    It Never Crossed His Mind Again

     | 1,318 views

    Although Jesus was and is fully God, He was and is fully man. He can feel what we feel because, as the Word says, He was “…in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin” (Heb. 4:15). We are going to look at how His faith was tested, but He did not sin – not even one time.

    IT NEVER CROSSED HIS MIND AGAIN TEXT: HEBREWS 12:1-3 INTRODUCTION: We are told to “consider” Jesus, Who “endured the cross” and despised “the shame.” He endured the shame because of, “the joy that was set before Him.” He is the beginner and finisher of our faith. He walked the way of faith first ...read more
