Cross
Scripture Passage: John
19:28-30
This shows us the human suffering of Jesus on the
cross. He was very thirsty. So they gave Him vinegar
on a sponge to drink. But we also see the triumph of
Jesus when He said "It is finished". For
Jesus the fight was over and won even on the cross. He
knew the joy of victory. He finished His work and knew
He had done a faithful job. When
we suffer can we too still be victorious Christians?
Questions:
1. What did they put on the sponge?
Vinegar.
2. Did Jesus do a faithful job even in His suffering?
Yes.
3. How can we become victorious Christians in suffering?
By
living close to Jesus every day.
Memory verse: John
3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. (NLT)
