 Subject:  THE DEATH OF CHRIST


The Death of Jesus
 For the next 60 seconds, set aside whatever
 You're doing and take this opportunity! Let's see if Satan
 can stop this.
THE (SCIENTIFIC) DEATH OF JESUS
At the age of 33,
Jesus was condemned to the death ..
 At the time crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst
 criminals were condemned to be crucified. Yet it was
 even more dreadful for Jesus, unlike
 other criminals condemned to death by
 crucifixion Jesus was to be nailed to the
 cross by His hands and feet.


Each nail was 6 to 8 inches long.

The nails were driven into His wrist. Not
 into His palms as is commonly
 portrayed. There's a tendon in the wrist that
 extends to the shoulder. The Roman guards knew
 that when the nails were being hammered into the
 wrist that tendon would tear and
 break, forcing Jesus to use His back
 muscles to support himself so that He could
 breath.



Both of His feet were nailed together. Thus He was forced to
 support Himself on the single nail that
 impaled His feet to the cross. Jesus could
 not support himself with His legs because of the pain
 so He was forced to alternate between arching His
 back then using his legs just to continue to
 breath. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the
 suffering, the courage.


Jesus endured this reality for over 3 hours.

Yes, over 3 hours! Can you imagine this kind of
 suffering? A few minutes before He died,
 Jesus stopped bleeding. He was simply pouring water
 from his wounds.


>From common images we see wounds to His hands and feet and even the spear wound
 to His side... But do we realize His wounds
 were actually made in his body. A hammer
 driving large nails through the wrist, the feet overlapped
 and an even large nail hammered through the arches, then a
 Roman guard piercing His side with a spear. But
 before the nails and the spear Jesus was whipped and
 beaten. The whipping was so severe that it tore the
 flesh from His body. The beating so horrific that His
 face was torn and his beard ripped from His face. The
 crown of thorns cut deeply into His scalp. Most men
 would not have survived this torture.

He had no more blood to bleed out, only water poured from His
 wounds.
 The human adult body contains about 3.5 liters
 (just less than a gallon) of blood.


Jesus poured all 3.5 liters of his blood; He had three nails hammered into His
 members; a crown of thorns on His head and, beyond
 that, a Roman soldier who stabbed a spear into His
 chest..


All these without mentioning the humiliation He suffered after carrying His own
 cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd spat in his
 face and threw stones (the cross was almost 30 kg of weight,
 only for its higher part, where His hands were
 nailed).


 Jesus had to endure this experience, to open the
Gates of Heaven,
 so that you can have free
 access to God.


So that your sins
 could be "washed" away. All of them, with no exception!
 Don't ignore this situation.

JESUS
 CHRIST DIED FOR YOU!


He died for you!


God has plans for you, show all your friends what He experienced
 to save you. Now think about this! May God bless your
 life!

 60
 seconds with God...

For the next 60 seconds, set aside what you're doing and take
 this opportunity!



All you have to do
 is:

 1. Simply pray for the person who sent this message to
 you:

2.Then  , send this message to people.. The more the better.

3. People will pray for you and you will make that many people pray to God
 for other people.


4. Take a moment to appreciate the power of God in your life, for
 doing what pleases Him.



Yes, I love God. He is my source of life and my Savior. He keeps me alive day
 and night.

Without Him, I am nothing, but with Him "I can do all things through Him
 who strengthens me". Philippians 4:13.


This is the simple proof. If you love God and you are a believer and trust
 in salvation through Christ Jesus, send this to all those
 you love
