Thanks to Erlene for requesting this hymn–He Still Has the Scars, sung by Carroll Roberson. The lovely scenery is to be found just outside of Tucson, AZ. It’s the work of God’s hands.

I can hardly bear to imagine the sufferings of Our Lord, His crucifixion. But it was the only way He could save our fallen world. Yes–we’re fallen that far.

Some hymn requests have piled up, and I’m going to post them one by one–starting with this request from Erlene, He Still Has the Scars, by Carroll Roberson.
We are in the Lent season now. Among the hardest duties of a Christian is to contemplate the crucifixion of our Savior
That was for our sakes.

This is another worship song suggested by Erlene–He Still Has the Scars, by Carroll Roberson.
I find the crucifixion of Our Lord Jesus Christ almost too horrible to contemplate. I’ve lived all my life in the modern United States: we don’t get to see public executions, extravagant and gory punishments. In fact, it’s against the law in our country, per the Eighth Amendment. So I have to imagine the crucifixion, and it’s not easy.
Add to that the fact that Jesus Christ was innocent: without sin: He had done only good, all throughout his ministry: and He spoke the truth. Even Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent.
“His blood be upon us and our children,” cried the crowd.
“We have no king but Caesar,” cried the crowd.
But the Lord lives, and has obtained forgiveness of sins and eternal life for all who believe in Him. And He still has the scars.

Requested by Erlene, as an antidote to the grim and evil news of these days–He Still Has the Scars, by Carroll Roberson.
As a sinner I would not dare to pray, but for my faith in God’s word, that His sovereign grace has covered me with Christ’s righteousness. By His stripes we are healed.
