Knowing Christ (pt. 17)

Steve Rothkopf fills in for Jerry Pedine today; the class continues in the study of Mark Jones' "Knowing Christ" (ISBN 9781848716308). Today's class considers forgiveness with a look at the seven statements made by Jesus as he hung on the cross (sometimes referred to as the seven stations of the cross). These words are recorded in the gospels' recounting of the crucifixion.
Statement One - "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."
Statement Two - "Today you will be with Me in Paradise."
Statement Three - "Woman, behold your son."
Statement Four - "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"
Statement Five - "I thirst!"
Statement Six - "It is finished!"
Statement Seven - "Into Your hands I commit My spirit."
