00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.600
 We're going to start in at verse 32, as we think about Jesus' death.

00:00:13.980 --> 00:00:20.699
 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with Jesus to be executed.

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:28.039
 When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there along with the criminals,

00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:30.300
 one on his right, the other on his left.

00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:39.560
 Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.

00:00:40.879 --> 00:00:44.120
 And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.

00:00:45.460 --> 00:00:48.399
 The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him.

00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:55.500
 They said, He saved others. Let him save himself if he's God's Messiah, the Chosen One.

00:00:55.500 --> 00:00:59.320
 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.

00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:05.719
 They offered him wine vinegar and said, If you're the King of the Jews, save yourself.

00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:12.280
 There was written a notice above him which read, This is the King of the Jews.

00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:17.219
 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him.

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:21.819
 Aren't you the Messiah? Save yourself and us.

00:01:21.819 --> 00:01:25.479
 But the other criminal rebuked him.

00:01:26.399 --> 00:01:32.259
 Don't you fear God, he said, since you are under the same sentence?

00:01:32.939 --> 00:01:37.259
 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve.

00:01:37.699 --> 00:01:39.899
 But this man has done nothing wrong.

00:01:41.579 --> 00:01:48.079
 Then he said, Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.

00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:56.599
 Jesus answered him, Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.

00:01:58.599 --> 00:01:59.859
 Let's pray.

00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:11.599
 Father, these are familiar words.

00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:15.819
 It's a familiar scene to us.

00:02:17.979 --> 00:02:21.340
 We've sung about the death of the Lord Jesus.

00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:22.939
 We've read about it.

00:02:25.259 --> 00:02:28.120
 And we pray that as we look at it afresh,

00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:30.959
 that is what it will be.

00:02:31.219 --> 00:02:33.439
 It will be fresh to us today.

00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:44.759
 That this event in history would touch our lives today.

00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.740
 And would fill our hearts with joy.

00:02:52.740 --> 00:02:56.180
 And would send us out motivated afresh.

00:02:56.180 --> 00:02:59.360
 To live for you.

00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:00.460
 To serve you.

00:03:01.260 --> 00:03:03.040
 To enjoy you.

00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:09.500
 And to look forward with absolute assurance.

00:03:11.020 --> 00:03:14.260
 That we too will be in paradise.

00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:19.260
 Father, help us now we ask in Jesus name.

00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:20.800
 Amen.

00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:20.900
 Amen.

00:03:20.900 --> 00:03:20.939
 Amen.

00:03:26.180 --> 00:03:30.060
 Look at verse 34.

00:03:31.620 --> 00:03:34.400
 They're the most extraordinary words.

00:03:35.780 --> 00:03:39.120
 Father, forgive them.

00:03:40.300 --> 00:03:41.939
 This is why Jesus has come.

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.960
 This is the climax of Jesus' journey to Jerusalem.

00:03:47.180 --> 00:03:52.819
 In fact, this is the fulfillment of God's eternal plan.

00:03:52.819 --> 00:03:59.519
 Just flick back a couple of chapters to chapter 18, verse 31.

00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:11.299
 As Jesus himself read the scriptures, the Old Testament,

00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:17.740
 it became clear to him why he had come.

00:04:18.740 --> 00:04:20.000
 Verse 31.

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.160
 Jesus took the twelve aside and told them,

00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:26.980
 We are going up to Jerusalem,

00:04:27.220 --> 00:04:31.779
 and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man,

00:04:32.220 --> 00:04:33.060
 that's Jesus,

00:04:33.379 --> 00:04:34.819
 will be fulfilled.

00:04:36.459 --> 00:04:39.139
 He will be handed over to the Gentiles.

00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:41.860
 They will mock him.

00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:44.339
 They will insult him.

00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:46.079
 They will spit on him.

00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:50.699
 They will flog him and kill him.

00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:55.699
 Back to chapter 23.

00:04:57.180 --> 00:05:02.799
 And now as Jesus faces into the fulfillment of all that was promised,

00:05:03.459 --> 00:05:05.740
 as Jesus now faces death,

00:05:05.860 --> 00:05:06.959
 he prays,

00:05:07.899 --> 00:05:10.659
 Father, forgive them.

00:05:10.660 --> 00:05:13.720
 It's an incredible moment because,

00:05:14.700 --> 00:05:16.820
 well, just picture the scene.

00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.120
 Look at who Jesus is speaking to from the cross.

00:05:20.760 --> 00:05:25.900
 Jesus is offering forgiveness to those who are killing him and mocking him.

00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:26.860
 Verse 35.

00:05:27.320 --> 00:05:28.800
 The people stood watching,

00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.440
 and the rulers even sneered at him.

00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:35.000
 These were the same people who,

00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:36.160
 hours earlier,

00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:38.439
 were vying for his blood.

00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:40.800
 If you look back at verse 20.

00:05:44.100 --> 00:05:45.899
 Wanting to release Jesus,

00:05:46.139 --> 00:05:48.199
 Pilate appealed to them again.

00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:50.040
 But they kept shouting,

00:05:50.259 --> 00:05:51.519
 Crucify him!

00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:52.879
 Crucify him!

00:05:52.879 --> 00:06:00.120
 But Jesus not only offers forgiveness to this bloodthirsty crowd.

00:06:01.060 --> 00:06:02.759
 Look at verse 36.

00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:07.399
 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.

00:06:09.699 --> 00:06:12.219
 These were the same soldiers who just,

00:06:12.740 --> 00:06:13.740
 hours before,

00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:14.959
 had punched him,

00:06:15.719 --> 00:06:16.659
 beaten him,

00:06:17.500 --> 00:06:19.819
 and nailed him to the cross.

00:06:19.819 --> 00:06:22.159
 Father,

00:06:23.159 --> 00:06:25.120
 forgive them.

00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:29.279
 Now, I don't know about you,

00:06:29.379 --> 00:06:30.480
 but if I were Jesus,

00:06:30.659 --> 00:06:31.939
 I would want revenge.

00:06:32.980 --> 00:06:34.779
 I'd be asking the Father

00:06:34.779 --> 00:06:37.759
 to let the same things happen to them.

00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:39.980
 After all, it's what they deserve.

00:06:40.740 --> 00:06:41.879
 But not Jesus.

00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:43.459
 He's not bitter.

00:06:44.659 --> 00:06:46.159
 He's not angry.

00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.460
 Peter, one of the disciples,

00:06:49.700 --> 00:06:51.420
 the one who had denied him,

00:06:52.220 --> 00:06:53.500
 witnessed these events,

00:06:53.640 --> 00:06:55.439
 and he later wrote about them

00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:57.360
 and recorded them in his book,

00:06:58.080 --> 00:06:58.800
 First Peter.

00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:01.140
 This is what he says.

