The Wonder of it All
Isaiah 53, John 19:31-37Some people in Jesus’ day thought they crucified a dangerous criminal. Some people thought He was a powerful rival. So, in some way, they knew they must get rid of Him. Few knew then what the crucifixion really meant. Even though Jesus had spoken about His crucifixion to His disciples, yet even they hardly knew what He was talking about.
The Completed Act
Psalms 22:18, John 19:23-30The only certainty we have is the fact of the end. The time of the end is hidden from us. Not so with Jesus. The record contained in John’s Gospel shows us how Jesus came to His death.
The Crucifixion
Isaiah 53:3-9, John 19:16-22The most solemn event of human history recorded is the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. His life has challenged many men to live right all down through the centuries. Many have suffered death because of their faith in Him. The Bible records leave no room to doubt that He was actually crucified. It is to that solemn event we give attention in this meditation.
The Final Choice
Matthew 28:19, John 19:8-15, Romans 1All of us face choices every day. Some choices are very serious. Some may be rather trivial. But each decision requires the will to carry it out. Serious choices can mean the difference between life and death. The most far-reaching choice is the choice we make for or against Jesus Christ because that has to do with the destiny of this life.
Who Is Guilty?
John 19:1-7, Romans 3:19, 3:21–22, James 1In every land, the government has some process by which to administer justice. There is undoubtedly in all countries a system of courts. They are not all the same, but there are processes to deal with lawbreakers. The tragedy is when innocent people are assumed to be guilty before evidence of guilt has been established.
