Easter. Part-Four.

‘Nailed.’

They took him out and beat Him, the Roman soldiers mocked Him, then they forced Him to carry His stake to the place outside the city of Jerusalem. There He was nailed to a cross bar and lifted up on to the stake, one either side of Him were two murderers, thieves. They even joined in the mockery, but one recanted and asked the Messiah for mercy.  Matthew 27:27-56,   Mark 15:16-41,   Luke 23:26-49,   John 19:16-37.

Jesus promised he would be in glory with Him soon.  Luke 23:42-43.

Where will you be this Easter as you eat your chocolate eggs? Will you continue to join the crowds mocking and laughing at Jesus? Will you continue in your empty traditions of even going to ‘Church?’

Or will you finally see yourself, change your attitudes and walk with Him, not looking back?  John 6:29,   Romans 10:9,   Amos 5:4.

Easter. Part-One.

Betrayal.

Easter is not just what it has become, about bunny’s, chicks and chocolate eggs.

Easter is about the death of Jesus the one and only Son of God, for the eternal Salvation of all who have and are and will place their trust in Him by faith.

Today we live in an anti-God society, full of selfishness and pleasure, religion is being pushed aside, especially ‘Christianity.’ In the failure of others (Sin) we have found a way to make excuses, but this only to cover up our own failings.

Judas was an idealist, he wanted Jesus to be that great promised King, who would rid the Roman rule of Israel and restore the Kingdom. But he was also a pilfering thief. His motives done for money, he believed would reveal divine power at work. But he was blinded by his own logic and greed.

Matthew 10:4,  Luke 22:3,  John 6:71,  13:29,  18:2.
