And so tonight, as we do this, 25 00:01:36,500 --> 00:01:39,600 we've got songs that are that are queued up for us to worship 26 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,400 with that hopefully are somewhat familiar to you. 27 00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:49,400 Most of them are hymns and they're reflecting on the cross 28 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,100 of Christ. His crucifixion, his death, his 29 00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:56,600 The Ransom that he's paid for us salvation, we have in him alone. 30 00:01:57,300 --> 00:01:59,400 And so tonight, that's what we're here for, and will receive 31 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,100 communion toward the end of the service tonight. 32 00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:06,600 But I invite you to reflect on the Lord to think on him to 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,900 remember the cross to praise him for it, by it. 34 00:02:10,900 --> 00:02:14,600 We are we're saved.

So here we have a prophecy, some 43 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,500 700 or so years before. Christ, walk the earth talking 44 00:02:43,500 --> 00:02:48,200 about The death of Christ prophesied that the Messiah 45 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,200 would come that he would suffer and that by him many could be 46 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,400 redeemed, many could receive righteousness. 47 00:02:55,900 --> 00:03:00,700 And so let's read this first one here who has believed what he 48 00:03:00,700 --> 00:03:06,300 has heard from us and to whom has the arm of the Lord been 49 00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:10,000 revealed.

You guys can have a seat. 143 00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:38,400 If you have your Bible, go ahead and turn to John chapter 19. 144 00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:46,700 Look at John chapter 19 tonight briefly. 145 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,900 Anyway here, at the end of The Book of John. 146 00:17:49,900 --> 00:17:54,100 We have the, an account of the crucifixion, at least John's 147 00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:58,300 account of the crucifixion and. And so I wanted us to look at 148 00:17:58,300 --> 00:18:01,300 that tonight and make just a few observations about what the 149 00:18:01,300 --> 00:18:07,700 crucifixion reveals for us. And and so let me just read to 150 00:18:07,708 --> 00:18:11,000 you, John 19 or reach 16 through 22. 151 00:18:11,100 --> 00:18:18,800 To, to start. and so, he Delivered him over to them to be 152 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,800 crucified. And so they took Jesus and he 153 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:27,500 went out bearing his own cross to the place called the place of 154 00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:31,400 a skull, which in Aramaic is called Golgotha. 155 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:37,000 There They Crucified him. And with him two others, one on 156 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,400 either side, and Jesus between them pilot. 157 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,800 Also wrote an inscription, and put it on the cross. 158 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,200 It read Jesus of Nazareth, the king of the Jews. 159 00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:55,700 Many of the Jews read this inscription for the place where 160 00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:59,300 Jesus was crucified was near the city and it was written in 161 00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:05,000 Aramaic and Latin and in Greek. And so it went out this message, 162 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:10,300 went out to everyone in the area And so, the chief Priests of the 163 00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:14,700 Jews said to pilate, do not write the king of the Jews, but 164 00:19:14,700 --> 00:19:20,000 rather, this man said, I am the king of the Jews. 165 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,600 The Jews would have thought, this is a necessary distinction 166 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,100 because They're not going to want to be responsible for 167 00:19:28,100 --> 00:19:32,500 crucifying the king of the Jews, but rather They Crucified him 168 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,900 because by their estimation, he was blasphemous. 169 00:19:39,300 --> 00:19:42,300 Pilate answered what I have written. 170 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,800 I have written. I like his response. 171 00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:51,500 These first few verses that we look at here in this passage, 172 00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:58,900 they reveal to us the humiliated King. here we see a humiliated 173 00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:05,600 King and we've missed some Of the passage about his what led 174 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,100 up to the crucifixion. The things that he endured, on 175 00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:12,700 the way to the cross. But what would have happened is 176 00:20:12,700 --> 00:20:16,300 when he was delivered to the soldiers to be crucified, the 177 00:20:16,700 --> 00:20:19,800 soldiers would have taken him and scourged him. 178 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,000 This was known as the Roman verbier, Otto It's the most 179 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,600 horrible kind of beating the scourging was