At the cross, we find more than pain—we find a promise. In this powerful message from Luke 23, we’re reminded that even in Jesus’ darkest hour, He offered light, love, and the hope of eternal life.
1️⃣ Consider the Lost Around You – Jesus noticed the hurting even as He was hurting (Luke 23:27-31, Spurgeon). Evangelism begins with compassion and ends with invitation.
2️⃣ Capture the Heart of Forgiveness – At Calvary, Jesus forgave those who crucified Him (Luke 23:33-38, Colossians 2:14), showing us that no wound is deeper than His mercy.
3️⃣ Call on the Name of Jesus – One thief mocked, the other believed. Salvation came not through performance, but by calling out in faith (Luke 23:39-42, 1 John 1:9, Hebrews 11:1).
4️⃣ Celebrate the Promise of Paradise – Jesus' words, “Today you will be with me in paradise,” are still the greatest hope for every soul that believes (Luke 23:43, Philippians 1:23).
Eternity was secured on a cross, and access to paradise is still offered to all who trust in Christ. Watch now and be reminded of the grace that saves, even in life’s final moments.
