"In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace." (Ephesians 1:7)

From the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey until His death the following Friday . . . 

He wept.

He healed the blind and the lame. 

He told stories: The Parable of the Two Sons, The Parable of the Vineyard Owner, The Parable of the Wedding Banquet, The Parable of the Fig Tree, The Parable of the Ten Virgins, The Parable of the Talents.

He washed disciples' feet.

He taught.

He prayed.

On an old rugged cross, He forgave, He saved a thief, and He died.

Three days later, He arose!

This Passion Week, beloved, set your mind and praise on Jesus!

"You are worthy . . . You were slaughtered and You redeemed people for God by Your blood from every tribe and language and people and nation . . . Blessing and honor and glory and dominion to the One seated on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever!" (Revelation 5:9,13)
