One thing we can say from all this (description of the agony of crucifixion) is that God knows what it is like to suffer and endure the most excruciating agony. He knows what it’s like to be pinned down and paralyzed. In times of sickness, we can draw strength from knowing that God knows what we are experiencing because He has gone through it Himself.
