No Turning Back /7

Mar 30, 2024

In His last hours Jesus uttered seven statements that have become known as the Seven Last Words Of Christ:

  1. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.
  2. Verily I say unto thee, today thou shalt be with me in paradise.
  3. Woman, behold thy son. And to the Disciple whom He loved, behold your mother.
  4. My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?
  5. I thirst.
  6. It is finished.
  7. Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.

Then Jesus uttered another loud cry and dismissed His spirit. And the curtain in the Temple was split apart from top to bottom. When the Roman officer standing beside His cross saw how He dismissed His spirit, he exclaimed, “Truly, this was the Son of God!” Mark 15:37 TLB

And they laid Him in the tomb: There was a good and righteous man named Joseph, a member of the Sanhedrin, who had not agreed with their plan and action. He was from Arimathea, a Judean town, and was looking forward to the Kingdom of God. He approached Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Taking it down, he wrapped it in fine linen and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever been placed. It was the preparation day, and the Sabbath was about to begin. The women who had come with Him from Galilee followed along and observed the tomb and how His body was placed. Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment. Luke 23:50-56 CSB

All your cries have been heard and the ransom paid in full. Wait for it.