often called the 180 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,900 halfway death because you were halfway there by the time it was 181 00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:39,600 over. Jesus would have been on his 182 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:45,800 knees hands tied down. He would have been whipped with 183 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,800 the deadly flag room, which is a Whip made of multiple leather 184 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:55,300 strands with bone and metal attached to it meant for tearing 185 00:20:55,300 --> 00:20:59,300 the skin, especially the skin on the back, which would be up 186 00:20:59,300 --> 00:21:02,600 against the cross as a man hung on it. 187 00:21:05,100 --> 00:21:08,900 After the scourging they would have made Christ, they did make 188 00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:14,900 Christ carry his cross. As the customary action of a 189 00:21:14,900 --> 00:21:19,600 Roman crucifixion is to have to carry your cross y. 190 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,900 If you parade around a man who has broken the law of Rome, 191 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,500 You're less likely to have people break the laws of Rome, 192 00:21:29,500 --> 00:21:32,900 right? You advertise his punishment, 193 00:21:32,900 --> 00:21:37,400 you advertise his crucifixion, And so it would have been a 194 00:21:37,408 --> 00:21:39,200 parade of sorts. They would have taken the long 195 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:44,600 route just so that more could see more could be warned against 196 00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:49,900 breaking the laws of Rome. Upon arriving at the place of a 197 00:21:49,900 --> 00:21:54,800 skull, the gotha Christ would have been laid on the Cross 198 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,400 Beam. His hands would have been 199 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:03,900 quickly nailed into the cross, then he would be raised up and 200 00:22:03,900 --> 00:22:07,200 his feet would be dangling until the soldiers drove a nail 201 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:12,300 through both feet. leaving him just enough Flex in his knees, 202 00:22:12,300 --> 00:22:17,000 to begin the horrible up and down motion necessary, for 203 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,400 breathing, that is with whatever strength you can muster, you 204 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:28,100 remove that asphyxiation for a moment, as you Propel yourself 205 00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:32,400 upward by whatever strength is left in your legs for as long as 206 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,700 you can, You can imagine this would be hard to do when you 207 00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:41,300 can't breathe correctly. That's horrifying, is all of 208 00:22:41,300 --> 00:22:47,900 that is and it is horrifying. This is nothing compared to the 209 00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:53,500 moment where our sins were poured out on him. 210 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,900 And in that moment he experienced a separation from 211 00:22:58,900 --> 00:23:02,000 the father that he had never known before. 212 00:23:04,100 --> 00:23:07,600 This is significant because the sun had always from eternity, 213 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:15,400 past been in perfect harmony with the father. even to, This 214 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:20,600 place now. Recall the moments of Christ in 215 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,100 the Garden of Gethsemane before. He's arrested. 216 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,600 And he's praying, Lord. If It Be Your Will, or father, 217 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,100 if it be, your will take this cup from me. 218 00:23:31,900 --> 00:23:36,200 Nothing is impossible for you, but nevertheless not my will 219 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:42,100 your will be done. Christ was committed. committed 220 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,400 to obeying his father committed to the Redemption of mankind, 221 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,700 committed to being that suffering servant that we 222 00:23:48,700 --> 00:23:55,300 started the service reading about And so he humbled himself 223 00:23:56,300 --> 00:23:59,200 it's what Philippians 2 tells us that he humbled himself taking 224 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,700 on the form of man that he gave up. 225 00:24:04,100 --> 00:24:12,300 The glories of Heaven to become like us. so that He could die on 226 00:24:12,300 --> 00:24:16,400 a cross, so that we may be saved from our sin. 227 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,700 And so, the king of kings was crucified. 228 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,000 It's not merely the king of the Jews. 229 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,200 This is the king of kings, who goes to the cross. 230 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,700 And Pilots inscription that was put on the cross was meant to 231 00:24:29,900 --> 00:24:33,400 incite anger for the Jews. Like, he's meaning this too to 232 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,900 make them angry because he was a bit upset by the whole thing. 233 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,700 If you remember he washed his hands of this case. 234 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:47,600 His blood is not on my hands. He said He wasn't sure that 235 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,100 Jesus had done anything worthy of a crucifixion. 