Jesus's journey to the cross reveals his complete humanity and profound love as he fulfills numerous prophecies through his final moments, culminating in his ultimate sacrifice for humanity's redemption.

• Walking through Jerusalem's streets multiple times during his final 24 hours, Jesus becomes increasingly beaten and weak with each journey
• Jesus's words "I am thirsty" fulfill scripture while revealing both his physical humanity and spiritual thirst for relationship with us
• The Roman soldiers' offer of sour wine on a hyssop branch creates a powerful connection to Passover symbolism
• When Jesus declares "It is finished," he announces the complete fulfillment of his mission to save humanity
• Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus, formerly secret disciples, honor Jesus with a royal burial, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy
• At least 20 Old Testament prophecies are fulfilled during Jesus's final 24 hours
• Though the disciples faced a night of confusion, grief, and fear, Sunday's resurrection was coming

Let's remember that Jesus thirsted for you and me, giving his life so we could have forgiveness and eternal life.
