Good morning dear people. Let’s look at the 7 recorded sayings of Jesus on the cross. “Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Unlike Pilate and the Jewish leaders these soldiers did not know the enormity of their sin of crucifying the Lord of glory. “Today you will be with Me in paradise.” Jesus’ promise to the repentant thief on the cross. Hope in the midst of sorrow. “Dear woman here is your son, and to the disciple (John), here is your mother.” Jesus turning care of His mother to the “beloved disciple.” “My God my God why have you forsaken me.” Jesus had to be forsaken because He had become sin for us. “I am thirsty.” His humanity emphasized. “It is finished.” The price of redemption had been paid in full. “Father into your hands I commit my spirit.” We will all say that at some point, best to know the person who said that upon the cross. God bless all of you. Thanks for reading and watching.
