Good morning brethren. Happy Good Friday greeting in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
As we think of the crucification of Jesus today let's know that our Lord is risen He is not on the cross,His tomb is empty.
TEXT :Mathew 27:39- 54
There are things that happened during the crucification of Jesus
Topic:THREE KEY EVENTS THAT HAPPENED DURING THE CRUCIFICATION OF JESUS
Events are
1.Darkness at midday (verse 45)
This took 3 good hours
Darkness = evil,dark things,sin
This shows that Jesus is carrying the sins of the whole world
Sins of humanity carried by a man who had no sin.
This was not a solar eclipse, it has never happened in history and it will never happen
Jesus at this moment said your sins you can't save yourself
Only Christian's have tested this.
God was judging the whole world through His son
No matter how your world is dark,there is one who carried your darkness
Jesus gave light
Someone carried your SINS- JESUS
2.THE TEMPLE CURTAIN CUTTING WAS TORN INTO 2(Verse 50-51)
Curtain separated the Holy place from the Holy of Holies
The priests used to go in the Holy of Holies to intercede for people once a year
Jesus' death we do not need a high priest(mediator) we should approach God direct
The Jesus we worship no matter what you go through,Jesus has opened a way,we can approach Him-He has paid if full
How many people do you need to carry it-Jesus paid it,you need to approach Him
You need not to pay anything my brothers and sisters Jesus paid everything
He has taken away the curtains
3.THE EARTHQUAKE AND THE EMPTY TOMB(V.51b-52)
Earthquake happened at same time with CUTTING of curtain, tombs opened
Bodies of Holy people were raised to life
This means that Jesus who died on the cross has power to bring back to life
He can bring back to life our situations
Jesus died to bring life
Its is not that Jesus died and we continue dying
He died and resurrected for ever
This is the Jesus I present in the 21st century
HE HAS NEVER CHANGED
LETS CELEBRATE HIM AND LETS WORSHIP HIM
Which area do you need light.The many I AM
JESUS SAID I AM THE LIGHT
JESUS IS THE HIGH PRIEST
HAPPY EASTER
Let's sing the sunday school song
HE'S ALIVE AMEN×2
JESUS IS ALIVE FOREVER HE'S ALIVE AMEN
HAPPY EASTER KEEP PRAYING AND TRUSTING IN GOD
SHALOM
