For the next 60 seconds, set aside whatever
You’re doing and take this opportunity!
Let’s see if Satan can stop this.
At the age of 33,
Jesus was condemned to 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
Breathe.
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
Breathe. 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!
60
Seconds with God…
For the next 60
Seconds, set aside what you’re doing and take
This opportunity! Let’s see if Satan can stop
This.
All you have to do
Is:
Simply
1. Pray for the person who sent this message to
You:
2. Then, send this
Message to people.. I know someone has to read this.
People will
1. Pray for you and you will make that many people pray to God
For other people.
2. Take a
Moment to appreciate the power of God in your life, for
Doing what pleases Him.
He said (Matthew 10:32 and 33): ” Therefore, all
Whoever recognizes me before others, I will recognize him too.
In front of my father in heaven; but the one who denies me
Before others, I will deny it before my father in heaven “.
Share it in your groups right now before it’s too late and before Satan win. If you share God wins in your life. God bless yall!

all pictures of what is suppose to be jesus should not be put up anywhere, to have sush pictures is classed as idolatry same as statues meddles and anything else that is suppose to represent God or mary or saints, look up the 2 commandment in the bible
Richard Suarez
That law would apply to pictures of favorite movie stars, Fish you have caught, Animal heads and bird mounts and figurines. Let us not forget Bronzed footballs and the rooster and turkey ceramics you have in the kitchen. You can’t have it both ways. Wait a minute the LAW was disannuled and done away with at the cross. We NO longer are under the LAW and if you believe different than you are not a Christian, you are a legalistic Jew. Enjoy your new religion.

yes – just do it Ray E Horton William DeArteaga lets publish some NEW books Neil Steven Lawrence is about ready too
Leonard J. Ransil
Troy Day, I already DID publish some books, waiting for you on Amazon – in print form …. OR on Kindle for only $.99 each, the lowest price allowed. The most comprehensive one is “Is There An Elephant In YOUR Church?” I also have a songbook on Amazon of 100 Original songs, based totally on the New Covenant revelation of Jesus’ Finished Work on Calvary and beyond that reinforce the content of my “Elephant” book. It is Foundational to Pentecostal Theology. But be forewarned – the book is in 3 parts with 222,000 words, needed to uncover why the Elephant (The Law) is still so entrenched in most churches today – and the “solution” is Romans 8:2 where the Law of the Spirit of Life has replaced the (Mosaic) Law for Christians. What a deal – for only 99 cents. ✝️??
Varnel Watson
finished work is genuine heresy BUT I wouldnt expect nothing less from you Dont know about Ray E Horton
Ray E Horton
Troy Day What are you talking about, “heresy.” It’s basic to the Gospel. Suggest you get and read some of Lenny’s books, and you will see what I mean.
Varnel Watson
Ray E Horton you mean finished work ? Calvinism is BY NO means basic to any GOSPEL 🙂
Ray E Horton
Troy Day I am not talking Calvinism, and neither is Lenny. Finished work simply means that Jesus established the New Covenant at the cross, and now, when received by faith, His grace is sufficient. The Gospel isn’t about our good works. The works follow. It’s about His grace and our faith. That is indeed basic to the Gospel and Christianity.
Leonard J. Ransil
Troy, Jesus the “rose of Sharon is nothing like Calvin’s “TULIP.” – as in Predestination – if that is your assumption of what I wrote. So, when Jesus said” It Is Finished.” what do you think He meant? In other words, what ALL did Jesus accomplish on Calvary? My book describes that, and much more, in great detail – based on Jesus’ Gospel of the New Covenant that He revealed directly to Paul – alluded to in 2 Corinthians 12:1-6, which happened in about 42 AD. This Gospel is the basis of Pentecostal Theology – that Jesus revealed to Paul.
Varnel Watson
Leonard J. Ransil so thou art a TULIP heretic 🙂 oh well
