    3 Crosses @ Calvary

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 15, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,474 views

    This incident, on the road to Calvary, and then at the sight of the crucifixion, reveals both God and man as they truly are. It exposes man as incredibly cruel, and God as amazingly kind and compassionate. It is man who is evil, and God who is good.

    Opening illustration: If you were to look at Rembrandt’s painting of The Three Crosses, your attention would be drawn first to the center cross on which Jesus died. Then as you would look at the crowd gathered around the foot of that cross, you’d be impressed by the various facial expressions and ...read more

    When one is edified, he is letting the Word powerfully have its effect in a Spirit filled manner.

    Edification or "built up" in the Faith Pastor W. Max Alderman Text: Col.3: 16-21 Introduction: To be edified or "built up" in the faith requires that a man be filled with the spirit and obedient to the Word. In reality a person cannot be filled with the spirit who ...read more

     | 4,310 views

    Part 1 of a 2 part series on the Death and Burial of Jesus. By integrating the gospels, we can easily see all of the details provided in all four gospels. This message is the crucifixion story in a logical order with nothing added to Scripture and nothing taken away.

    Luke 23:26-34 As the chief priests led Jesus away to be crucified, they laid hold of Simon the Cyrenain. Simon, (the father of Alexander and Rufus - Mark 15:21), was coming out of the country. They laid the cross on him, so that he could carry it behind Jesus. A great company of people and women ...read more

     | 296 views

    There were four distinct groups at the cross, watching Jesus Died. Ony one of them knew and loved Jesus. Today, we must recognise the three other groups, if we are live alongside them.

    Matthew 27:35-37 35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots. 36 And sitting down, they kept watch over him there. 37 Above his head they placed the written charge against him, ”this is Jesus, the king of the Jews”.

    Learn how to finish life well from the example of Jesus Christ on the cross.

    We continue our message series to prepare us for Easter.

    Has the church today gone off message?

    The Wisdom and Power of the Cross 1 Corinthians 1:19-31 We see crosses portrayed on many coats-of-arms which serve as a badge of power. Royal families have crosses. But this was not always the case. In Jesus’ time, wearing a cross would have been utterly shocking. Crucifixion was so horrible that ...read more

    At Calvary, heaven’s greatest treasure was revealed — where justice and mercy meet, sin is broken, and every seeker finds redemption through Christ’s cross.

    INTRODUCTION — THE TREASURE WE’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR Every child dreams of buried treasure. We’ve all seen the movies — a worn map, a red “X,” a promise whispered through time: “Somewhere out there, something precious is waiting to be found.” But what if I told you that the greatest treasure in the ...read more

    Hope in the midst of suffering.

    JESUS UPON THE CROSS. Psalm 22:1-15. The details of the sufferings in Psalm 22:1-21 match more exactly the anguish of Jesus upon the Cross than anything that we can find in any of the written records of David’s life - and because of this the church has always read this Psalm of David as a ...read more
