Passion of our Saviour Lord JESUS CHRIST

60 seconds with GOD!!! THE (SCIENTIFIC) DEATH OF OUR SAVIOUR; THE
ONLY WAY, THE ONLY TRUTH & THE ONLY LIFE, LORD JESUS CHRIST

         
At the  age of 33, Jesus was condemned to the death penalty.



At the  time crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst criminals condemned to be crucified. Yet it was even more dreadful for Jesus, for unlike other criminals condemned to death by crucifixion, Jesus was nailed to the cross by His hands and feet, rather than tied...

 

 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 for long because of the pain, so He was forced to alternate between arching His back and using his legs just to continue to breathe. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the suffering, the courage.
  

Jesus Christ 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 remember the Many wounds made to his body.  A hammer driving large nails through the wrists, the feet overlapped and a nail hammered through the arches, then a Roman guard piercing  His side with a spear. And...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 (two to three inch 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 35 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 passed after carrying His own cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd  spat in his face and threw stones (the cross beam was almost 30 kg of weight, to which His hands were nailed).



Jesus had to endure this experience, so that you may have free access to God.  So that your sins can be "washed" away. All of them, with no exception!  Don't ignore this.

OUR LORD JESUS  CHRIST DIED FOR YOU !!!

For you, who now read this and for the entire world
 

 He died for you!  It is easy and fun to share/spread jokes or silly photos/mails/messages, but when it comes to God, sometimes we feel ashamed to forward a message about Him on to others. We are worried of what they “may think.”  Accept  the reality, the truth, that 

JESUS IS THE ONLY SALVATION FOR THE WORLD.  



God has special plans for YOU! Share this with all your friends and family... about what He went through to save you. Really think about it! May God bless you all !                                                



If you are not ashamed to do this, please, follow Jesus' instructions.  He said (Matthew 10:32 & 33): "Everyone therefore  who acknowledges me before others, I also will acknowledge  before My Father in heaven; but whosoever denies Me before  others,  I also will deny before My Father in  heaven".  



If you  believe, spread this message to all by either copy paste/mail or what ever way you fell comfort... But send it only if you believe in Christ Jesus as your Lord and Savior.                             



Yes, I love God. He is my source of life and my Savior. He keeps me alive and safe, both day and night. Without Him, I am nothing, but with Him "I can do all things through Him  who strengthens me". Philippians 4:13.


MAY GOD BLESS ALL & THE MERCY OF OUR SAVIOUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE SHOWERED UPON ALL PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILY...

Good Friday...The Day GOD suffered maximum to save the world


GOD so loved the world that he gave his one and only one SON to the world so that the world will be saved. Our lord Jesus Christ suffered to the extreme for the cleanness of our sins. May the sacred heart of our Lord JESUS CHRIST be loved, adored, honoured, glorified and worshiped throughout the world now and forever ... AMEN...  

GOD Bless all..




Redemption through Lord JESUS CHRIST's Body and Blood...

HOLY THURSDAY is the most complex and profound of all religious observances, saving only the Easter Vigil. It celebrates both the institution by Christ himself of the Eucharist and of the institution of the sacerdotal priesthood (as distinct from the 'priesthood of all believers') for in this, His last supper with the disciples, a celebration of Passover, He is the self-offered Passover Victim, and every ordained priest to this day presents this same sacrifice, by Christ's authority and command, in exactly the same way. The Last Supper was also Christ's farewell to His assembled disciples, some of whom would betray, desert or deny Him before the sun rose again.

On Holy Thursday there is a special Mass in Cathedral Churches, attended by as many priests of the diocese as can attend, because it is a solemn observance of Christ's institution of the priesthood. At this 'Chrism Mass' the bishop blesses the Oil of Chrism used for Baptism and Confirmation. The bishop may wash the feet of twelve of the priests, to symbolize Christ's washing the feet of his Apostles, the first priests.

The Holy Thursday liturgy, celebrated in the evening because Passover began at sundown, also shows both the worth God ascribes to the humility of service, and the need for cleansing with water (a symbol of baptism) in the Mandatum, or washing in Jesus' washing the feet of His disciples, and in the priest's stripping and washing of the altar. Cleansing, in fact, gave this day of Holy Week the name Maundy Thursday.

The action of the Church on this night also witnesses to the Church's esteem for Christ's Body present in the consecrated Host in the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, carried in solemn procession to the flower-bedecked Altar of Repose, where it will remain 'entombed' until the communion service on Good Friday. No Mass will be celebrated again in the Church until the Easter Vigil proclaims the Resurrection.

And finally, there is the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament by the people during the night, just as the disciples stayed with the Lord during His agony on the Mount of Olives before the betrayal by Judas.