00:07:02.280 --> 00:07:04.500
 When they hurled their insults,

00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:07.600
 he did not retaliate.

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:09.780
 When he suffered,

00:07:10.580 --> 00:07:12.220
 he made no threats.

00:07:12.220 --> 00:07:16.040
 Instead, he entrusted himself to him

00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:18.620
 who judges justly.

00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:23.480
 But what's even more amazing,

00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:27.200
 Jesus is speaking these words to us.

00:07:28.180 --> 00:07:29.840
 Father, forgive them.

00:07:30.900 --> 00:07:31.920
 Forgive me.

00:07:33.100 --> 00:07:34.120
 Forgive you.

00:07:35.060 --> 00:07:35.440
 You see,

00:07:35.740 --> 00:07:37.260
 we all need forgiveness.

00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:39.320
 We've all turned against God,

00:07:39.500 --> 00:07:40.360
 blamed God,

00:07:40.500 --> 00:07:41.440
 ignored God.

00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:42.959
 Like the disciples,

00:07:43.139 --> 00:07:43.819
 as we saw,

00:07:44.300 --> 00:07:45.379
 we betray him.

00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:46.439
 We deny him.

00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:48.279
 In fact,

00:07:48.379 --> 00:07:49.699
 God takes our behavior

00:07:49.699 --> 00:07:50.959
 towards one another

00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:52.120
 personally.

00:07:53.259 --> 00:07:54.639
 God has made us.

00:07:54.699 --> 00:07:55.639
 He owns us.

00:07:55.980 --> 00:07:57.079
 We belong to him.

00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:58.819
 And he loves us.

00:07:59.620 --> 00:08:01.139
 So every time

00:08:01.139 --> 00:08:02.579
 I hurt someone

00:08:02.579 --> 00:08:03.860
 with my words

00:08:03.860 --> 00:08:05.420
 or harm someone

00:08:05.420 --> 00:08:06.699
 with my actions,

00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:09.000
 it's not just

00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.000
 the other person

00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:10.920
 who is offended.

00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:13.879
 God takes personal offense

00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.100
 because we belong to him.

00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:19.500
 So every time

00:08:19.500 --> 00:08:20.500
 we sin against

00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:21.480
 another person,

00:08:21.939 --> 00:08:23.780
 we are acting

00:08:23.780 --> 00:08:24.840
 in defiance

00:08:24.840 --> 00:08:25.900
 against God.

00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:28.460
 We are sinning

00:08:28.460 --> 00:08:29.280
 against him.

00:08:31.060 --> 00:08:32.360
 So we just

00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:33.620
 don't need forgiveness

00:08:33.620 --> 00:08:34.600
 from others.

00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:36.820
 We all need to be

00:08:36.820 --> 00:08:38.440
 forgiven by the Father.

00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:40.360
 God takes

00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:41.440
 to be forgiven.

00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:41.860
 But how can I be forgiven?

00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:44.320
 How can you be forgiven

00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:45.280
 of all those

00:08:45.280 --> 00:08:47.420
 private sins,

00:08:47.560 --> 00:08:48.500
 the ones we keep

00:08:48.500 --> 00:08:49.240
 locked up

00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:50.540
 that no one knows about?

00:08:51.340 --> 00:08:53.460
 Or even the shameful ones

00:08:53.460 --> 00:08:54.180
 that, well,

00:08:54.300 --> 00:08:55.280
 people have seen

00:08:55.280 --> 00:08:55.960
 and do know?

00:08:57.740 --> 00:08:58.940
 Well, first,

00:09:00.280 --> 00:09:00.740
 forgiveness

00:09:00.740 --> 00:09:01.880
 is costly.

00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:03.700
 Look again

00:09:03.700 --> 00:09:04.679
 where Jesus is

00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:05.820
 when he offers

00:09:05.820 --> 00:09:06.759
 forgiveness.

00:09:07.019 --> 00:09:07.860
 Verse 33.

00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:10.220
 When they came

00:09:10.220 --> 00:09:10.919
 to the place

00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:11.980
 called the skull,

00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:13.200
 they crucified

00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:14.039
 him there

00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:15.620
 along with

00:09:15.620 --> 00:09:16.620
 the criminals,

00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:17.700
 one on his right,

00:09:17.840 --> 00:09:18.379
 the other

00:09:18.379 --> 00:09:19.700
 on his left.

00:09:21.100 --> 00:09:22.299
 And Jesus said,

00:09:22.460 --> 00:09:22.740
 Father,

00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:23.580
 forgive them

00:09:23.580 --> 00:09:25.460
 for they do not

00:09:25.460 --> 00:09:26.620
 know what they are doing.

00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:28.679
 He's offering,

00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:30.459
 for Jesus is not

00:09:30.459 --> 00:09:31.779
 offering forgiveness

00:09:31.779 --> 00:09:33.559
 from the comfort

00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:34.259
 of a seat

00:09:34.259 --> 00:09:35.120
 by the pool.

00:09:36.179 --> 00:09:37.299
 Jesus is hanging

00:09:37.299 --> 00:09:38.299
 from a cross.

00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:40.179
 He's being executed.

00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.000
 He is being tortured

00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:42.779
 to death.

00:09:45.299 --> 00:09:46.739
 Crucifixion was designed

00:09:46.739 --> 00:09:47.679
 by the Romans

00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:49.399
 to make people suffer.

00:09:50.419 --> 00:09:52.079
 It could take days

00:09:52.079 --> 00:09:53.639
 for people to die.

00:09:54.579 --> 00:09:55.819
 You died slowly

00:09:55.819 --> 00:09:56.479
 in agony

00:09:56.479 --> 00:09:57.299
 and in pain.

00:09:57.299 --> 00:10:00.000
 Listen to how

00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:00.919
 one doctor

00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:01.899
 describes

00:10:01.899 --> 00:10:02.539
 what would have

00:10:02.539 --> 00:10:02.919
 happened

00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:03.599
 as someone

00:10:03.599 --> 00:10:04.979
 was crucified.

00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:07.939
 As the arms

00:10:07.939 --> 00:10:08.740
 fatigue,

00:10:09.259 --> 00:10:10.159
 great waves

00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:10.859
 of cramps

00:10:10.859 --> 00:10:11.559
 sweep over

00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:12.219
 the muscles,

00:10:12.979 --> 00:10:13.500
 knotting them

00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:14.039
 in deep,

00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:14.679
 relentless,

00:10:15.099 --> 00:10:15.899
 throbbing pain.

00:10:17.099 --> 00:10:17.799
 Air can be

00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:18.879
 drawn into the lungs

00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:19.740
 but it can't

00:10:19.740 --> 00:10:20.979
 be exhaled.

00:10:21.899 --> 00:10:22.779
 Jesus fights

00:10:22.779 --> 00:10:23.919
 to raise himself

00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:24.799
 in order to get

00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:26.740
 one short breath.

