The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ | John 19:16b-27

When Jesus gets up on the cross, He gets up on His throne. Jesus is King because He did what no one else can do. No one else can say they’ve never sinned. No one else has perfectly kept the law. No one else has completed a greater act of love than the cross. Christ’s cross marked a turning point in history. It changed the world. But have you allowed it to change your life? When you begin to grasp that Jesus went through all of this suffering because He loves you, it will change your life. “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” -Romans 5:8 Take-Home Message: King Jesus was crucified to free me from condemnation. King Jesus was… Crucified for the Condemned (16b-18). Crucified by His own people (19-22). Lessons for the Churchv  The greatest threats come from the inside, not the outside.v  Spiritual pride is the worst form of pride.v  Failure happens when we fear man more than God. Crucified to fulfill Scripture (23-24). Crucified for His followers (25-27). Message: The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ Scripture: John 19:16b-27 Simple.
