    Though Jesus could have saved Himself on the cross with just a word, He could not save Himself and do for us what we so desperately needed. Look at the reasons why "Himself He Could not Save."

    "Himself He Could Not Save" Matthew 27:32-56 INTRODUCTION In these verses we come to the scene of Jesus’ death on the cross.