00:10:27.299 --> 00:10:29.740
 Hours of limitless pain,

00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:31.679
 cycles of twisting,

00:10:31.979 --> 00:10:33.259
 joint-rending cramps,

00:10:33.719 --> 00:10:34.939
 intermittent partial

00:10:34.939 --> 00:10:35.919
 asphyxiation,

00:10:36.779 --> 00:10:37.779
 searing pain

00:10:37.779 --> 00:10:38.879
 as flesh is torn

00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:40.459
 from his lacerated back

00:10:40.459 --> 00:10:42.000
 as he moves up and down

00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:43.000
 against the timber.

00:10:44.219 --> 00:10:45.500
 The heart is now

00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:46.599
 struggling to pump

00:10:46.599 --> 00:10:47.839
 heavy, thick,

00:10:48.319 --> 00:10:49.339
 sluggish blood

00:10:49.339 --> 00:10:50.459
 into the tissues.

00:10:50.460 --> 00:10:52.440
 The lungs are making

00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:53.460
 a frantic effort

00:10:53.460 --> 00:10:54.139
 to grasp,

00:10:54.300 --> 00:10:55.040
 to gasp in

00:10:55.040 --> 00:10:56.139
 small gulps

00:10:56.139 --> 00:10:57.220
 of air.

00:10:59.680 --> 00:11:00.460
 You see,

00:11:00.540 --> 00:11:01.480
 the point is,

00:11:02.340 --> 00:11:03.280
 forgiveness

00:11:03.280 --> 00:11:04.840
 is not easy,

00:11:05.680 --> 00:11:07.379
 it's costly.

00:11:09.379 --> 00:11:10.440
 Tim Keller

00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:11.139
 in his book

00:11:11.139 --> 00:11:13.980
 The Reason for God

00:11:13.980 --> 00:11:14.780
 illustrates

00:11:14.780 --> 00:11:15.620
 the point

00:11:15.620 --> 00:11:16.980
 very well.

00:11:16.980 --> 00:11:17.740
 let me read

00:11:17.740 --> 00:11:18.539
 to you.

00:11:20.019 --> 00:11:20.580
 Imagine

00:11:20.580 --> 00:11:22.360
 that someone

00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:23.639
 borrows your car

00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:25.639
 and as he

00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:26.320
 backs it out

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:27.039
 of the driveway

00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:28.519
 he strikes a gate,

00:11:29.820 --> 00:11:30.800
 knocking it down

00:11:30.800 --> 00:11:31.399
 along with

00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:32.379
 part of a wall.

00:11:33.680 --> 00:11:34.399
 Your property

00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:35.100
 insurance

00:11:35.100 --> 00:11:35.820
 doesn't cover

00:11:35.820 --> 00:11:36.300
 the gate

00:11:36.300 --> 00:11:37.200
 and garden wall.

00:11:37.700 --> 00:11:38.659
 What can you do?

00:11:39.460 --> 00:11:40.360
 There are essentially

00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:41.560
 two options.

00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:43.259
 the first

00:11:43.259 --> 00:11:44.079
 is to demand

00:11:44.079 --> 00:11:44.879
 that he pay

00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:45.679
 for the damages.

00:11:46.839 --> 00:11:47.379
 The second

00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:48.379
 is to refuse

00:11:48.379 --> 00:11:49.139
 to let him

00:11:49.139 --> 00:11:50.099
 pay anything.

00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:52.199
 There also

00:11:52.199 --> 00:11:52.619
 may be

00:11:52.619 --> 00:11:53.379
 middle-of-the-road

00:11:53.379 --> 00:11:53.879
 solutions

00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:54.559
 in which you

00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:55.519
 both share

00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:56.079
 the payment.

00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:57.459
 Notice

00:11:57.459 --> 00:11:58.119
 that in

00:11:58.119 --> 00:11:59.199
 every option

00:11:59.199 --> 00:12:00.779
 the cost

00:12:00.779 --> 00:12:01.559
 of the damage

00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:02.679
 must be borne

00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:03.839
 by someone.

00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:05.799
 Either you

00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:07.199
 or he

00:12:07.199 --> 00:12:08.239
 absorbs

00:12:08.239 --> 00:12:09.000
 the cost

00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:10.000
 for the deed.

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:11.779
 but the debt

00:12:11.779 --> 00:12:12.659
 does not

00:12:12.659 --> 00:12:13.259
 somehow

00:12:13.259 --> 00:12:13.919
 vanish

00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:15.220
 into thin air.

00:12:16.340 --> 00:12:16.860
 Forgiveness

00:12:16.860 --> 00:12:17.620
 in this

00:12:17.620 --> 00:12:18.179
 illustration

00:12:18.179 --> 00:12:18.779
 means

00:12:18.779 --> 00:12:19.720
 bearing

00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:20.659
 the cost

00:12:20.659 --> 00:12:21.679
 for his

00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:22.440
 misdeed

00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:23.480
 yourself.

00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:26.100
 So let's

00:12:26.100 --> 00:12:26.500
 just think

00:12:26.500 --> 00:12:26.980
 about that

00:12:26.980 --> 00:12:27.740
 for a moment.

00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.019
 If that's

00:12:30.019 --> 00:12:30.980
 your car

00:12:30.980 --> 00:12:32.200
 how would

00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:32.980
 you respond

00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:33.639
 if someone

00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:34.139
 is taking

00:12:34.139 --> 00:12:34.899
 your car

00:12:34.899 --> 00:12:35.860
 and crushed

00:12:35.860 --> 00:12:36.200
 it?

00:12:37.139 --> 00:12:37.799
 Well

00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:38.840
 you can either

00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:39.820
 take revenge

00:12:39.820 --> 00:12:41.340
 that means

00:12:41.340 --> 00:12:41.820
 you make

00:12:41.820 --> 00:12:42.500
 them pay

00:12:42.500 --> 00:12:42.920
 for what

00:12:42.920 --> 00:12:43.420
 they did

00:12:43.420 --> 00:12:43.840
 and they

00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:44.320
 have to

00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:44.960
 cover all

00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:45.680
 the costs

00:12:45.680 --> 00:12:47.460
 or you

00:12:47.460 --> 00:12:48.440
 can forgive.

00:12:50.280 --> 00:12:50.740
 You see

00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:51.720
 true forgiveness

00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:52.680
 means that

00:12:52.680 --> 00:12:54.440
 you refuse

00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:54.960
 to make

00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:55.680
 them pay

00:12:55.680 --> 00:12:57.180
 and you

00:12:57.180 --> 00:12:57.820
 bear the

00:12:57.820 --> 00:12:58.340
 cost

00:12:58.340 --> 00:12:59.060
 yourself.

