How does the crucifixion reveal humanity's attitude towards God?

Answered in 1 source

The crucifixion starkly illustrates humanity's hostility and rejection towards God, as evidenced by the crowd's cries for Jesus' death.

The crucifixion of Christ serves as a profound revelation of humanity's fallen state and its attitude towards God. As described in the sermon, the same crowd that once shouted 'Hosanna' now shouted 'Crucify!' (John 19:15), showcasing their rejection of the very One who came to save them. This incident underscores the biblical truth that the natural mind is enmity against God (Romans 8:7). The act of crucifying Jesus demonstrates humanity's inclination to despise and contradict God's purpose, even going so far as to claim allegiance to their laws while failing to recognize their own guilt. Every act of hostility against Christ, including His crucifixion, powerfully illustrates the depths of human sinfulness and the necessity of divine intervention for salvation.
