    Journey with me if you will to the Spring of AD 29. The day started early. It was about half past six on Friday morning. The purple robe was ripped off Jesus’ badly beaten body and a crown of thorns was placed on his head. He was clothed again with his own blood-stained, garment and led to ...read more