00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:00.740
 If it's

00:13:00.740 --> 00:13:01.400
 revenge

00:13:01.400 --> 00:13:02.600
 well they

00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:03.040
 pay

00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:04.540
 and they

00:13:04.540 --> 00:13:05.100
 suffer.

00:13:05.820 --> 00:13:06.520
 If it's

00:13:06.520 --> 00:13:07.020
 forgiveness

00:13:07.019 --> 00:13:07.220
 forgiveness

00:13:07.220 --> 00:13:08.699
 you pay

00:13:08.699 --> 00:13:10.340
 and you

00:13:10.340 --> 00:13:10.840
 suffer.

00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:12.240
 You see

00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:12.740
 forgiveness

00:13:12.740 --> 00:13:13.600
 is never

00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:14.120
 easy

00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:14.860
 it's

00:13:14.860 --> 00:13:15.539
 costly.

00:13:17.059 --> 00:13:18.000
 If someone

00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:18.699
 hurts you

00:13:18.699 --> 00:13:19.120
 through the

00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:19.679
 words they

00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:20.079
 say

00:13:20.079 --> 00:13:21.220
 you can

00:13:21.220 --> 00:13:21.980
 take revenge

00:13:21.980 --> 00:13:22.539
 and say

00:13:22.539 --> 00:13:23.460
 hurtful words

00:13:23.460 --> 00:13:24.000
 back to

00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:24.220
 them.

00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:25.299
 You can

00:13:25.299 --> 00:13:26.059
 make them

00:13:26.059 --> 00:13:26.620
 suffer

00:13:26.620 --> 00:13:28.000
 or

00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:29.399
 you can

00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:29.759
 forgive

00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:30.639
 and refuse

00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:31.159
 to say

00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:32.139
 hurtful words

00:13:32.139 --> 00:13:32.620
 back.

00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:33.960
 You have

00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:34.980
 to absorb

00:13:34.980 --> 00:13:36.080
 the hurt.

00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:37.379
 You have

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.040
 to bear

00:13:38.040 --> 00:13:39.019
 the suffering

00:13:39.019 --> 00:13:40.120
 yourself.

00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:42.160
 You see

00:13:42.160 --> 00:13:42.639
 forgiveness

00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:43.280
 is never

00:13:43.280 --> 00:13:43.840
 easy

00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:44.860
 it's

00:13:44.860 --> 00:13:45.420
 costly

00:13:45.420 --> 00:13:46.980
 and that's

00:13:46.980 --> 00:13:47.300
 what's

00:13:47.300 --> 00:13:47.660
 happening

00:13:47.660 --> 00:13:48.259
 on the

00:13:48.259 --> 00:13:48.620
 cross.

00:13:49.060 --> 00:13:49.379
 Jesus

00:13:49.379 --> 00:13:50.120
 is taking

00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:51.200
 my sin

00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:52.240
 your sin

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:53.060
 Jesus

00:13:53.060 --> 00:13:53.720
 pays

00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:54.600
 Jesus

00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:55.220
 suffers

00:13:55.220 --> 00:13:58.259
 rather

00:13:58.259 --> 00:13:58.900
 than take

00:13:58.900 --> 00:13:59.720
 revenge

00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:01.379
 rather

00:14:01.379 --> 00:14:02.160
 than pay

00:14:02.160 --> 00:14:02.840
 back

00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:04.580
 Jesus

00:14:04.580 --> 00:14:05.280
 pays

00:14:05.280 --> 00:14:06.139
 the debt

00:14:06.139 --> 00:14:07.139
 Jesus

00:14:07.139 --> 00:14:07.980
 offers

00:14:07.980 --> 00:14:09.080
 forgiveness.

00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:11.399
 So

00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:11.840
 first

00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:12.480
 forgiveness

00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:14.259
 is always

00:14:14.259 --> 00:14:14.960
 costly.

00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:16.940
 Second

00:14:16.940 --> 00:14:17.480
 forgiveness

00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:18.160
 means

00:14:18.160 --> 00:14:19.399
 death.

00:14:20.540 --> 00:14:21.240
 If you

00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:21.560
 or I

00:14:21.560 --> 00:14:21.879
 are to

00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:22.620
 experience

00:14:22.620 --> 00:14:23.139
 forgiveness

00:14:23.139 --> 00:14:24.000
 then Jesus

00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:25.460
 must die

00:14:25.460 --> 00:14:26.340
 instead

00:14:26.340 --> 00:14:26.960
 of us.

00:14:27.500 --> 00:14:27.879
 Look at

00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:28.200
 what the

00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:28.700
 people are

00:14:28.700 --> 00:14:29.200
 saying to

00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:29.560
 Jesus

00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:30.040
 on the

00:14:30.040 --> 00:14:30.500
 cross.

00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:31.900
 Verse

00:14:31.900 --> 00:14:32.460
 35

00:14:32.460 --> 00:14:34.379
 the people

00:14:34.379 --> 00:14:34.740
 stood

00:14:34.740 --> 00:14:35.240
 watching

00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:36.139
 and the

00:14:36.139 --> 00:14:36.420
 rulers

00:14:36.420 --> 00:14:36.780
 even

00:14:36.780 --> 00:14:37.259
 sneered

00:14:37.259 --> 00:14:37.600
 at him.

00:14:37.680 --> 00:14:37.780
 They

00:14:37.780 --> 00:14:38.100
 said

00:14:38.100 --> 00:14:38.540
 he

00:14:38.540 --> 00:14:39.160
 saved

00:14:39.160 --> 00:14:39.840
 others

00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:41.080
 let him

00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:41.480
 save

00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:41.980
 himself

00:14:41.980 --> 00:14:42.360
 if he

00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:42.540
 is

00:14:42.540 --> 00:14:43.100
 God's

00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:43.600
 Messiah

00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:44.180
 the

00:14:44.180 --> 00:14:44.600
 chosen

00:14:44.600 --> 00:14:45.000
 one.

00:14:46.379 --> 00:14:46.620
 The

00:14:46.620 --> 00:14:47.000
 soldiers

00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:47.379
 also

00:14:47.379 --> 00:14:47.900
 came up

00:14:47.900 --> 00:14:48.400
 and mocked

00:14:48.400 --> 00:14:48.500
 him.

00:14:48.860 --> 00:14:48.960
 They

00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:49.259
 offered

00:14:49.259 --> 00:14:49.540
 him

00:14:49.540 --> 00:14:50.139
 wine

00:14:50.139 --> 00:14:50.580
 vinegar

00:14:50.580 --> 00:14:50.940
 which

00:14:50.940 --> 00:14:51.200
 was

00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:51.660
 to

00:14:51.660 --> 00:14:51.840
 kind

00:14:52.900 --> 00:14:53.100
 and

00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:53.360
 said

00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:53.840
 well

00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:54.000
 if

00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:54.120
 you

00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:54.259
 are

00:14:54.259 --> 00:14:54.440
 the

00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:54.680
 king

00:14:54.680 --> 00:14:54.820
 of

00:14:54.820 --> 00:14:54.980
 the

00:14:54.980 --> 00:14:55.420
 Jews

00:14:55.420 --> 00:14:56.519
 save

00:14:56.519 --> 00:14:57.080
 yourself.

