Typically we talk about the Crucifixion of Jesus at Easter time.
Which makes sense.
But in the business of life, especially with all of our summer plans coming up.
It’s so easy to forget about that sacrifice and the life it provides us as we go about our year.
So today serves as a reminder of the cross and what Jesus provides us.
And as a call to turn to Jesus for those here today who don’t know Him.
Mark 15:21–32 (ESV)
And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross.
And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull).
And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it.
And they crucified him and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.
And it was the third hour when they crucified him.
And the inscription of the charge against him read, “The King of the Jews.”
And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.
And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads and saying, “Aha!
You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself, and come down from the cross!”
So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, “He saved others; he cannot save himself.
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may see and believe.”
Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.
So let’s walk through this.
With the knowledge of how all this played out, it’s easy for us to downplay the evil that took place here.
They were crucifying the Son of God!
v.24.
“And they crucified him and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.”
Crucifying him
casting lots for his stuff.
v. 26 - they mock him writing a sign that said
“The king of the Jews.”
Mocked him for claiming he’d destroy the temple and build in 3 days when it took 46 years to build the temple.
While he was dying on the cross they said things like “He saved others, and he can’t even save himself.”
When I looked up the word crucifixion, this is what came up as the definition.
“The practice of executing certain criminals by staking their hands and feet to a cross as punishment for their crimes.”
Executing criminals!
Jesus died a criminals death.
This is the ultimate example of injustice.
