What Happened On The Cross? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 27, 2012

What exactly happened on the cross of Jesus Christ? What did it mean then and what does it mean to me now? Is is just a mascot, a symbol, or something much much more?

So what happened on the cross? Why is this THE seminal moment of Christianity? Many of us accept the reality of the cross without understanding why it matters. The cross, in its simplest terms, was a substitution. Back in the Garden of Eden, mankind rebelled against God and decided to be god ...read more

Death Series

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Dec 25, 2012

Jesus died on the cross to redeem you; he has fought the battle and has won; he has offered the sacrifice on your behalf and it was accepted; he has purchased you with his blood.

Introduction Listen to Jesus: For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many (10:45). He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that ...read more

INTRODUCTION It’s been my joy to lead hundreds of Holy Land visitors to a cliff outside Jerusalem that looks like the face of a skull.

The King Forsaken

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 14, 2020

Jesus is the King of the Jews; Christ the King of Israel. The Beloved Son is forsaken, but only to provide us with THE way of escape.

THE KING FORSAKEN. Mark 15:1-39. After the Sanhedrin had delivered Jesus to Pilate, the first thing that Pilate asked Jesus was, “Are you the KING OF THE JEWS?” Jesus answered, “Thou sayest” (Mark 15:2). Beyond that, Jesus refused to answer any of the accusations brought against Him by His ...read more

The Mount Of Calvary – The Necessity Of Trust (8/12) Series

Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Oct 12, 2020

In times of trouble we need to trust God. When we don’t understand, when everything is falling apart, when we don’t see a way forward, we need to confidently believe He is still on the throne. Despite much disappointment and pain we hold on to hope because we are condemned to victory!

Message by Eddie Fernandes Introduction (Click intro title) The message I am about to preach today couldn’t have come at a better time.

The Final Hours Of The Lord Jesus -From Golgotha To The Grave (For Now) Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 19, 2021

The Lord Jesus is in His last moments of agony and pain, both physically and spiritually as He completes His mission of redemption for fallen humanity. It looked on the surface, however, like a victory for his enemies and the devil as He died and was placed in a borrowed tomb, or so it would seem.

(Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more

The Centurion At The Feet Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 11, 2018

The story of this Centurion is listed in 3 of the Gospels because God wants us to see what he saw. What did the centurion see that day, and why did he cry out "Surely this was the Son of God"?

In the days of Jesus the most feared soldiers on the face of the earth were those of the Legions Of Rome. These men were practically invincible. It seemed to no nation of the day could stand against them. And one of the reasons they were so powerful and so feared was because their armies were led ...read more

"The Greatest Price Ever Paid”

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Mar 19, 2018

Jesus bore our sin in His boy on the cross and suffered in our place.

1. Why did darkness cover the whole land (v. 33)? The Bible says a thick darkness covered the land for three hours, from noon until three in the afternoon, when the sun would ordinarily be at its height and shining its brightest.

Shouts From The Savior

Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 19, 2018

The holiness of God recoils from even the smallest sin. When God the Father looked down and saw His Son on the cross, He didn’t see His Son; He saw the sin that He was bearing.

[Read these passages with lights off] Zephaniah 1:14-15: “The great day of the LORD is near, near and hastening fast; the sound of the day of the LORD is bitter; the mighty man cries aloud there.

Tortured Christ

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 22, 2018

The account of Jesus' suffering and death on our behalf has become so familiar that if we are not careful we can skim right through it when reading the Bible and never give it a second thought. Let's look at it again to day with fresh eyes of wonder.

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 24, 2018

Sometimes its difficult to really realise the pain and the suffering that Jesus went through on the cross for US! There is art in the form of paintings and sculpture that depicts the crucifixion in some theological aspect rather than reality.

CROSS OF PAIN, CR0SS OF LIFE During these 2 weeks leading up to Easter called passion tide we focus our thoughts and minds to Jesus’s life and in particular His Sufferings.
