The Last Words on the Cross

Vicky Hunt — Mon, 25 Mar 2013 06:05:00 +0000

A special episode cohosted with my husband Larry, in which we look at the last recorded words that Jesus actually spoke from the cross. I give background information, and Larry interprets and explains each phrase and it's effect.

There could be no resurrection without the submission of the cross that took place on Good Friday. Larry and I consider the "7 Last Sayings" of Jesus on the Cross, in light of three questions:

What do you think that Jesus was feeling at the moment He uttered those words?

What is the significance of these words for us today?

What effect do you see these words having on salvation, or the cross-work of Jesus?

#1: Luke 23:34: Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.

πατερ αφες αυτοις ου γαρ οιδασιν τι ποιουσιν.
poy-oos'-in

ποιουσιν - know = to see (literally or figuratively); implied to know,

Scripture Examples: Matthew 5:44, Acts 7:60

#2: Luke 23:43: Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.

αμην λεγω σοι σημερον μετ εμου εση εν τω παραδεισω.
say'-mer-on par-ad'-ay-sow

παραδεισω - a park, an Eden, place of future happiness, paradise.

Scripture Examples: Hebrews 2:11

#3: John 19:26-27: Woman, behold your son. Behold your mother.

γυναι ιδου ο υιος σου. ιδου η μητηρ σου.

*Note: From 6th Hour till the 9th hour there was darkness… the Light of the World was fading.

#4: Matthew 27:46: My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?
ηλι ηλι λαμα σαβαχθανι Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?
σαβαχθανι -thou hast left me; sabachthani , a cry of distress
Scripture Examples: Psalm 22:1-3 and Isaiah 53:4

#5: John 19:28: I am thirsty.
διψω dip-sah'-o
Scripture Examples: Psalm 69:21

#6: Luke 23:46: Father, into your hands I commit my spirit. (cf. Psalm 31:5)

πατερ εις χειρας σου παραθησομαι το πνευμα
par-at-ith'-ay-mee

=to place alongside, i.e. present (food, truth); by implication, to deposit (as a trust or for protection):—allege, commend, commit (the keeping of), put forth, set before.
Scripture Examples: 2^nd Timothy 1:12

#7: John 19:30: It is... finished.

Τετελεσται or the root word is τελεω
Scripture Examples: 2nd Timothy 4:7

Light Changer

Vicky Hunt — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 08:23:00 +0000

Darkness descends early enough that you have ample time to long for the return of the sun before daylight. But, the time is about to change. Come sit in today's extra hour of light with me, & meet a few of Jesus' friends.

Scriptures:

John 1:4-5 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness overcame it not.

Scripture Collage character traits of God: "God is good, God is love, God is a consuming fire, God is a merciful God, God is one Lord, God is a jealous God, God is God of Gods, God is among you, God is He that hath fought for you, God is upon thee, God is my strength and power, God is gracious and merciful, God is great, God is greater than man, God is mighty, God is with terrible majesty, God is our refuge and strength, God is the King of all the Earth, God is our God, God is judge himself, God is mine helper, God is for me, God is my defense, God is my salvation and my glory, God is a sun and shield, God is holy, God is in the heavens, God is pure, God is with us, God is righteous, God is able, God is at hand, God is true, God is a Spirit, God is no respecter of persons, God is my witness, God is revealed, God is faithful, God is not bound, God is well pleased, God is light, God is greater than our heart, and God is forever and ever."

Secondary Scriptures:

John 12:1-3 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him. Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

Luke 7:37-38 And, behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat to eat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment, And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

John 11:11-12 These things said he: and after that he said unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleeps, he shall do well.

John 11:14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

John 11:16 Then said Thomas, who is called Didymus, unto his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

John 20:10-11 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home But Mary stood outside at the sepulcher weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulcher,

John20:14 And when she had thus spoke, she turned back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

John 20:16 Jesus said unto her, Mary. She turned, and said unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Teacher.

1 John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Look! As Sure as God Lives, So Will You!

Vicky Hunt — Sun, 24 Feb 2013 03:00:00 +0000

In bleak economic times, who do we look to for life? The answer is found in God’s Word, and in following the living God Himself, Jesus Christ. 1 Kings 17

The Burden of a Song

Vicky Hunt — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 05:32:00 +0000

Worship is a separate kind of beauty. From the life and songs of David, we can see how a song can become a burden for a musician in the church. God’s perception of beauty begins in the soul. What should our life song be?

Scriptures:
Psalms 18-19
Psalm 59
Job 36:3 I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

Quotes:
"Thou sun, of this great world both eye and soul, Acknowledge Him thy greater; sound His praise both when thou climb'st, and when high noon hast gained, and when thou fall'st." -Charles Spurgeon
"Therein our fingers feel, our nostrils smell, our palates taste his virtues that excel, He shows Him to our eyes, talks to our ears, in the ordered motion of the spangled spheres." -Du Bartas

Psalms to Lighten a Heavy Spirit

Vicky Hunt — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 08:21:00 +0000

Sometimes we feel external forces, things beyond our control, tugging at our spirit and weighing us down. When these things happen, we find Jesus is our Rock, and running to Him can lift us up! Follow me UP through a path of Psalms to the Rock...

Psalm 61:1-4; 63:1-2; 18:10-16; 55:22; and 20:6-8

A Dream, A Vision, A Future Podcast

Vicky Hunt — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 04:12:20 +0000

Thoughts on Dr. King, Jr., His Dream, Civil Rights, Abortion, and the Future of our nation.

Scriptures:
     Isaiah 39:8 Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
     Exodus 2:1-2 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi. And the woman conceived, and bore a son: and when she saw him that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
     Psalms 127:3-4 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
