Broadcast Outline: 

3:00 - 3:05  - Introductions
  • Why is Holy Week important?  
  • Why relieve the horrific death of Christ (when we want to remember the good things of people)?
  • What and Why are there traditions to Holy Week? 

3:05 - 3:12 - 1st Saying

  • Luke 23:43 - Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do
  • To whom was this addressed? 
  • Are the Romans at fault in crucifying Christ?  
  • Do we have anything to do with that?   

3:12 - 3:19 - 2nd Saying


3:19 - 3:26 - 3rd Saying
  • John 19:26-27, Woman, behold, thy son! Behold, thy mother
  • What was in the mind of Jesus when He was dying?   
  • Who was John and why not ask for his siblings to take care of Mary? 
  • Why did Jesus address his mother "woman"? 
3:26 - 3:32 - 4th Saying

3:32 - 3:39 - 5th Saying
  • John 19:28   I thirst,  "After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst."
  • I thought Jesus was God, but he thirst?  
  • What did the Romans give Jesus to drink?  Only John records this saying, but all four gospels relate that Jesus was offered a drink of sour wine. In Mark and Matthew, a sponge was soaked in the wine and lifted up to Jesus on a reed; John says the same, but states that the sponge was affixed to a hyssop branch. This may have been intended as symbolically significant, as hyssop branches are often mentioned in the Old Testament in the context of the use of sacrificial blood for ritual purification. This statement of Jesus is interpreted by John as fulfilment of the prophecy given in Psalm 69:21, "in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink";[36] hence the quotation from John's gospel includes the comment "that the scripture might be fulfilled". The Jerusalem Bible cross-references Psalm 22:15: "my palate is drier than a potsherd, and my tongue is stuck to my jaw".[37]

3:39 - 3:45 - 6th Saying
  • John 19:30,  It is finished.   "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost."
  • How was this said?  Ofttimes, they whisper when they are dying, but this seems to be out of place?   in Mark 15:37 and Matthew 27:50 (both of which state that Jesus "cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost").
  • Who or what is finished?   

3:45 - 3:51 - 7th Saying
  • Luke 23:46, Father, Into Thy Hands I commend my spirit.   "And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost." (Ps. 31:5)  
  • What is the significance of this statement? 
  • Is there really life after death? 

3:55 - 4:00 - Closing Comments
  • Remember the meaning of the death of Jesus
  • He did not remain dead, nor buried but on three days - HE IS RISEN!

From Dispersed To Exile

God allows 'life pauses' where moments that we are stopped dead on our tracks while he accomplishes His will.  It's not a comfortable place, but yet necessary.    There are many examples of this in the Bible, but it is one that we do not enjoy.  One key reason for this moment is God's expression of "tough love" (Prov. 3:11-12, Hebrews 12:4-11).    The Divided Kingdom of Israel and Judah sinned against God and they went to the place of no return (Isaiah 28-33; 2 Kings 17:16-20).  As a result, the Divided Kingdoms were shattered.   The Northern Kingdom Israel was dispersed by the Assyrian in 722 B.C. and the Southern Kingdom Judah was exiled by the Babylonians in 587 B.C.    In the midst of Israel's and Judah's life pause, God encourages three things:    Come back to God and renew your relationships with him.   Endure and thrive in the time of your exile. Look forward to the hope that is in Jesus.   DIDISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.       Define in your own word

From Disoriented to United to Divided

Lessons from the Old Testament Survey Class.   Today's lesson is about learning to understand that God has better plans for our lives.  That sometimes, our plans, no matter how good they are, are no better than God's plan.   Isaiah 55:8-9 says,  Let's consider three eras in our study today.  ERA # 1:  Disoriented People This was during the days of judges when God raised deliverers or judges in order to save His people.  The problem is that they kept on disobeying God and God was teaching them a lesson to trust Him.   The cycle of sin and repentance were lessonsyou will find in the book of Judges.   Another problem is that God's people were never content.  They wanted a king like the rest of the world.   This leads us to the next Era.   ERA # 2:  United Kingdom God granted Israel's request for a King despite His warning.  There were three kings that ruled one after the other and their lives are a lesson for us to follow:  King Saul was rebellious, King David was repe
