He Bore The Cross Of Jesus – Who Was Simon Of Cyrene? – An Easter Message For Good Friday Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 19, 2024

At this Easter time, we are looking at Simon of Cyrene who carried the cross for the Lord. He was God’s provision for the journey to the cross, and Jesus was the Father’s provision for the sins of the world. We examine Simon of Cyrene from the Gospel accounts and link with Isaac.

INTRODUCING THE MAN SIMON OF CYRENE As commentators often like to do, there is a lot of speculation about Simon of Cyrene. There are so many ideas why he was in Jerusalem and what he was doing on the ...read more

Going The Extra Mile

Contributed by Yesua Cengiz on Nov 30, 2024

Simon Of Cyrene: A Poor And Blessed Man

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Mar 10, 2025

When Simon of Cyrene was forced to carry Jesus's cross, he probably was upset. But that was a blessing in disguise. If he had not been forced to carry Jesus’ cross, he might not have known Jesus and received His grace.

Let’s read Mark 15:16-32. Last week we learned that even though Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, he eventually gave in to the pressure of the crowd who wanted Jesus crucified. Verse 15 says: “Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them. But he flogged Jesus and handed him over ...read more
