Words of Promise

Last Sunday, we began a sermon series in which we’ll look at Jesus’ last words from the cross. Some of the sayings are words of suffering and agony. Others speak of salvation and victory over death. Tomorrow, we'll hear Jesus speak words of promise to one of the criminals crucified with Him. The man was a thief. The Roman government sentenced him to death for all the evil he had done. Yet, in a simple but profound act of faith, he asked the Lord, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” [Luke 23:42] Jesus promised to do more than remember this man. Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.” [Luke 23:43] Isn’t it just like Jesus to give him exceedingly abundantly above all he—or we—could ever ask or imagine?

Scripture References: Luke 23:32-43

From Series: "Jesus' Last Words"

If you could choose your final words, what would they be? Most certainly, they would express love and gratitude for family and friends. You’d carefully select them to bring blessing to all who heard. Jesus spoke His final words from the cross. In the six hours of His death, He uttered seven sayings that have forever changed our lives and the world. He spoke of forgiveness, salvation, affection, anguish, suffering, victory, and contentment. It is in these dying words that Jesus promises us new life. In this series, we’ll explore Jesus’ final words as seen and heard through the eyes and ears of those who stood near the cross.