00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:59.780
 well

00:14:59.780 --> 00:15:00.060
 Jesus

00:15:00.060 --> 00:15:00.480
 has a

00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:00.840
 choice

00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:01.080
 to

00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:01.440
 make.

00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:02.840
 Does

00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:03.040
 he

00:15:03.040 --> 00:15:03.540
 save

00:15:03.540 --> 00:15:04.139
 himself

00:15:04.139 --> 00:15:05.860
 or

00:15:05.860 --> 00:15:06.120
 does

00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:06.280
 he

00:15:06.280 --> 00:15:06.660
 save

00:15:06.660 --> 00:15:07.020
 you?

00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:08.740
 He

00:15:08.740 --> 00:15:09.139
 can't

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:09.400
 save

00:15:09.400 --> 00:15:09.879
 both.

00:15:11.160 --> 00:15:11.379
 He

00:15:11.379 --> 00:15:11.620
 must

00:15:11.620 --> 00:15:12.220
 choose.

00:15:13.060 --> 00:15:13.360
 If

00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:13.740
 Jesus

00:15:13.740 --> 00:15:14.139
 chooses

00:15:14.139 --> 00:15:14.400
 to

00:15:14.400 --> 00:15:14.700
 save

00:15:14.700 --> 00:15:15.220
 himself

00:15:15.220 --> 00:15:16.820
 then

00:15:16.820 --> 00:15:17.080
 you

00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:17.440
 die.

00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:18.940
 If

00:15:18.940 --> 00:15:19.340
 Jesus

00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:19.720
 chooses

00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:19.980
 to

00:15:19.980 --> 00:15:20.300
 save

00:15:20.300 --> 00:15:20.720
 you

00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.240
 then

00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:22.480
 he

00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:22.660
 will

00:15:22.660 --> 00:15:23.000
 die.

00:15:23.000 --> 00:15:24.080
 the

00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:24.679
 crowds

00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:24.960
 the

00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:25.460
 rulers

00:15:25.460 --> 00:15:25.779
 the

00:15:25.779 --> 00:15:26.299
 soldiers

00:15:26.299 --> 00:15:26.840
 who

00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:26.960
 are

00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:27.220
 all

00:15:27.220 --> 00:15:27.659
 watching

00:15:27.659 --> 00:15:27.899
 and

00:15:27.899 --> 00:15:28.299
 shouting

00:15:28.299 --> 00:15:28.559
 at

00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:28.879
 Jesus

00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:29.639
 don't

00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:30.159
 realize

00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:30.419
 that

00:15:30.419 --> 00:15:30.600
 if

00:15:30.600 --> 00:15:31.019
 Jesus

00:15:31.019 --> 00:15:31.519
 does

00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:31.899
 save

00:15:31.899 --> 00:15:32.419
 himself

00:15:32.419 --> 00:15:33.000
 they

00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:33.259
 could

00:15:33.259 --> 00:15:33.539
 never

00:15:33.539 --> 00:15:33.820
 be

00:15:33.820 --> 00:15:34.279
 forgiven.

00:15:36.179 --> 00:15:36.799
 So

00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:37.179
 Jesus

00:15:37.179 --> 00:15:37.679
 chose

00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:37.940
 to

00:15:37.940 --> 00:15:38.240
 die

00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:38.799
 for

00:15:38.799 --> 00:15:39.100
 them.

00:15:40.139 --> 00:15:40.379
 He

00:15:40.379 --> 00:15:40.700
 chose

00:15:40.700 --> 00:15:40.940
 to

00:15:40.940 --> 00:15:41.139
 die

00:15:41.139 --> 00:15:41.399
 for

00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:41.679
 me

00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:42.740
 and

00:15:42.740 --> 00:15:42.879
 he

00:15:42.879 --> 00:15:43.139
 chose

00:15:43.139 --> 00:15:43.360
 to

00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:43.580
 die

00:15:43.580 --> 00:15:43.820
 for

00:15:43.820 --> 00:15:44.100
 you.

