in the carpenter’s shop, nor even at the marriage feast of Cana, where He turned the water into wine. The greatest work that Jesus did was not when He made the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the dumb to speak, nor even the dead to rise. The greatest work that Jesus did was not when He taught as One having authority, or when He scathingly denounced the Pharisees for their hypocrisy. The greatest work that Jesus did was not in the great ethical programme He presented to mankind—that programme which has become the foundation for Western culture. What, then, was His greatest work? His greatest work was achieved in those three dark hours on the cross of Calvary. Christ’s greatest work was His dying for us.
