What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
So when they had gathered, pilot said to them, Whom do you want me to release for you, Barabas or Jesus, who is called Christ for? He knew that it was out of envy, that they had delivered him up. Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of him today in a dream.
Now the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabas and destroy Jesus. The governor again said to them, Which of the two do you want me to release for you? And they said, Barabas pilot said to them, Then what shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ?
They all said, Let him be crucified. And he said, Why? What evil has he done? But they shouted all the more, let him be crucified.
So when pilots saw that he was gaining nothing but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd saying, I am innocent of this man's blood. See to it yourselves. And all the people answered his blood. Be on us and on and on our children. Then he released for them Barabas and having scourged, scourged, Jesus delivered him to be crucified. Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor's headquarters and they gathered the whole battalion before him and they stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him and twisted together a crown of thorns.
They put it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him, they mocked him, saying, Hail king of the Jews.
And they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head. And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe and put his own clothes on him and led him away to crucify him.
As they went out, they found a man of Cairene, Simon, by name, they compelled this man to carry his cross. And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means place of a skull, they offered him wine to drink, mixed with gall. But when he tasted it, he would not drink it. And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots. Then they sat down and kept watch over him there and over his head.
They put the charge against him, which read, This is Jesus, the king of the Jews. Then two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right and one on the left. And those who passed by derided him wagging their heads and saying you who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself if you are the son of God, come down from the cross. So also, the chief priests with the scribes and elders mocked him, saying he saved others, you cannot save himself.
He's the king of Israel. Let him come down now from the cross and we will believe in him. He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now if he desires him for he said, I am the son of God. And the robbers who were crucified with them also reviled him in the same way. Now, from the sixth hour, there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour and about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice saying, Eli, Eli, Lema, Sabattini, that is my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
And some of the bystanders hearing it said, this man is calling Elijah and one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink. But the others said, wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him. And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit. And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth shook and the rocks were split.
The tombs also were opened and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised and coming out of the tombs.
After his resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many when the Sun Cherian and those who were with him keeping watch over Jesus saw the earthquake and what took place. They were filled with awe and said, truly, this was the son of God:

Good Friday is Good
Date:4/2/21
Series: Matthew
Passage: Matthew 27:1-61
Speaker: BJ Chursinoff
A lot of bad things happened on Good Friday. But we don’t call it "Bad Friday" - we call it "Good Friday". In this message, we'll examine both the bad and the good that took place on the very first Good Friday and we will see why we ended up calling this Friday “good” instead of “bad.
Today is the day that Christians all over the world celebrate the anniversary of one very particular Friday that took place a little over two thousand years ago, today is the day we remember and reflect on one of the best days in the history of the entire world.
Today is the day that we celebrate Good Friday. But I have a question for you. Have you ever really considered why we call this Friday good, or do you just assume it's good?
Because everybody has been calling it good for the past 20 years?
The reason I'm asking this question is because I don't think it's as obvious as you might expect if you were to simply take a look at what happened on Good Friday.
I don't think good would be the automatic conclusion that we would come to in the gospel of Matthew in Matthew Chapter twenty seven Verse is one to sixty one. We have a detailed description of some of the events that took place on the original Good Friday. And a lot of what we see there doesn't appear to be all that good. Let me try to show you what I mean by simply reading for you the account of Good Friday that we have in Matthew's Gospel because it's such a long passage.
I'm also going to show the words on the screen as I read to help you keep your attention all the way through. And when I'm done reading, we're going to take a look together at what makes Good Friday so good, even though so much bad stuff happened on that day, too. So let me read our text. Here's what took place on Good Friday. When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death, and they bound him and let him away and delivered him over to the governor.
Then when Judas, his betrayal, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the 30 pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, saying, I've sinned by betraying innocent blood, they said, what does that to us see to it yourself and throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple. He departed and he went and hanged himself. But the chief priests taking the pieces of silver said it is not lawful to put them into the Treasury since it is blood money.
So they took counsel and brought with them the potter's field as a burial place for strangers.
Therefore, that field has been called the field of blood to this day then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the Prophet Jeremiah sane. And they took the 30 pieces of silver, the price of him on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, and they gave them for the potter's field as the Lord directed me. Now, Jesus stood before the governor and the governor asked them, are you the king of the Jews? Jesus said, you've said so.
But when he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer. Then pilot said to him, Do you not hear how many things they testify against you? But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so that the governor was greatly amazed. Now, at the feast, the governor was accustomed to release for the crowd any one prisoner whom they wanted, and they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabas.

