He declared to a nation that was divided among belief, race, law, oppression, riches, and power.
"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
- Luke 23:34
- Luke 23:34
What does Christ mean when He declares this phrase?
He is praying and asking forgiveness for a nation that doesn't believe He is the Messiah.
This nation heard His claims.
They heard of things He had done.
They reject Him.
And Christ -- In His power and strength asks that His Father forgive them.
I will be thinking about this for a long time.
