Crucify Him

My former philosophy professor, drawing from Karl Barth, once quipped that Jesus is the question to all our answers.

Too many Christians have answers, yet few ask questions. As far as the religious establishment was concerned, Jesus was crucified because he threatened their cherished systems -- systems that were built upon centuries of good answers.

Sometimes, Jesus is a real problem for the people of God.
