Three Gardens Surrounding Calvary

John 19:41 makes a simple statement “there was a garden”. This message deals with three gardens that impact what we believe about Christ’s death. In the garden of Eden, Adam and Eve disobeyed God and brought sin and death on all of us. In Gethsemane, Jesus obeyed the Father and assumed the place of sinless sacrifice. He took the cup for us. Near Golgotha there was a garden with a tomb close by. From that tomb Jesus rose to conquer death for us. These three gardens carry a powerful message of sin, sacrifice and hope.
