JESUS
CHRIST-COMPASSION
He sheds
tears for those that shed His blood.
A Puritan Golden Treasury,
compiled by I.D.E. Thomas, by permission of Banner of Truth, Carlisle, PA. 2000, p. 112.
Remember that
even Jesus’ most scathing denunciation – a blistering diatribe against the
religious leaders of Jerusalem in Matthew 23 – ends with Christ weeping over
Jerusalem (v. 37). Compassion colored
everything He did.
