9 (1 Peter 1:18, 19; see EGW comment on Matthew 27:45, 46; Mark 16:6; John 1:1-3, 14; Philippians 2:5-8; Hebrews 4:15). Sufferings of Deity—“In him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” Men need to understand that Deity suffered and sank under the agonies of Calvary. Yet Jesus Christ whom God gave for the ransom of the world purchased the church with His own blood. The Majesty of heaven was made to suffer at the hands of religious zealots, who claimed to be the most enlightened people upon the face of the earth (Manuscript 153, 1898).{7BC 907.2}

Mennesker behøver at forstå at guddommen led og segnede under Golgatas pinsler. Alligevel købte Jesus Kristus, hvem Gud gav som løsesum for verden, menigheden for Sit eget blod. Himlens majestæt fik lov at lide i hænderne på religiøse fanatikere, som hævde at være de mest oplyste mennesker på jordens overflade.(MS 153, 1898).
