On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,

The emblem of suffering and shame;

And I love that old cross where the dearest and…

The Crowd Shouts, Crucify him!

The biblical accounts from Luke 23 and Matthew 27:

When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had wanted to see him; in fact, he was hoping to see him perform some sort of miracle. He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave no answer. The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him.…

On Trial

On Trial. (drawn mostly from Luke 22 and 23)

It seems impossible, definitely so unfair, but Jesus was on trial for his life. 'We don't need any more witnesses; we heard all we need to hear,' Caiaphas said, sending Jesus to Pilate, governor of Judah. They bound him, led him away and handed him over to the governor. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness, the Jews did not enter the palace; they wanted to be able to eat the…

You are Right saying I AM

You are Right saying I AM [the Son of God] Easter, 2015

Jesus finished his agonizing prayer in the Garden, and returned to his men, just in time for his friend, Judas, to step forward and kiss him, betraying his Lord, our Lord, and ensuring those who had come to arrest him, that he was indeed ‘The Man’.

The story continues—

“The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking him and beating him. They blindfolded him and demanded, "Prophesy! Who…

Jesus in Gethsemane

Jesus in Gethsemane. Easter, 2015

Misunderstood by the men he loves the most, Jesus finishes the Passover dinner with them, and then departs the Upper Room, and begins the quiet march toward his arrest. Tonight, Jesus returns once more to the Mount of Olives, and stops in the garden that we hold so dear, the Garden of Gethsemane. We watch as Jesus prays to his Father, about the agony that is soon to come upon him - Luke 22.39-46.

Think for a…

What happened that night before … Easter?

What happened that night before … Easter? Luke 22.14-23

At sundown of that same Passover day so very long ago, thirteen men met to celebrate with dinner in a great gray hall, in an upper room in a house on Mount Zion, in the northeast corner of Jerusalem. In the tall-roofed chamber, with heavy beams holding up the ceiling, likely the only furnishings were rattan divans and a long oaken table, on which tall candles were burning. Picture with me the…
