Stomped

A genuine, bona fide temper tantrum includes foot-stomping. Stomping of the foot indicates … okay, that's it – I’ve had it – you’ve done it now. The stomper means business!

Jesus’ agony in Gethsemane was serious! In the movie "The Passion of Christ," He came face-to-face with Satan who taunted The Messiah about the sinfulness of man and weakness of the flesh. Only a few days earlier, Jesus had spoken of God’s power over the enemy: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy ... " Luke 10:18. The movie scene in Gethsemane revealed the full humanity of Christ, wanting to avoid death yet disclosed His fully divine nature conquering the weakness of the flesh. Death would be the last enemy He would face; and, His final and greatest victory! We are not abandoned nor left defenseless! "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world." (John 4:4). Christ won – Satan lost the battle in Gethsemane ... Christ stomped evil then set His face and feet to Jerusalem. Why? Because of His deep relentless love for you and for me ... His Passion.