236 00:24:53,700 --> 00:24:55,300 And so it did in sight, the Jews. 237 00:24:56,100 --> 00:24:59,100 And but what pilot meant is a way to show ROM, security of 238 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,000 superiority over the Jews, that we've crucified, the king of the 239 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,200 Jews. John means for us to see the 240 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,100 true Messianic King crucified for our sins. 241 00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:12,800 That this is the king of kings pilot. 242 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,500 Unknowingly became God's Herald of redemption. 243 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:22,500 He unknowingly is broadcasting to all of those in the area. 244 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:29,300 That this is the messiah. And so Jesus humiliated to the 245 00:25:29,300 --> 00:25:35,000 point of death, he died as the king of an otherworldly Kingdom, 246 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,700 a king from the king of a kingdom. 247 00:25:37,700 --> 00:25:43,700 That's not of this world. He died for the church, he died 248 00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:46,200 for his bride. He died for his body. 249 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,100 He died. So that you and I can be made 250 00:25:49,100 --> 00:25:53,600 pure from our sin and to enjoy eternal life with him. 251 00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:02,400 Once for all time, if you skip down to verses 28 and 30 there 252 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:10,400 in 19, It says this it says after this which is a moment 253 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,400 where he's observing some soldiers below him, casting lots 254 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,600 for his garments and he's seeing his mother there with some other 255 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,200 ladies, but we get to this point. 256 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:24,200 Now, we're says after this here in verse 28, Jesus knowing that 257 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:28,600 all was now finished said to fulfill the scripture in 258 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,600 parentheses. I thirst. 259 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,500 And a Jar full of sour wine stood there. 260 00:26:35,500 --> 00:26:39,600 So they put a sponge full of the sour wine on the hyssop branch 261 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,500 and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the sour 262 00:26:43,500 --> 00:26:50,800 wine, he said it is finished. And he bowed his head and he 263 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,700 gave up his spirit. Crucifixion of Christ reveals 264 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:01,900 redemptions completion. The Redemption is complete. 265 00:27:01,900 --> 00:27:08,100 It is finished but the jar of sour wine is is different. 266 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,600 If you're familiar with the story, you know, about the wine 267 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,500 that was mixed with myrrh that was offered to him which was a 268 00:27:13,500 --> 00:27:19,800 kind of sedative He's refusing anything that would make him and 269 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:26,500 his physical body, not feel the weight of the cross, the pain, 270 00:27:26,500 --> 00:27:29,000 the suffering of the cross in that moment. 271 00:27:29,500 --> 00:27:34,000 And this is a different moment here, where the sour wine is 272 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,300 offered for a different purpose. This wine is used to quench 273 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,100 thirst, it's there for the soldiers who were working And 274 00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,400 it's there for them to drink, it's their, their Gatorade, if 275 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:51,200 you will. But the theological logical 276 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,600 significance of this moment is is really incredible. 277 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:59,500 The sourwine reminds us of the cup that the father has for 278 00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:02,600 Jesus, right? If it be your will let this cup 279 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,000 pass from me, was the phrasing that Christ used in the garden. 280 00:28:07,700 --> 00:28:11,100 The cop that Christ is talking about is the bitter cup of God's 281 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:17,200 Wrath. And Christ having just drink the 282 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:23,500 bitter cup of God's Wrath. Now, drinks the bitter wine. 283 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,100 Jesus thirst was, The Thirst of the Messiah. 284 00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:34,000 We have in Psalm 22 a prophesy of Christ on the cross. 285 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,700 And so much of what's written in Psalm 22 takes place. 286 00:28:39,300 --> 00:28:43,400 Including the words that Christ says takes place on the cross 287 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:48,300 but here is the psalmist in Psalm 22 writing from the point 288 00:28:48,300 --> 00:28:53,000 of view prophecy this point of view of Christ and he's saying I 289 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,600 am poured out like water and all my bones are out of joint. 