Murder of Jesus
And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.
Forgiveness is Upward
Maintain a proper relationship with the Father while suffering
Focus on the Father
This is a Prayer
If Prayer is not the First thing you do it should be the next thing that you do.
This is Intercession
Sinners need prayer
Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many,
and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,
because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
yet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.
Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.

Luke
Them = us
And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
