The Crucifixion
There is no greater love than that of Jesus, for He died for us.
Origin
The New Testament; Mark 15
Story
Jesus was betrayed by Judas, one of His disciples, and was then taken before Pontius Pilate. The people urged Pontius to release a murderer named Barabas to them and to crucify Jesus.
They had Him flogged and tortured, and made Him carry his own cross up the hill where He was to be killed. They pierced his limbs, after which they nailed him to the cross and placed a sign above Him that read тАЬKing of the Jews.тАЭ Jesus cried out to God and then He died. All this happened according to the prophecy that Prophet Isaiah had made, which said the one God chose to take the punishment of the sins of His people would die in silence and would be hung on a tree.
Moral
Jesus was sent to take our sins on Him and suffer death in our place.
