Easter's true meaning
The Death of Jesus
For the next 60 seconds, set aside whatever
You're doing and take this opportunity! Let's see if Satan
Can stop this.
THE (SCIENTIFIC) DEATH OF JESUS
At the age of 33,Jesus was condemned to the death.
At the time, Crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst Criminals were condemned to be crucified. Yet it was even more dreadful for Jesus, unlike. Other criminals condemned to death by Crucifixion, Jesus was to be nailed to the Cross by His hands and feet.
Each nail Was 6 to 8 inches long.
The nails Were driven into His wrist. Not Into His palms as is commonly Portrayed. There's a tendon in the wrist that Extends to the shoulder. The Roman guards knew That when the nails were being hammered into the
Wrist that tendon would tear and Break, forcing Jesus to use His back
Muscles to support himself so that He could Breath.
Both of His feet Were nailed together. Thus He was forced to Support Himself on the single nail that Impaled His feet to the cross. Jesus could Not support himself with His legs because of the pain So He was forced to alternate between arching His Back then using his legs just to continue to Breath. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the Suffering, the courage.
Jesus endured this Reality for over 3 hours.
Yes, Over 3 hours! Can you imagine this kind of Suffering? A few minutes before He died, Jesus stopped bleeding. He was simply pouring water
From his wounds.
From common images We see wounds to His hands and feet and even the spear wound To His side... But do we realize His wounds Were actually made in his body. A hammer Driving large nails through the wrist, the feet overlapped And an even large nail hammered through the arches, then a
Roman guard piercing His side with a spear. But, Before the nails and the spear Jesus was whipped and Beaten. The whipping was so severe that it tore the Flesh from His body. The beating so horrific that His Face was torn and his beard ripped from His face. The Crown of thorns cut deeply into His scalp. Most men Would not have survived this torture.
He had no more blood To bleed out, only water poured from His Wounds. The human adult body contains about 3.5 liters (just less than a gallon) of blood.
Jesus poured all 3.5 Liters of his blood; He had three nails hammered into His members; a crown of thorns on His head and, beyond
That, a Roman soldier who stabbed a spear into His Chest..
All these without Mentioning the humiliation He suffered after carrying His own Cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd spat in his
Face and threw stones (the cross was almost 30 kg of weight, Only for its higher part, where His hands were Nailed).
Jesus had To endure this experience, to open the Gates of Heaven, So that you can have free Access to God.
So that your sins Could be "washed" away. All of them, with no exception!
Don't ignore this situation.
JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR YOU!
He died for you! It Is easy to pass jokes or foolish photos by e-mail, but When it comes to God, sometimes you feel ashamed to forward
To others because you are worried of what they may think
About you.
God Has plans for you, show all your friends what He experienced
To save you. Now think about this! May God bless your
Life!

Thank you for sharing this Gene. xoxoxo
Thanks to Gene for posting this, and now my reply will help bump it up to where more people can benefit. Judy
I love Jesus for what he did
He endured so much, and yet he never said a harsh word, and never sinned.
He set such a perfect example for us all.
He showed such great love for humankind, even the undeserving.
That movie the Passion of the Christ, really made me relize what he did do on that cross.
Sniff.
I am so grateful for his love and gift of his life for mine.
