2. The Word of Forgiveness. (the 1st Word from the Cross) Luke 23:34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast lots.
• Remember this word that speaks of His offering His love to us though we are sinners. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
• The word of Forgiveness: It is right there in verse 34, “Father forgive them.” Here is His intercession as the only intercessor priest, our only High Priest. What does He demonstrate by this word of forgiveness? His Pity Toward Sinful Humanity. Bernard of Clairvaux, a believer in Jesus Christ of the 11th century wonderingly said – O Sacred head now wounded for this Thy dying hour, Thy pity without end! This Resurrection morning have you experienced the pity of Jesus Christ toward you a sinful human? If so, you’ve been born again.
• Christ’s Last words assure us that He offers His love to us even though He knows that we have failed Him, sinned against Him, and resist Him.
