The Second Word: Salvation Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Mar 24, 2005

The second word of our Savior on the cross is directed to one of the thieves crucified with him. An analysis of Jesus’ second word on the cross, as set forth in Luke 23:43, teaches us about salvation.

"I Thirst" Series

Contributed by Kevin Cummins on Jun 9, 2003

"I thirst" is a statement from the cross that was only recorded by John in his gospel. I believe there was at least three reasons why God inspired to John to record that statment. This sermons looks at those three reasons.

I believe as Christ took on the sins of the world, that sin that was upon Him separated Him from His Father and in that time of spiritual agony He cried out, “My God, my God, why ...read more
