Forgiveness on Mt Calvary

Most tombstones at cemeteries share some things in common like the name of the person, their birthdate and death date, and some words of tribute like “Loving husband and devoted father,” or “Much loved wife to John and mother to James and Daniel,” or “Beloved daughter, forever young, forever beautiful,” or “Our son, always in our hearts.” What do you want etched in stone on your tomb? What message do you want to send out from your grave? There is a tombstone outside of Sydney, New York, with no name on it, and no dates. It just has a one-word inscription, merely three syllables: “FORGIVEN.” That’s worthy of consideration for all Christians as Luke 23:33-49 describes 3 wonderful truths about the forgiveness of Jesus.