00:15:45.220 --> 00:15:45.460
 And

00:15:45.460 --> 00:15:45.620
 we

00:15:45.620 --> 00:15:45.840
 need

00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:46.019
 to

00:15:46.019 --> 00:15:46.539
 understand

00:15:46.539 --> 00:15:47.039
 this

00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:47.279
 no

00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:47.559
 matter

00:15:47.559 --> 00:15:47.919
 how

00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:48.519
 familiar

00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:48.820
 it

00:15:48.820 --> 00:15:49.039
 may

00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:49.360
 be

00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.159
 that

00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:50.519
 when

00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:51.000
 Jesus

00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:51.399
 was

00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:51.899
 dying

00:15:51.899 --> 00:15:52.120
 on

00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:52.259
 the

00:15:52.259 --> 00:15:52.519
 cross

00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:52.679
 he

00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:52.860
 was

00:15:52.860 --> 00:15:53.259
 taking

00:15:53.259 --> 00:15:53.539
 the

00:15:53.539 --> 00:15:53.800
 sin

00:15:53.800 --> 00:15:53.980
 of

00:15:53.980 --> 00:15:54.860
 all

00:15:54.860 --> 00:15:55.180
 these

00:15:55.180 --> 00:15:55.700
 crowds

00:15:55.700 --> 00:15:57.300
 all

00:15:57.300 --> 00:15:57.600
 these

00:15:57.600 --> 00:15:58.240
 soldiers

00:15:58.240 --> 00:15:59.800
 all

00:15:59.800 --> 00:16:00.039
 the

00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:01.060
 insults

00:16:01.060 --> 00:16:02.180
 and

00:16:02.180 --> 00:16:02.399
 all

00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:02.580
 the

00:16:02.580 --> 00:16:02.899
 things

00:16:02.899 --> 00:16:03.100
 that

00:16:03.100 --> 00:16:03.240
 we

00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:03.379
 have

00:16:03.379 --> 00:16:03.620
 ever

00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:03.960
 done

00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:05.800
 he

00:16:05.800 --> 00:16:06.120
 chose

00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:06.360
 to

00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:06.580
 die

00:16:06.580 --> 00:16:06.820
 for

00:16:06.820 --> 00:16:07.060
 them

00:16:07.060 --> 00:16:07.980
 he

00:16:07.980 --> 00:16:08.440
 suffered

00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:08.680
 for

00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:08.919
 you

00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:09.080
 and

00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:09.300
 for

00:16:09.300 --> 00:16:09.580
 me

00:16:09.580 --> 00:16:10.779
 but

00:16:10.779 --> 00:16:10.980
 the

00:16:10.980 --> 00:16:11.399
 real

00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:12.080
 suffering

00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:13.039
 isn't

00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:13.220
 the

00:16:13.220 --> 00:16:13.840
 physical

00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:14.440
 suffering

00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:14.899
 it

00:16:14.899 --> 00:16:15.320
 wasn't

00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:15.539
 just

00:16:15.539 --> 00:16:15.740
 the

00:16:15.740 --> 00:16:16.240
 beating

00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:16.560
 and

00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:16.740
 the

00:16:16.740 --> 00:16:17.200
 nails

00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:17.480
 and

00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:17.639
 the

00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:18.019
 crown

00:16:18.019 --> 00:16:18.259
 of

00:16:18.259 --> 00:16:18.680
 thorns

00:16:18.680 --> 00:16:19.200
 it

00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:19.399
 was

00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:19.659
 the

00:16:19.659 --> 00:16:20.360
 spiritual

00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:21.019
 suffering

00:16:21.019 --> 00:16:21.300
 that

00:16:21.300 --> 00:16:21.460
 he

00:16:21.460 --> 00:16:21.680
 was

00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:22.220
 enduring

00:16:22.220 --> 00:16:22.940
 he

00:16:22.940 --> 00:16:23.200
 had

00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:23.420
 to

00:16:23.420 --> 00:16:23.840
 drink

00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:24.100
 the

00:16:24.100 --> 00:16:24.500
 cup

00:16:24.500 --> 00:16:26.220
 just

00:16:26.220 --> 00:16:26.440
 the

00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:26.680
 night

00:16:26.680 --> 00:16:27.180
 before

00:16:27.180 --> 00:16:27.440
 as

00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:27.560
 he

00:16:27.560 --> 00:16:27.740
 was

00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:27.920
 in

00:16:27.920 --> 00:16:28.120
 the

 to

00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:37.039
 them

00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:37.799
 why

00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:39.279

00:17:39.279 --> 00:17:39.920
 crime

00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:40.180
 has

00:17:40.420 --> 00:17:40.680
 man

00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:41.139

00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:43.480
 no

00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:43.980
 grounds

00:17:43.980 --> 00:17:44.200
 for

00:17:44.200 --> 00:17:44.379

00:17:45.259 --> 00:17:46.139

00:17:46.139 --> 00:17:46.460
 I

00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:46.599
 will

00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:46.839
 have

00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:47.000

00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:47.579
 and

 release

00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:48.399
 him

00:17:48.399 --> 00:17:48.960
 but

00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:49.220
 with

00:17:49.220 --> 00:17:49.680
 loud

00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:50.119
 shouts

00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:50.399
 they

00:17:50.399 --> 00:17:51.019
 intensely

00:17:51.019 --> 00:17:51.700
 demanded

00:17:51.700 --> 00:17:51.980
 that

00:17:51.980 --> 00:17:52.160
 he

00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:52.420
 be

00:17:52.420 --> 00:17:53.200
 crucified

00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:54.680
 and

00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:54.899
 their

00:17:54.899 --> 00:17:55.339
 shouts

00:17:55.339 --> 00:17:55.960
 prevailed

00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:57.259
 so

00:17:57.259 --> 00:17:57.779
 Pilate

00:17:57.779 --> 00:17:58.379
 decided

00:17:58.379 --> 00:17:59.039
 to grant

00:17:59.039 --> 00:17:59.259
 their

00:17:59.259 --> 00:17:59.799
 demand

00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:00.779
 he

00:18:00.779 --> 00:18:01.519
 released

00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:02.259
 the man

00:18:02.259 --> 00:18:02.619
 who had

00:18:02.619 --> 00:18:03.259
 been thrown

00:18:03.259 --> 00:18:04.160
 into prison

00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:05.559
 for insurrection

00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:06.379
 and murder

00:18:06.379 --> 00:18:08.240
 the one

00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:08.799
 they asked

00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:09.099
 for

00:18:09.099 --> 00:18:10.960
 and surrendered

00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:11.619
 Jesus

00:18:11.619 --> 00:18:12.759
 to their

00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:13.059
 will

00:18:13.059 --> 00:18:16.519
 that's where we

00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:17.079
 stand

00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.119
 Jesus has

00:18:19.119 --> 00:18:20.059
 paid the price

00:18:20.059 --> 00:18:20.859
 for all our

00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:23.879

00:18:23.879 --> 00:18:25.900
 our selfish

00:18:25.900 --> 00:18:26.599
 choices

00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:28.680
 the revenge

00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:29.240
 that we have

00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:30.019
 set out on

00:18:30.019 --> 00:18:30.519
 others

00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:32.119
 the lies

00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:33.200
 the greed

00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:34.740
 Jesus

00:18:34.740 --> 00:18:35.339
 chose

00:18:35.339 --> 00:18:36.059
 to save

00:18:36.059 --> 00:18:36.460
 us

00:18:36.460 --> 00:18:37.299
 by dying

00:18:37.299 --> 00:18:38.119
 for us

00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:39.539
 taking this

00:18:39.539 --> 00:18:40.160
 suffering

00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:40.980

00:18:40.980 --> 00:18:41.420
 place

00:18:41.420 --> 00:18:42.339

 so that

00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:44.920

00:19:13.980 --> 00:19:14.279
 skull

00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.819
 they crucified

00:19:15.819 --> 00:19:16.539
 him there

00:19:16.539 --> 00:19:17.240
 along with

00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:17.799
 the criminals

00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:18.440
 one on his

00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:18.819
 right

00:19:18.819 --> 00:19:20.419
 and the

00:19:20.419 --> 00:19:21.019
 other on his

00:19:21.019 --> 00:19:21.500
 left

00:19:21.500 --> 00:19:23.700
 and as

00:19:23.700 --> 00:19:24.799
 Jesus dies

00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:26.379
 they engage

00:19:26.379 --> 00:19:26.700
 in a

00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:27.480
 conversation

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:29.779
 two criminals

00:19:29.779 --> 00:19:31.899
 two responses

00:19:31.899 --> 00:19:33.319
 look at how

00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:34.220
 the first criminal