What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
Jesus, I believe in the blood, Jesus, I believe in the resurrection. Jesus. I turn for my whole life, my life of sin. And I trust you now for eternal life. Forgive me and bless me. Do that in the life of a person. Right now we pray, Lord, in all these things, praying for the saints and praying for unbelievers. We pray, Lord, that you're glorified. And we pray that our deepest joy is found in you.
In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Amen.
In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Amen.
What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
Well, what wine is he talking about here? Well, he's referring to the fourth cup of wine that he didn't end up drinking with his disciples that night. He's saving the experience of drinking the last cup for a future time with all of his disciples.
And when is Jesus going to drink? This fourth cup will in verses twenty nine. It says when his kingdom comes. When the kingdom comes. When the kingdom has fully come, when Jesus comes back, then Jesus will drink the wine that he mentions in verse twenty nine. And so when Christians take communion, we're doing two things at the same time.
Number one, we're looking back at the cross.
But number two, we're also looking ahead to the day when we will celebrate the marriage supper of the lamb in the Kingdom of God when it has fully come. I'm going to begin to wrap up right here. I think there are times that we can read Jesus words so much that we become numb to the shocking nature of what Jesus is actually saying.
If we do become numb, we'll miss out on some of the awesomeness of what our God has to say to us.
The four verse is that we looked at tonight are a great example of this. Jesus makes Passover all about him. It's both shocking and awesome. But here's the kicker, though, is just it's not just Passover that Jesus does this with. Jesus has made everything about him. Let me read a passage for you from Colossians. Chapter one is me, Verse is, 15 to 20 as we wrap up our time here. The apostle Paul says this He Christ is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation four by him, all things were created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities.
All things were created through him and for him, all things were created for him. And he Christ is before all things, and in him all things whole together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the first born from the dead, that in everything he might be pre-eminent for in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of the cross.
Everything in the universe is about Jesus, not just Passover, that is also shocking. And awesome. Let's pray. Lord, do whatever you have to do in our hearts right now in the hearts of people watching this message right now, do whatever you have to do to open the eyes of our hearts, remove any spiritual blindness, any darkness that would keep us from perceiving the reality that you alone are the center of everything that exists. You are the I am Jesus, you are creator God, you are the sole purpose for the universe existing.
Help us to see that not in a grand, just a grand general way.
Help us to see how you're the center of our lives, every single one of us, without exception, help us to see that and how glorious that is that you actually invite your people into a relationship where you could be placed at the center and all of our the sum total of our lives revolve around you.
They serve you. It points to you. Our hope is in. You are longing is for you. Our strength is in you. Everything is from you. Everything is about you, for you or through you. You gave us a taste of that at that Passover meal with your disciples, Lord, but I pray that you expand that into our hearts now as we head into this new year of twenty, twenty one and beyond. Jesus, you're the center.
Get glory for yourself in the lives of your people individually and get glory for yourself in the life of your church, locally and abroad. I pray, Lord, that this message has built up the faith of your saints, and I pray, Lord, that if anyone's watching this message tonight, who is not a Christian, who doesn't know you, Lord, that by the power of your Holy Spirit, you would bring them into a relationship with themselves, were they to say, I want God's wrath to pass over me?
And when is Jesus going to drink? This fourth cup will in verses twenty nine. It says when his kingdom comes. When the kingdom comes. When the kingdom has fully come, when Jesus comes back, then Jesus will drink the wine that he mentions in verse twenty nine. And so when Christians take communion, we're doing two things at the same time.

