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 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!
God Has plans for you, show all your friends what
He experienced To save you.
Now think about this! May God bless your Life!
