..."Their sins and lawless acts...

JESUS WAS BEATEN,SCOURGED, CRUCIFIED, DIED, BURIED, DESCENDED INTO HELL, RAISED FROM THE DEAD, APPEARED TO MANY, ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN, SITS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD, THE FATHER, ALMIGHTY. FROM THERE HE WILL JUDGE THE LIVING & THE DEAD.


..."Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more."... Hebrews 10:17

Even knowing who He was, in their hearts, their hearts were so bent on evil that they ordered His execution! IMAGINE!! They traded the truth for a lie and thinking they were wise they became fools. In the end ALL will bow and proclaim Jesus as Lord of All. Draw near to Him NOW while you still can. Waiting until judgement day will be too late.



A medical accounting of crucifixion







33 When they came to the place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the
criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.

34 But Jesus was saying, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are

doing " And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves.

35 And the people stood by, looking on. And even the rulers were sneering at Him,

saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if this is the Christ of God, His
Chosen One."

36 The soldiers also mocked Him, coming up to Him, offering Him sour wine,

37 and saying, "If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself!"
Luke 23:33-37


Jesus chose to die for us so we could choose to live for Him

Imagine, even from the cross, the most humiliating, cruel and painful way to be put to death, Jesus prayed for forgiveness for those responsible. I wonder if Barabbas realized that God took his, Barabbas', place? Did he ever realized That God saved his life, which gave HIM another chance to repent? I wonder what ever happened to Barabbas?
