On Good Friday, Jesus was framed between two thieves. Their names are lost to history, but we know their last words, and those three crosses became a microcosm for the eternal realities of the human race.
A view of the cross, lit ahead of Pope Francis arrival for the Via Crucis torchlight procession on Good Friday, a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary, in front …At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, And the burden of my heart rolled away, It was there by faith I received my sight, And now I am happy all the day!
That day, on Calvary, He was framed between two thieves. Their names are lost to history, but we know their last words, and those three crosses became a microcosm for the eternal realities of the human race. Both these men must have cried out intensely as they were being crucified, cursing God, cursing the Romans, cursing the Jews, cursing their parents, cursing the day they were born. One of the thieves never did stop cursing. He cursed his way into a Christless eternity. What a glimpse of the depravity of man! Faced with one’s death, you would think a man would cry for mercy. But it’s possible to so harden oneself toward God that increased pain only results in increased obstinacy.
