Episode 57: Characters of Easter: Forgiveness and redemption in real Life

Listen Later

As we look at the story of the resurrection, we see Jesus is dying to take away the sins of the world. Matthew 26-28, Mark 14-16, Luke 22-24, and John 18-21.

  • Jesus died willingly
  • He told Peter to put his sword away
  • He said he could call 10,000 angels to defend him

    • Response of the Disciples

    • Peter denied Christ 3 times and then went away in deep sorrow after he denied Christ. - If we have moments of weakness and denial of Christ there is redemption. God has prayed for you.
    • John went to the crucifixion and was standing at the foot of the cross with Mary and Mary Magdalene. - Stay with Jesus to the end there is always work to do. Allow your love to keep you close to Jesus no matter what.
    • Judas is the one that betrayed Jesus. He betrayed him with a kiss. Jesus went to give the money back. He later went out and killed himself.  Matthew 27:3-5 - If you are discouraged at how things are happening. If you expected things to happen a different way trust that God has a plan and remain committed. You have never gone too far to turn around. Jesus can remove the guilt of your actions. Jesus' death is what caused us all to be saved, and our sins are taken away.
    • Thomas: Wanted asked questions and wanted to see and touch Jesus. God allowed him to see and touch him, then he taught us that it is possible to believe without touching. God can give you the faith to believe even if you don't see him.