290 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,200 My heart is like Wax it is melted within my breast, my 291 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:06,100 strength is dried up like a potsherd and my tongue To my 292 00:29:06,100 --> 00:29:13,600 jaws, you lay me in the dust of death, for dogs, and Compass me 293 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,200 a company of evildoers. In circles me, they have 294 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:23,400 pierced, my hands and feet, I can count all my bones they 295 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,600 stare and gloat over me. They divided my garments among 296 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,200 them. And for my clothing, they have 297 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,900 cast lots. And so the thirst that Christ 298 00:29:33,900 --> 00:29:35,500 has is the thirst of the Messiah. 299 00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:39,700 It's the thirst. Of the one who is prophesied in 300 00:29:39,700 --> 00:29:45,300 Psalm 22, but The Thirst that he has is also our thirst. 301 00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:51,200 Jesus became thirsty for us, so that we would never thirst 302 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,300 again. Amen. 303 00:29:52,300 --> 00:29:56,700 And John 4:14, he's visiting with the woman of Samaria and he 304 00:29:56,700 --> 00:30:01,400 says this to hurry says, but whoever drinks the water that I 305 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,400 will give him will never be thirsty again. 306 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,800 The water that I will give him will become in him, a spring of 307 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,600 water, welling up to eternal life. 308 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,900 Now as we've been going through John 3, you know that this water 309 00:30:16,100 --> 00:30:19,600 is Is the spirit. It's a reference to the spirit 310 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,500 of God that will dwell in a person. 311 00:30:21,500 --> 00:30:25,200 And now living water will spring up from them. 312 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,700 But even more fascinating. Then maybe the sour wine and the 313 00:30:32,708 --> 00:30:36,900 fact that Christ is thirsty and he died to satisfy once for all 314 00:30:36,900 --> 00:30:43,200 our thirst even more fascinating is the fact that the wine is 315 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,000 raised up on a hyssop branch. If you started a bible plan at 316 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,500 the beginning of the year, you you probably made it at least 317 00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:55,400 through this part of Exodus right by now where you make it 318 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,600 through the plagues and you remember the final plague, 319 00:30:58,700 --> 00:30:59,800 right? And exodus. 320 00:31:01,100 --> 00:31:06,800 God says, I'm going to kill the firstborn of every household Mel 321 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,800 and animal firstborn. Male of both humans and animals 322 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:17,900 of every household. And so he instructed Moses to 323 00:31:17,908 --> 00:31:22,500 have the Israelites, take the blood of a lamb and spread it 324 00:31:22,500 --> 00:31:25,600 over their doorposts. But do you know what they were 325 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,600 told to spread it with hyssop branch. 326 00:31:29,900 --> 00:31:34,400 Hyssop branch. And if they were to do this, the 327 00:31:34,500 --> 00:31:38,100 the angel of death that would pass through the city that night 328 00:31:38,100 --> 00:31:41,400 would pass over their homes and they would be safe. 329 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,400 And so here God is reminding Us in the way that Christ is 330 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,900 crucified and all the events of the Cross. 331 00:31:48,900 --> 00:31:53,400 He's reminding us that Jesus Christ is the true Passover 332 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,400 Lamb. Its this is the True Blood of 333 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,600 the Lamb which will remove death from your home forever. 334 00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:08,200 He's the lamb who is sent to drink the bitter cup of God's 335 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:13,800 Wrath toward sin. And as he wet his lips, He was 336 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,800 able to unstick his tongue from a side of his mouth. 337 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,900 He's able to get rid of that cotton mouth as we call it here 338 00:32:19,900 --> 00:32:26,500 in the south and able to cry out Taytay last eye. 339 00:32:28,100 --> 00:32:34,900 Or it is finished. But the phrase takes a list. 340 00:32:34,900 --> 00:32:38,500 I doesn't mean that something is like done then and then there's 341 00:32:38,500 --> 00:32:41,500 still work to do when you say tail has died, you're saying 342 00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:44,500 this job is complete. So it's not like when you go to 343 00:32:44,500 --> 00:32:47,100 work and your boss finally says at the end of the day alright 344 00:32:47,100 --> 00:32:49,000 it's time to go home. I'll see you in the morning. 345 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,900 This is like when you complete a project at work and it's done 346 00:32:54,900 --> 00:32:58,000 for good. All right, Titleist. 