The Seven Last Sayings of Jesus
Even while bleeding, even while struggling to breathe, even while carrying the sin of the world, Jesus was still teaching, still loving, still saving, still revealing the heart of God.
The seven sayings of Jesus from the cross show us who He is and what He came to do.
They show us:
- how to forgive,
- how to trust,
- how to love,
- how to endure,
- and how to surrender.
