Not to mention all the details of the day, he was beaten beyond recognition, spat upon, cursed, ridiculed, tormented - BUT NOT FOR HIMSELF but for YOU and ME! "Greater love hath NO man than this - that He lay down His life for His friends" - "You are my friends if you do whatsoever I have commaned you." "And this is the great commandment, that you LOVE GOD with all your heart, mind, and soul; and the second is like unto the first; that you LOVE one another."

THE END - which was only the beginning. Hallelujah!