347 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:03,000 I you have you have finished the project once and for all it will 348 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,000 always be finished. It will never be undone. 349 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:18,100 This is the beauty of the cross. Jesus completely finishes, the 350 00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:21,200 work that the father commanded him to do. 351 00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:26,500 And because Jesus cried out, it is finished and gave up his 352 00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:29,200 Spirit. You and I now get the crap. 353 00:33:29,300 --> 00:33:32,600 Hallelujah, and receive his spirit, amen. 354 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,900 We get to be born again. Born, a new born from above as 355 00:33:38,900 --> 00:33:41,900 we've been looking at in John 3, on Sundays. 356 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,400 Nothing more needs to be done for your salvation, not now not 357 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,200 ever. It is finished, if you will 358 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,700 place your faith on the cross of Christ Jesus on his perfect 359 00:33:54,700 --> 00:34:02,300 sacrifice, you will be saved. If you have, you are saved from 360 00:34:02,300 --> 00:34:09,199 your sins. Your debt has been paid in full, 361 00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:15,000 you owe nothing. Except your obedience to God. 362 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:24,199 He became a curse for you. He became separated from God, by 363 00:34:24,199 --> 00:34:30,199 your sin, in your place, so that you would never have to know the 364 00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:38,500 separation of God. Again, And in verses, 31 through 365 00:34:38,507 --> 00:34:45,300 37, we get the final thing. I want to look at here since it 366 00:34:45,300 --> 00:34:48,300 was the day of preparation. And so that the bodies would not 367 00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:51,199 remain on the cross on the Sabbath for that Sabbath was a 368 00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:54,600 high day. The Jews asked pilate that their 369 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:58,400 legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. 370 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:02,600 So, the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the 371 00:35:02,607 --> 00:35:06,100 other who had been crucified, these criminals, who Christ had 372 00:35:06,100 --> 00:35:12,300 been crucified wide width. But when they came to Jesus and 373 00:35:12,300 --> 00:35:15,700 saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 374 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,000 But one of the soldiers, pierced his side with a spear and at 375 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,700 once there came out blood and water, he who saw it has borne 376 00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:27,700 witness. This testimony is true and he 377 00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:29,500 knows that he is telling the truth. 378 00:35:29,500 --> 00:35:32,200 That's John saying you better listen to me. 379 00:35:32,900 --> 00:35:39,800 I've seen this and he says, I've written this so that you also 380 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,900 May believe. Verse 36, we read for these 381 00:35:43,900 --> 00:35:47,400 things, took place at the scripture, might be fulfilled, 382 00:35:48,100 --> 00:35:50,600 not one of his bones will be broken. 383 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,900 The scriptures, say, and again, another scripture says, they 384 00:35:53,900 --> 00:35:57,800 will look on him, whom they have pierced which we read earlier 385 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:03,300 and Isaiah 53. And so the crucifixion of Christ 386 00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:08,300 reveals the Sinners heart, it reveals where we are. 387 00:36:08,300 --> 00:36:12,800 And when we read verse 37, here, I'll read it again to you. 388 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,600 But we, and again, another scripture says they will look, 389 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:22,200 they will look on him whom they have pierced, we should see a 390 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:26,400 double meaning, it is prophecy. Fulfilled, Zechariah 12:10 says 391 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,800 and I will pour out on the House of David and the inhabitants of 392 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,900 Jerusalem, a spirit of Race and pleas for mercy. 393 00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:37,100 So that when they look on me on him whom they have pierced, they 394 00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:41,600 show mourn for him as One Mourns for an only child and weep 395 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:48,300 bitterly over him is one weeps over a firstborn The crucifixion 396 00:36:48,300 --> 00:36:52,900 reveals the sinful hearts of man and it reveals the gracious 397 00:36:52,900 --> 00:36:59,200 please of for Mercy from God. That the cross is the coming 398 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:03,200 together of the tragedy of man's sin and the good news of 399 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:08,300 Salvation to all who believe we have at the Cross of Christ, the 400 00:37:08,300 --> 00:37:13,800 wrath of God satisfied. So that the believer might be 401 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:20,000 justified But there's a prophecy that Still Remains to be filled 402 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,200 Revelation 17, we read this behold. 