With a theme of remembering Jesus's words and Christ's victory over sin and death, we hear the importance of the First Easter Sunday where mourning is turned into rejoicing.

There are several themes running through Luke 23, but of note this evening is the fact that Jesus, declared innocent multiple times, was crucified alongside criminals, and ultimately died a criminal's death at Calvary in Jerusalem.

Jesus' cry on the cross recorded in Matthew 27:46 is the cry of Psalm 22:1 "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"In this sermon Rev Steven Swets discusses the irony of the Jesus being on the cross, the confidence of Jesus in His doing the will of the Father and the comfort this brings to believers.

Believers find assurance, relief, and joy in God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ, as Christ's atoning death nullifies the need for righteousness through the law and brings no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus.

In the Lord's Prayer we pray 'Thy Kingdom come." In Luke 17:20-37 we come to understand the present reality of the Kingdom and the future expectation of the Kingdom. Lord's Day 48 of the Heidelberg Catechism is referenced.
