what each would get. It was nine in the morning when they crucified
Him. The written notice of the charge against Him read: THE KING OF
THE JEWS. (Mark 15: 24-26)
In the brevity for which Mark is known, he noted the time, the
crucifixion, the lot casting and the crime. Mark even omitted His
name!!
On this Thursday morning, let us with reverence and awe speak our
Savior’s name - - JESUS - - the name to which every head shall bow,
knee shall bend and every tongue confess - - JESUS.
In this 21st century since Jesus walked this earth, we are called today
to take seriously the responsibility of being HEIRS. Ours the task to
be faithful messengers and transmitters of all that has been given to
us and to “bring the Good News of Jesus Christ” to ALL. While this
may seem to be a very daunting task, we are not without an
example.
In 2nd Corinthians the disciples asked Jesus, “Who could be saved?”
His reply was “for mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all
things are possible.”
Even now, “Come Lord Jesus.”
