Well it is Friday and what a glorious time.
Mat 27:22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
Mat 27:23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
Mat 27:24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
Mat 27:25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
Mat 27:26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
Mat 27:27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
Mat 27:28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
Mat 27:29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
Mat 27:30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
Mat 27:31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
Mat 27:32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
Mat 27:33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
Mat 27:34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
Mat 27:35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
Mat 27:36 And sitting down they watched him there;
Mat 27:37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Mat 27:38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
Mat 27:39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
Mat 27:40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
Mat 27:41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
Mat 27:42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
Mat 27:43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
Mat 27:44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
Mat 27:45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
Mat 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Mat 27:47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
Mat 27:48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
Mat 27:49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
Mat 27:50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
Mat 27:51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
Mat 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
Mat 27:53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Mat 27:54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
When you read the above versus doesn't it hurt to know what they did to Jesus. I heard a preacher talk about having a dream and he said that he was dreaming about this day and how real it was to him. THat he could see faces in the crowd and smells, and feel the wind blowing. He was screaming and trying his best to calm the crowd and tell them what an awful mistake they was making. But with every shout the crowd seemed to want it more. Then a Roman soilder was passing by the preacher and he said he just wanted to get a good look at the soilder and look into his eyes and ask him how he could be so cruel to the Lord of Lords. The preacher said that he was angry and grabbed the soilder on his shoulder to spin him around to look at him and when the soilder spun around and looked at the Preacher that he was shocked. The preacher seen himself starring back at him. You see we say how could they have done that to Jesus, but you and me are just as responsible for Jesus's death as they are. His blood wasn't just shed on that day for those people but for everyone throughout history. I have heard people say that one drop of Jesus blood would have been enough to save the world. Don't believe that, he didn't loose one drop but he gave all he had. Jesus became the perfect sacrifice for our salvation. Now ask yourself the same question Pilate asked himself "Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?" So what shall you do with Jesus? Are you going to believe and have faith so that you can have eternal life thru Jesus Christ? Or are you going to be lost and spend eternity in Hell? The decision is yours as Jesus has already given the blood and sacrifice.You know that day time was split forever, just like the curtain that was spit in the temple so was time and history. You know there is another split that is going to happen in the near future or might even be today and that is Jeus is coming back and is going to split all mankind into two groups. You will either be one of his church or you are going to be in the other group with will be going to hell. There is noway around that. God bless and be thankful for what Jesus has done for you and me.

If it was a sin 2,000 years ago it is a sin today.
