Our bus was first on the scene to a horrific accident late last in New England! Our band members were pulling trapped people out of their cars while calling 911. Thankfully everyone survived! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 #LetUsWorship



WHY IS #GOODFRIDAY GOOD? The physical, emotional, and psychological torture of Jesus is hard to read. 🩸Not because of HOW he died but WHY he died. For YOU reading this RIGHT NOW. “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes, we are healed.” READ ALL ✍️ (from many sources) According to Scripture, Christ was struck, buffeted and scourged. Jesus was smote” here as “to flay,” meaning Christ’s skin was RIPPED from his body during the beating. 🩸HE WAS FLOGGED WITH FURY Sometimes, a victim’s back was “so shredded that part of the SPINE was [...] exposed by the deep, deep cuts.” Not only was the flaying agonizingly painful, but it would have added to Christ’s sufferings as the bloodied wounds dried onto his clothing and were ripped open when the clothing was removed. And the flaying would have made the subsequent beatings even worse. “If Jesus was ‘flayed’ only hours before, the dried clots on his back were rapidly removed from his back and fresh blood would quickly flow,” McGovern wrote. “The skin of Jesus’ back, sides, buttocks, thighs, and legs were then damaged so that wheals, purpura, abrasions, and lacerations formed. 🩸The muscles then tore and bled profusely. His back, posterior thighs, and posterior legs became bleeding and clotting masses of formless and quivering flesh. Then he was turned around, and the same thing was done to his chest, abdomen, thighs, and legs.” 🩸Jesus would have been crucified naked in order to maximise his humiliation. Their was no loin cloth Think about it: what better way to ultimately humiliate and demoralize someone than to hang them up on a cross without a scrap of clothing? Here you are, suffering great pain and dying slowly in front of a crowd (and possibly relatives), stripped naked after being scourged, and definitely not in a usual context for nudity. You can’t even brush the stinging insects and biting flies away from your face, much less your poor genitalia. Nudity on the cross was part of the entire execution process. Jesus was attached to the cross with spikes five to seven inches long that were driven one each through his wrists and one through both of his feet. There are no major arteries at the sites of the nailings, but the spikes may have hit any of a number of crucial major nerves. What would have resulted would be “excruciating fiery bolts of pain in both arms.” Similar pain would have occurred because of wounds to the feet. 🩸Suffering would have been intense since severe muscle cramps, agonizing shooting pain from the nerve injuries and the struggle to maintain breathing by lifting the weight of his body with his arms could have been combined with such discomforts as insects burrowing into his ears, eyes and nose and birds of prey attacking the wounds. Jesus experienced hours of limitless pain, cycles of twisting, joint-rending cramps, intermittent partial asphyxiation, searing pain where tissue is torn from His lacerated back as He moves up and down against the rough timber. Then another agony begins -- a terrible crushing pain deep in the chest as the pericardium slowly fills with serum and begins to compress the heart. One remembers again the 22nd Psalm, the 14th verse: “I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint; my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.” FOR THE JOY set before Him, he endured the cross. Take a minute and thank Jesus for the cross. FINALLY, consider this. #GoodFriday2023 is good because after the crucifixion comes resurrection
