This week’s podcast is going to look at the climax of Passion Week, the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ, and what that means for us. I limit the application to Jesus’ suffering in Gethsemane, His betrayal, arrest, faux trial and beatings, His scourging, His condemnation to death in a mock trial, suffering that brutal walk to the hill of the cross, His agonizing hours on the cross, His cry of loneliness in His final minutes, His final breath, the lancing of His side, and His burial in a borrowed tomb secured by a Roman guard.
“Passion” means something someone suffered.
Why is this week important? Why is the Passion of Christ—the death of Jesus Christ—important? Because of all of the weeks in the year, of all accounts in the Bible, this drives home to man the magnitude of sin, the consequences of it, and what God went through—what Jesus went through to save you from it. It’s an eternal lesson, with eternal consequences, which is wrapped in the love of God toward men—you and me.