403 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,900 He is coming with the clouds and every eye will see him even 404 00:37:27,900 --> 00:37:34,000 those who pierced him. When it says, Those Who pierced 405 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,900 him, do you think it has in mind, only the Roman soldiers, 406 00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:41,900 who jab, the spear into his side or drove the nails through his 407 00:37:41,900 --> 00:37:43,800 hands? No. 408 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:50,600 It has in mind, every unbeliever, every person really, 409 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:55,500 but certainly every unbeliever who is not trusted in Christ for 410 00:37:55,508 --> 00:37:59,000 the Forgiveness of their sins, their sin is not yet covered. 411 00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:02,100 So, the looking on him, whom they have pierced and all the 412 00:38:02,100 --> 00:38:07,600 tribes of the earth will well on account of him, even so, amen. 413 00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:12,400 John writes there in Revelation 1, so the humiliated King Jesus 414 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,100 will return to Earth as the Exalted King Of Heaven and Earth 415 00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:21,400 and upon his coming Philippians 2 tells us that every knee will 416 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,100 bow. And every tongue will confess 417 00:38:24,100 --> 00:38:29,300 that Jesus is Lord. When you first hear this, you 418 00:38:29,300 --> 00:38:33,000 might think well. This is universalism. 419 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,800 Every knee bow. And every tongue confess has. 420 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,100 This means that everyone must be saved, right? 421 00:38:41,100 --> 00:38:45,200 No. Satan recognizes that Christ is 422 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:51,300 King. But he's as damned as any person 423 00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:57,200 or Angel could ever be some. What this verse is saying that 424 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,600 some will Proclaim Christ is Lord. 425 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,100 To their coronation ceremony. It's a celebration of the life 426 00:39:06,100 --> 00:39:10,000 that they've been given by Christ, their King my Christ, 427 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,500 their slain Land by Christ their Savior. 428 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:19,100 And then, for others. It's their condemnation. 429 00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:24,900 Committal the recognizing too late that Christ is the savior. 430 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,800 And so, it's a really dark picture. 431 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,700 We get in Philippians 2, we recognize that Christ is King. 432 00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:37,300 He's Lord over Heaven and Earth. And then in the same moment, we 433 00:39:37,300 --> 00:39:41,300 recognize that not everyone will see this. 434 00:39:45,700 --> 00:39:48,700 In this passage, we see that Jesus is Bones remained 435 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,900 unbroken. This was the fill to fulfill 436 00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:54,100 scripture. It was customary for the 437 00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:57,200 Passover Lamb to not have his bones broken. 438 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,900 There was a process for how you killed the lamb, you slayed the 439 00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:06,800 lamb that you were going to partake of And so, Jesus died. 440 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,700 As the true Passover Lamb, he died as the one who truly takes 441 00:40:10,700 --> 00:40:13,500 away the sin of the world. Jesus wasn't just crucified 442 00:40:13,500 --> 00:40:17,300 between two criminals, he was crucified for criminals as a 443 00:40:17,300 --> 00:40:22,400 criminal. God made him to be sin who knew 444 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:26,700 no sin, so that you, and I might become the righteousness of God. 445 00:40:27,700 --> 00:40:31,700 Second Corinthians, 5:21, there's nothing more significant 446 00:40:31,700 --> 00:40:35,200 on Earth for us to do than to repent of our sins. 447 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:39,000 And to submit ourselves to the rural and the reign of Jesus 448 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,800 Christ. It will cost you your life. 449 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:49,200 Make no mistake. To submit to Christ is costly. 450 00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:53,900 It requires your life, your desires, your hopes, your 451 00:40:53,900 --> 00:41:00,400 dreams. But you will gain true life from 452 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,400 him. You will gain life. 453 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,500 That is eternal life that is abounding. 454 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,000 With the fruit of the spirit, love, and joy and peace. 455 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,200 Kindness and patience and self-control faith. 