\\u201cIt was bound to happen.\\u201d When have you said that? The phrase applies equally to an unwelcome event (\\u201cThe way he drove, an accident was bound to happen\\u201d) and to a happier experience (\\u201cAs gifted as she is, the promotion was bound to happen\\u201d).

The phrase applies to Jesus, too. Jesus was \\u201ccross-bound\\u201d\\u2014given his love for sinners, his obedience to his Father, and the weight of guilt, he was bound to suffer and die. But Jesus took up his life again; it was bound to happen because he rules over death, and his sacrifice satisfied the justice of God. After Jesus paid the penalty of sin, he was \\u201ccross-freed.\\u201d His resurrection, too, was bound to happen. May these worship services help you acknowledge Jesus: both cross-bound and cross-freed.
