    Discover Jesus’ true understanding of God and mankind through His last words on the cross (A Good Friday Devotional)

    Words from a dying man can be fearful, resentful or senile, but rarely confident. These last words from the lips of Jesus were confident.

    Certainly -- At A Distance

    For Good Friday: sometimes we no longer see things because we are too close to them. The disciples saw the cross "at a distance", but the centurion saw it through his callousness, cynicism, and skepticism, and affirmed, "Certainly".

In 1891 as an undergraduate at Cambridge University he was nicknamed “Bill the Cynic.” He was argumentative, disagreeable and he had a sharp, bitter, nasty tongue.