What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
It's a great meme. If you're one on one Mammalogy, you'll know the Captain Phillips meme. But Jesus, Jesus in the scene in our text is doing something very similar. He's holding the unleavened bread with all his disciples and he's looking at them and he says, look at me, I'm the unleavened bread now. I'm the unleavened bread. Now I'm the bread of the Passover. Now. It's shocking and is awesome, but Jesus doesn't stop there.
Look at Verse is, twenty seven and twenty eight again. And he took a cup and when he'd given thanks he said you gave it to them. Same drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the Covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. We've already seen that there were four times during the Passover meal where one of four cups was of wine was drunk and each cup of wine corresponded to one of the four promises God made those people in the exodus.
The cup that Jesus has given to his disciples in Arsène is the third cup which corresponded to the third promise God promised back in Exodus Chapter six.
I will redeem you with an outstretched arm. I will redeem you means I will purchase you for myself. And that is what God did during the Passover. In the Exodus, God purchased His people out of Egypt for himself.
And now Jesus is saying this wine of redemption is about me. It's about me. This wine is a picture of my blood which was poured out on the cross the very next day. Jesus, blood was the price that had to be paid if God were to purchase a people for himself in the exodus, the blood of the lamb, which was which stained the doorpost of each house, saved people from physical death.
On Good Friday, the blood of the Lamb of God, which stained the cross, saves his people from spiritual death.
In the exodus, people were saved from a physical death, but they would still end up dying one day in the future. But in the gospel, people are saved from an eternal spiritual death. So we are all going to physically die one day unless we're raptured or we're alive when Jesus comes back. But the blood of Jesus applied to our lives by faith ensures that when we stand before God in the final judgment, spiritual death will pass over us.
To why? Because Jesus died for us. You shed his blood for us. And that was enough to pay for our sins because Jesus paid for our sins. We don't have to pay for our sins anymore.
The bread and the wine of Passover used to point God's people to a past event, and it did for hundreds of years. Don't miss that.
It was a centuries old tradition given to them by God himself. But now Jesus is saying that the bread and the wine are pointing to a new event.
The Gospel, the bread and the wine now point to the slain body of the Lamb of God given for the sins of the world hanging on the cross where his blood was poured out in order that whoever is covered by the blood is saved forever.
Shocking, awesome words and great news. If you are new to the Bible and new to the Christian faith, this is what Christians do when we observe communion together, we are doing what Jesus told his disciples to do during the Last Supper. When we eat the bread of communion and drink the cup of communion, we are doing what Jesus disciples did during the Last Supper. We don't remember Egypt. We remember the cross Jesus body hung on it and Jesus blood spilled out on it so that we can remember the wrath of God has passed over us.
Wow. Wow. Final, the final words in our text verse, twenty nine, Jesus goes on, I tell you, I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you and my father's kingdom. Remember, it was the third cup of wine that Jesus held up when he spoke. The words found in verses twenty seven and twenty eight. But then he goes on to say here in verse twenty nine that he won't drink the Passover wine until a future date.

Gee thanks for that uplifting comment. Think you've done the same many times on blogs .
We have the same issues over here or haven't you noticed but then again I'm not colour prejudiced .
World War 3 would surely be down to your other pal Putin and nothing is written in stone so yes it could happen especially as Trump has done yet another U turn with regards getting rid of N.A.T.O.
P.S. I'm far from bored.

Cheering for mr. Trump unfairly being ill treated here
when so many of the citizens of the world needs him
to help get the world onto a better path.
This stuff is much larger than who gets a high ranking job,
it's about what direction the world is supposed to go next.
Nothing less.

