Synopsis

As he gave his life for us on the cross, Jesus continued to show and teach us how to live as his disciples. Our Lord did this throughout his earthly ministry as he lived, loved, and forgave those around him and taught us to do the same. These immortal utterances of our Savior, who is also our Lord and God, continue to echo throughout eternity in the ears and lives of those who claim Christ as their Savior and who follow and obey him as Lord. These seven last words from the cross summarize the life, ministry, and teachings of Christ, and they point those who truly want to be his disciples in the direction of holiness and obedience. In this succinct analysis of the seven last words of Christ from the cross, Pastor Barry Allen highlights what Jesus teaches us here in his time of suffering on the cross. The importance of these teachings are accentuated by the fact that Jesus is both doing them, and teaching them, as he dies to atone for our sins at Calvary. Pastor Allen emphasizes that these actions and words that we see and hear from Jesus, as he dies for us on the cross, need to be remembered and obeyed by every Christian who strives to be a truly obedient disciple of Jesus Christ. In these final phrases from Golgotha, Jesus demonstrates and teaches us that following him means forgiving our tormentors, trusting in him completely, recognizing that we Christians are a family, having faith in times of trial, staying thirsty for holiness, celebrating victory, and entrusting each day and our entire lives into the hands of our heavenly Father. Although it is a brief analysis, Pastor Allen highlights what Jesus demonstrates and teaches in each of the last seven words from the cross while occasionally offering examples of how he has seen and experienced some of these truths in his own life and ministry.