00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:35.059
 responds to

00:19:35.059 --> 00:19:35.579
 Jesus

00:19:35.579 --> 00:19:37.139
 verse 39

00:19:37.139 --> 00:19:38.799
 one of the

00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:39.480
 criminals who

00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:39.960
 hung their

00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:41.059
 hurled insults

00:19:41.059 --> 00:19:41.379
 at him

00:19:41.379 --> 00:19:42.259
 aren't you

00:19:42.259 --> 00:19:43.039
 the messiah

00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:44.859
 save yourself

00:19:44.859 --> 00:19:45.480
 and us

00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:47.880
 this guy

00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:48.740
 is dying

00:19:48.740 --> 00:19:51.039
 he's about

00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:51.839
 to face

00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:52.640
 God's

00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:53.140
 judgment

00:19:53.140 --> 00:19:54.420
 but all he

00:19:54.420 --> 00:19:54.900
 can do

00:19:54.900 --> 00:19:55.680
 is mock

00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.180
 Jesus

00:19:56.180 --> 00:19:57.120
 and insult

00:19:57.120 --> 00:19:57.559
 Jesus

00:19:57.559 --> 00:19:58.420
 if you're

00:19:58.420 --> 00:19:58.980
 the Christ

00:19:58.980 --> 00:19:59.420
 if you're

00:19:59.420 --> 00:20:00.120
 God's

00:20:00.120 --> 00:20:00.500
 saving

00:20:00.500 --> 00:20:00.900
 king

00:20:00.900 --> 00:20:02.259
 then save

00:20:02.259 --> 00:20:02.839
 yourself

00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:03.559
 and us

00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:05.860
 you see

00:20:05.860 --> 00:20:06.220
 for the

00:20:06.220 --> 00:20:06.720
 criminal

00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:07.539
 the only

00:20:07.539 --> 00:20:08.200
 value

00:20:08.200 --> 00:20:08.700
 Jesus

00:20:08.700 --> 00:20:09.279
 has

00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:09.920
 is that

00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:10.420
 he might

00:20:10.420 --> 00:20:10.940
 be able

00:20:10.940 --> 00:20:11.620
 to save

00:20:11.620 --> 00:20:11.779
 him

00:20:11.779 --> 00:20:12.279
 from this

00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:12.980
 torturous

00:20:12.980 --> 00:20:13.440
 death

00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:14.339
 get us

00:20:14.339 --> 00:20:14.700
 out of

00:20:14.700 --> 00:20:14.900
 here

00:20:14.900 --> 00:20:15.380
 Jesus

00:20:15.380 --> 00:20:18.200
 well of

00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:18.440
 course

00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:18.800
 Jesus

00:20:18.800 --> 00:20:19.180
 could

00:20:19.180 --> 00:20:19.560
 save

00:20:19.560 --> 00:20:19.720
 him

00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:20.940
 he could

00:20:20.940 --> 00:20:21.260
 send

00:20:21.260 --> 00:20:21.760
 an army

00:20:21.760 --> 00:20:22.440
 of angels

00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:24.520
 but

00:20:24.520 --> 00:20:24.880
 Jesus

00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:25.420
 wants him

00:20:25.420 --> 00:20:25.800
 to see

00:20:25.800 --> 00:20:26.180
 that he

00:20:26.180 --> 00:20:26.560
 has come

00:20:26.560 --> 00:20:27.100
 to save

00:20:27.100 --> 00:20:27.240
 him

00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:27.440
 from

00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:27.900
 something

00:20:27.900 --> 00:20:28.340
 far

00:20:28.340 --> 00:20:28.680
 more

00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:29.400
 serious

00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:31.040
 God's

00:20:31.040 --> 00:20:31.380
 wrath

00:20:31.380 --> 00:20:33.160
 it's

00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:33.560
 not that

00:20:33.560 --> 00:20:33.860
 Jesus

00:20:33.860 --> 00:20:34.360
 doesn't

00:20:34.360 --> 00:20:34.780
 care

00:20:34.780 --> 00:20:35.100
 about

00:20:35.100 --> 00:20:35.340
 his

00:20:35.340 --> 00:20:35.800
 physical

00:20:35.800 --> 00:20:36.240
 pain

00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:37.900
 but

00:20:37.900 --> 00:20:38.220
 Jesus

00:20:38.220 --> 00:20:38.580
 wants

00:20:38.580 --> 00:20:38.700
 him

00:20:38.700 --> 00:20:39.060
 to know

00:20:39.060 --> 00:20:39.520
 eternal

00:20:39.520 --> 00:20:40.060
 life

00:20:40.060 --> 00:20:42.280
 you see

00:20:42.280 --> 00:20:42.620
 we can

00:20:42.620 --> 00:20:43.060
 be like

00:20:43.060 --> 00:20:43.600
 the first

00:20:43.600 --> 00:20:44.060
 criminal

00:20:44.059 --> 00:20:45.839
 sometimes

00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:46.599
 we treat

00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:47.019
 Jesus

00:20:47.019 --> 00:20:47.659
 like this

00:20:47.659 --> 00:20:48.019
 that the

00:20:48.019 --> 00:20:48.980
 only value

00:20:48.980 --> 00:20:49.619
 that Jesus

00:20:49.619 --> 00:20:50.379
 has is to

00:20:50.379 --> 00:20:50.819
 help us

00:20:50.819 --> 00:20:51.200
 when we're

00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:51.700
 in trouble

00:20:51.700 --> 00:20:52.619
 to give us

00:20:52.619 --> 00:20:53.200
 something that

00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:53.859
 we want

00:20:53.859 --> 00:20:55.579
 help me get

00:20:55.579 --> 00:20:56.379
 that job

00:20:56.379 --> 00:20:56.899
 Jesus

00:20:56.899 --> 00:20:59.279
 take away

00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:00.119
 this suffering

00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:00.879
 that I'm going

00:21:00.879 --> 00:21:01.240
 through

00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:01.740
 Jesus

00:21:01.740 --> 00:21:02.980
 help me

00:21:02.980 --> 00:21:03.539
 win my

00:21:03.539 --> 00:21:04.000
 match

00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:04.519
 Jesus

00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:05.220
 help me

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.839
 find a

00:21:05.839 --> 00:21:06.240
 partner

00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:06.859
 Jesus

00:21:06.859 --> 00:21:09.419
 but that's

00:21:09.419 --> 00:21:09.799
 not how

00:21:09.799 --> 00:21:10.179
 Jesus

00:21:10.179 --> 00:21:10.779
 works

00:21:10.779 --> 00:21:12.159
 Jesus

00:21:12.159 --> 00:21:12.619
 is not

00:21:12.619 --> 00:21:13.159
 a magic

00:21:13.159 --> 00:21:13.599
 genie

00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:14.219
 who grants

00:21:14.219 --> 00:21:14.679
 everything

00:21:14.679 --> 00:21:15.199
 we wish

00:21:15.199 --> 00:21:15.500
 for

00:21:15.500 --> 00:21:16.559
 Jesus

00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:17.079
 is not

00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:17.559
 there to

00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:17.979
 meet our

00:21:17.979 --> 00:21:18.479
 physical

00:21:18.479 --> 00:21:19.240
 and material

00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:19.939
 desires

00:21:19.939 --> 00:21:20.679
 on our

00:21:20.679 --> 00:21:21.419
 demand

00:21:21.419 --> 00:21:23.559
 he comes

00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:24.119