It's all terribly ,terribly boring quite frankly. I don't think Biden is good for America either but then neither is Trump.
His treatment of the Scots over his golf course was appalling .Are you actually aware of how he treated home owners.?Here's just one example of his lack of care of others and how he treated those who refused to comply with his demands.
David and Moira Milne had already been threatened with legal action by Mr. Trump’s lawyers, who claimed that a corner of their garage belonged to him, when they came home from work one day to find his staff building a fence around their garden. Two rows of grown trees went up next, blocking the view. Their water and electricity lines were temporarily cut. And then a bill for about $3,500 arrived in the mail, which, Mr. Milne said, went straight into the trash.
The Scottish people flushed him down the drain years ago.
Like the New Yorker's did decades ago.

For over 1000 years it would appear that Mary Magdalene had been confused with another Mary. Mary of Bethany. A pope around that time implied that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute, but he really meant Mary of Bethany.
Mary Magdalene apparently came from a wealthy background, and helped finance Jesus's exploits. She was linked to either the fishing industry or weaving materials.

Even scarier that the mods have asked the political nutters to cut out the politics but by the time they did the loons were pretty much running the nuthouse and ignored them, and most of the sane - or bonkers-but-fun-with-it - had gone. But there are a few non-politicals left
Meeting in Spain - yup real meetings. Spain has a LOT of expats because the climate is reliably good, the cost of living better than most other European countries, standard of living much higher. It's also a seriously popular tourist destination, edging the US into 3rd spot, so anyone travelling from inside AND outside Europe gets a holiday and, if it works out, a new friend to show them round? No brainer.
Okay half my tally was bloggers meeting up where 3 lived here within an hour or two drive of Salobreña and 2 were on holiday, and a second trip featured an American blogger and his Malaysian wife, who met on CS, and chose southern Spain for a holiday for the same reason. There were 3 active popular and funny bloggers back then in Spain who have all given up in the face of the humourless dreary blogs which everyone now seems to prefer. Spain is still sunny and still the second most popular holiday destination in the world.
As for the other meets, expats will drive further to meet someone halfway than perhaps the average Joe would. Catch me, when I still lived in Scotland, driving more than half an hour for coffee??? but here it's a chance to see more of my new country, speak English, and if it works out (that giant if) weekends spent back and forth. Got a good buddy here who is in a longterm relationship, 2 years so far, with a woman who lives nearly an hour's drive away, that works out REALLY well for mature couples delighted to have together time but also used to lots of private time and keeping up with their local friends. In fact that's the dream, for many of us. Well, me. I like my down time. They'll end up fulltime together in the long run but for now are both very happy with the deal.

@ Grand
Why do you assume that I am uneducated and that I read M.S.M. The internet is full of sites all with varying information .
I am fully aware of what goes on behind closed doors and to be honest in front of them too.
You are obsessed with Trump as you are with Putin whereas I weigh up the pro's and con's .Do you honestly believe that the American courts have totally concocted ALL the charges against him? Had that been the case there would surely have been no charges to answer for.
Any idiot that brings the Bible into his promotional rants is a sandwich short of a picnic.Does he think he is the new Messiah? If so he too could end up being crucified .
As for You Tube it's a mixed bag and sometimes full of unreliable information.
No disrespect Grand but just because I disagree with you and others on here does not make me ill informed just not swayed by others opinions.
America needs to shape up ,get rid of the clingons and rejuvenate some young blood into their politics as they are going down hill fast in many ways.

It's unique that nobody here will ever make such an impact on the lives of others here in the same manner.
As for meeting a dozen or so people from here was that in person within Spain? Or did they all spend the time and money to meet from all corners of the earth?
I hardly doubt that. Most would be lucky to chat one on one via Skype or some other platform.
I can't picture people coming from America or Asia to incorporate cost of flight and hotel to visit the friends they made here.
If everyone especially the boys here could afford to jet set and globe trot to meet women they would be able to attract a higher quality and caliber of people. Dr's lawyers Indian chiefs etc. not your average material handler in a factory or truck driver or medical assistant or Susie homewrecker.

