On Good Friday=WE WITNESSED a horrible  crucifixion=But the EVER ENDURING LOVE=

Of the PERFECT=Son  of God=PREVAILS through the AGONY of the Cross

We WITNESSED=The TRIUMPH of Jesus=THE TRIUMPH of LOVE=On the cross=

“CARRYING his own cross=He went out=To the place of the skull=(Which in Aramaic is

Called Golgotha)=There they CRUCIFIED him=with two others=--------On each side  and=

Jesus in the middle”                                                                                                                                        John 19:17-18

 

And as Jesus was dying=JESUS STILL LOVED=Jesus still PRAYED to his Holy Father God=

He Entrusted the CARE of his Mother=To his disciple John=HE FORGAVE his executioners=and

HE PROMISED eternal life=To the GOOD THIEF=Talk about=THE TRIUMPH OF  LOVE=On

The Cross=and THE BEST=Was still yet to come=IN THE RESURRECTION=THE ULTIMATE TRIUMPH=

THE ULTIMATE VICTORY!

BRING you=The wealth of the nations=--------Their kings led in

TRIUMPHAL PROCESSION”                                                                                                              Isaiah 60:11

“But thanks be to God=Who always leads us as captives=IN CHRIST’S TRIUMPHAL PROCESSION=

“And having disarmed=The powers=and authorities=He made a public spectacle of them=

TRIUMPHING over them by the CROSS”                                                                                   Colossians 2:15

 

These are THE TRIUMPHS=We celebrate=Particularly the VICTORY of LIFE over death=Of

LOVE over hate=and the VICTORY Paul tells us about in 1 Corinthians 13:7=”LOVE always protects=

“But thanks be to God=He gives us=THE VICTORY=

Through our Lord Jesus Christ”                                                                                                 1  Corinthians 15:57