 to give us

00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:24.479
 something

00:21:24.479 --> 00:21:25.119
 greater

00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:26.979
 forgiveness

00:21:26.979 --> 00:21:28.119
 of sins

00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:29.679
 and life

00:21:29.679 --> 00:21:30.379
 with him

00:21:30.380 --> 00:21:34.600
 how do

00:21:34.600 --> 00:21:35.360
 you treat

00:21:35.360 --> 00:21:36.160
 Jesus

00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:38.220
 look at

00:21:38.220 --> 00:21:38.840
 the response

00:21:38.840 --> 00:21:39.160
 of the

00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:39.480
 second

00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:39.980
 criminal

00:21:39.980 --> 00:21:44.100
 verse 40

00:21:44.100 --> 00:21:45.960
 the other

00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:46.400
 criminal

00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:47.220
 rebuked him

00:21:47.220 --> 00:21:48.920
 don't you

00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:49.500
 fear

00:21:49.500 --> 00:21:50.180
 God

00:21:50.180 --> 00:21:51.480
 he said

00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:52.860
 since you

00:21:52.860 --> 00:21:53.300
 are under

00:21:53.300 --> 00:21:53.820
 the same

00:21:53.820 --> 00:21:54.520
 sentence

00:21:54.520 --> 00:21:56.340
 we are

00:21:56.340 --> 00:21:56.860
 punished

00:21:56.860 --> 00:21:57.620
 justly

00:21:57.620 --> 00:21:58.760
 for we

00:21:58.760 --> 00:21:59.380
 are getting

00:21:59.380 --> 00:21:59.880
 what our

00:21:59.880 --> 00:22:00.240
 deeds

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:00.700
 deserve

00:22:00.700 --> 00:22:01.480
 but this

00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:01.839
 man

00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:03.099
 has done

00:22:03.099 --> 00:22:03.620
 nothing

00:22:03.620 --> 00:22:04.000
 wrong

00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:06.279
 the criminal

00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:07.079
 knows he

00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:07.500
 is about

00:22:07.500 --> 00:22:08.079
 to die

00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:10.160
 but what's

00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:10.839
 more troubling

00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:11.319
 is he

00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:12.099
 knows he

00:22:12.099 --> 00:22:12.900
 will face

00:22:12.900 --> 00:22:13.339
 God

00:22:13.339 --> 00:22:14.240
 that's why

00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:14.880
 he shouts

00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:15.220
 out

00:22:15.220 --> 00:22:16.299
 don't you

00:22:16.299 --> 00:22:16.779
 fear

00:22:16.779 --> 00:22:17.339
 God

00:22:17.339 --> 00:22:19.400
 dying

00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:19.779
 on the

00:22:19.779 --> 00:22:20.140
 cross

00:22:20.140 --> 00:22:20.740
 will mean

00:22:20.740 --> 00:22:21.920
 separation

00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:22.500
 from his

00:22:22.500 --> 00:22:22.960
 friends

00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:23.900
 and from

00:22:23.900 --> 00:22:24.559
 his family

00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:25.880
 but facing

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:26.519
 God

00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:26.920
 without

00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:27.500
 forgiveness

00:22:27.500 --> 00:22:28.019
 would be

00:22:28.019 --> 00:22:28.440
 something

00:22:28.440 --> 00:22:29.039
 much

00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:29.440
 much

00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:29.940
 worse

00:22:29.940 --> 00:22:30.940
 separation

00:22:30.940 --> 00:22:32.059
 from God

00:22:32.059 --> 00:22:32.620
 separation

00:22:32.620 --> 00:22:33.400
 from his

00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:33.920
 gifts

00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:34.860
 suffering

 his situation

00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:44.200
 he cries

00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:44.680
 out to

 Jesus

 Jesus

00:22:55.339 --> 00:22:56.039
 is innocent

00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:57.379
 and he

00:22:57.379 --> 00:22:57.759
 knows

00:22:57.759 --> 00:22:58.039
 he's

00:22:58.039 --> 00:22:58.399
 guilty

00:22:58.399 --> 00:22:59.720
 he's

00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:00.099
 heard

00:23:00.099 --> 00:23:00.619
 Jesus

00:23:00.619 --> 00:23:01.199
 offer

00:23:01.199 --> 00:23:01.419
 a

00:23:01.419 --> 00:23:01.899
 forgiveness

00:23:01.899 --> 00:23:02.599
 from the

00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:02.959
 cross

00:23:02.959 --> 00:23:03.939
 father

00:23:04.959 --> 00:23:05.379
 them

00:23:05.379 --> 00:23:07.139
 and he

00:23:07.139 --> 00:23:07.539
 has come

00:23:07.539 --> 00:23:08.019
 to see

00:23:08.019 --> 00:23:08.519
 that he

00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:09.119
 needs to

00:23:09.119 --> 00:23:09.819
 be forgiven

00:23:09.819 --> 00:23:10.659
 too

00:23:10.659 --> 00:23:12.559
 and he

00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:13.199
 knows that

00:23:13.199 --> 00:23:13.559
 Jesus

00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:14.099
 is the

00:23:14.099 --> 00:23:14.679
 only one

00:23:14.679 --> 00:23:15.119
 who can

00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:15.439
 deal

00:23:15.439 --> 00:23:15.980
 with his

00:23:15.980 --> 00:23:16.259
 sin

00:23:16.259 --> 00:23:18.039
 and he

00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:18.400
 comes

00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:19.079
 with simple

00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:19.640
 words

 and

00:23:26.039 --> 00:23:26.420

00:23:26.420 --> 00:23:27.200
 response

00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:28.799
 is quite

00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:29.420
 incredible

 at distance

00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:11.680
 refusing to forgive

00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:43.379
 itself

00:27:43.379 --> 00:27:45.480
 with Jesus

00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:46.639
 forever

00:27:46.639 --> 00:27:47.799
 and forever

00:27:47.799 --> 00:27:50.079
 thank you

00:27:50.079 --> 00:27:51.339
 in Jesus name

00:27:51.339 --> 00:27:52.819
 amen

00:27:52.819 --> 00:27:58.279
 we are going to sing

00:27:58.279 --> 00:27:59.980
 we are going to sing

00:27:59.980 --> 00:28:00.980
 about the cross

00:28:00.980 --> 00:28:02.439
 but we want to

00:28:02.439 --> 00:28:03.019
 celebrate

00:28:03.019 --> 00:28:04.079
 the cross

00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:06.059
 to see

00:28:06.059 --> 00:28:07.139
 to listen

00:28:07.139 --> 00:28:09.619
 and to know

00:28:09.619 --> 00:28:11.019
 that we can be

00:28:11.019 --> 00:28:11.659
 forgiven

00:28:11.659 --> 00:28:12.359
 let's

00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:13.819
 stand as we sing