Owning a piece of Trump... stock
Business Insider did a story claiming Trump got a $4 billion windfall after his merger...
"...now trading under the "DJT" ticker symbol, but experts doubt its longevity."
I always enjoy the reader comments:
"So are you telling me that someone who can bankrupt casinos where the house has a big edge is going to make a social network that no one reads than Trump people, make money for investors?"
"How does Truth Media with a financial record of losing $49 million so far merge with a company that has a financial record of consistent years of severe loses and presently has $1.5 million in assets and $25.5 million in debts manage to become a entity valued at $6+ billion ? The only thing I see coming from this merger is another Dumpster grift that ends in catastrophic bankruptcy for its investors."
"It’s all a fraud just like everything he’s ever been involved in. Boosting that stock now and will dump all his shares the minute he sees an out. Investors will lose their money and he walks away laughing at all the gullible masses."
"The guy was just found liable for "massive" and sustained fraud in New York. I don't think I would invest in any company of his. The only person going to make off of this is Trump. The investors will lose money."

Not long ago, the idea that a former president—or a major-party presidential nominee—would face serious legal jeopardy was nearly unthinkable. Today, merely keeping track of the many cases against Donald Trump requires a law degree, a great deal of attention, or both.

Monday’s dramatic bond reduction for former President Donald Trump did nothing to dissipate the dark cloud that his civil-fraud case has cast over New York business deals.
Although investors won’t publicly admit it, the case is having a chilling effect, said Charles Trzcinka, professor of finance at Indiana University-Bloomington.
“If you talk to people in this market, they are very, very upset … and these are people who are neutral or even opposed to Trump,” Mr. Trzcinka told The Epoch Times. “They’re just angry about it.”
In his role at the university, Mr. Trzcinka said he places students in the corporate lending market in New York, making him aware of trends in that sphere.
An appeals court’s decision to slash the bond by about 60 percent, reducing it to $175 million, still left a massive penalty intact while President Trump continues a legal challenge of Justice Arthur Engoron’s ruling.
Judge Engoron ruled that President Trump and his associates fraudulently overvalued their assets. But Mr. Trzcinka said anyone who thinks President Trump’s activities in that case were irregular or fraudulent may lack an understanding of typical New York business transactions.
A source familiar with the case explained to The Epoch Times that, normally, business-related cases are handled in the New York courts’ commercial division.
There, cases are decided by judges who have specific, “sophisticated” knowledge of commercial law and business practices.
But the case didn’t go that route because New York Attorney General Letitia James found a novel way to use New York’s anti-fraud law.
Researchers examined other alleged fraud cases in New York over a 70-year period and found the Trump case stands alone. The Trump Organization was the only company that confronted the possibility of being forced out of business despite no victim suffering major financial harm.
Because of Ms. James’ unusual application of the law, the case was channeled to a court that would rarely, if ever, handle business-related matters.
Thus, the source said, “This case proceeded in just a highly irregular fashion from the start.”
A Degree of Horror’
Legal scholar Jonathan Turley agreed the case is atypical and its repercussions far-reaching.
“This has really done great damage to the New York legal system … Businesses are looking at this with a degree of horror—that a judge could come up with a figure so large you have to sell parts of your business just to get an appeal,” Mr. Turley told Fox News.
However, people who dislike President Trump are cheering on Ms. James. She ran for election on a promise to prosecute the former president if she won the post of attorney general.
Before the court-ordered bond reduction, the original $464 million bond amount included a $363 million judgment that Judge Engoron levied against President Trump and his associates, plus 9 percent interest.
Speaking to reporters after the March 25 appellate court’s decision, President Trump called Judge Engoron’s original decision a “disservice” to New York.
“Businesses are fleeing,” he said.
The case promises to continue discouraging investors from doing business in the Empire State, Mr. Trzcinka and two other knowledgeable sources told The Epoch Times.
That’s not only because of the crippling dollar amounts involved, the sources said, but also because President Trump and his associates were behaving within the bounds of normal business practice and victimized no one.
“All the parties under this civil case were satisfied,” Mr. Trzcinka said. Yet Ms. James “brought a case without a victim” and secured a judgment approaching $500 million.
“I have never heard of a victimless civil case that even won $500,” he said.
