Re: free will
in the Garden of Gethsemane
three times He asked the Father
let the cup of crucifixion pass Me
He could have slipped away there
from the sleeping disciples and the posterity
He could have walked away
just vanish into the night
as a shadow amongst the shadows
and make the words of the prophets vain
but save so much bloodshed
He could have walked away
walked as in the Via Appia vision
on the road to Rome
where Peter was fleeing persecution
astonished Peter asked
Where are you going Lord
Jesus answered in the rays of the rising sun
I am going to Rome to be crucified again
Peter turned and went with Him
He could have walked away