456 00:41:21,300 --> 00:41:24,500 May we all tonight be able to say with Paul as he writes to 457 00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:29,000 the Galatians 2:20 as he's admonishing them. 458 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:35,000 He's encouraging them stand on Christ alone and he says this he 459 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,700 says I have been crucified with Christ. 460 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:46,400 It is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me and the 461 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,600 life. I now live in the flesh, I live 462 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:56,100 by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for 463 00:41:56,100 --> 00:41:59,800 me. Amen, let's pray Heavenly. 464 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:04,400 Father we love you. God, we are so grateful for your 465 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,700 word and your kindness toward us father help us to trust in 466 00:42:08,700 --> 00:42:12,900 Christ, help us To see ourselves as men and women and boys and 467 00:42:12,900 --> 00:42:17,400 girls help us to know to know Salvation in Christ and help us 468 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,900 to see ourselves as those who have been crucified with Christ. 469 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,100 It's no longer I who live but Christ who lives in US. 470 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,800 God, we thank you for the life that we have received eternal 471 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:36,400 life life that we know both right now in part and life that 472 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:40,300 we will know in full when we're with you and Heaven. 473 00:42:42,900 --> 00:42:44,800 God, we thank you for Jesus Christ. 474 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,000 We thank you for the cross in Christ's name. 475 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,500 I pray, amen, amen.

You're not walking in 483 00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:19,400 unrepentant sin. Then we invite you to take 484 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:23,400 communion with us tonight.

And so in a moment they're going 487 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,000 to begin passing those out and here's what I would ask you to 488 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:34,300 do is as they're passing that out. 489 00:43:34,300 --> 00:43:37,700 Would you would you reflect on the cross? 490 00:43:37,700 --> 00:43:41,200 Would you spend time thinking brother, you spend time in 491 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,700 Repentance, maybe confession if you need that? 492 00:43:51,500 --> 00:43:53,800 Maybe there's something to commit yourself to tonight as 493 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:58,600 you reflect on the cross or Just Praise, right? 494 00:43:59,100 --> 00:44:02,200 Just genuine heartfelt.

We have one of the accounts of 508 00:48:00,500 --> 00:48:05,500 Christ in the upper room where where the Lord's Supper gets its 509 00:48:05,500 --> 00:48:09,300 birth. And says when the hour came, he 510 00:48:09,300 --> 00:48:13,000 reclined at the table and the apostles were with him. 511 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:18,000 And he said, I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover 512 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:24,400 with you before I suffer. For I tell you I will not eat it 513 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:32,900 until it is fulfilled. in the kingdom of God And he took the 514 00:48:32,900 --> 00:48:36,100 cup and took he took a cup and when he had given thanks. 515 00:48:36,100 --> 00:48:38,600 He said take this and divide it among yourselves. 516 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,600 So for I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit 517 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:50,200 of the vine until the kingdom of God comes and he took bread and 518 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,000 when he had given thanks, he broke it and he gave it to them 519 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:59,300 saying this is my body which is given for you do this in 520 00:48:59,300 --> 00:49:01,600 remembrance of me. Amen. 521 00:49:03,700 --> 00:49:07,000 Heavenly Father we thank you for the broken body of your son 522 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:12,800 Jesus. We thank you that he became 523 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,900 flesh. He became like us so that he 524 00:49:16,900 --> 00:49:21,800 might die in our place. And is he broke that bread he 525 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,400 was saying my body will be broken. 526 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,400 I'm suffering.

The reason he endured the cross 530 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,600 was for the joy, that was set before him. 531 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,300 Which is redemption, the Redemption of his people. 532 00:49:54,500 --> 00:49:57,300 And so we say thank you for the for the body of Christ. 533 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:18,500 Amen. in verse 20, here in Luke 22, it 534 00:50:18,500 --> 00:50:25,800 says in, likewise the cup After they had eaten and he said this 535 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:31,100 cup that is poured out for you.

But he blessed before he gave to 540 00:50:45,100 --> 00:50:46,500 him. But here we read about it. 541 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,300 There was a cop that he had given. 542 00:50:48,300 --> 00:50:51,600 Thanks for.
