Because

by PamFord Davis  
5/26/2020 / Devotionals

Children frequently ask why.

‘Dad, why can’t I go? My friend’s parents are letting them go.’

Dad answers with the proverbial ‘because.’

‘Because why?’

‘Just because; because I said so.’

Why did Jesus have to die?

Because He said so.

“From that time Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day. Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, ‘God forbid it, Lord! This shall never happen to You.’ But He turned and said to Peter, ‘Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but man’s (Matthew 16:21-23 NASB).”

Why was Christ raised?

Just because…

Because of our justification…

“He who was delivered over because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification (Romans 4:25 NASB).”
