 Easter Season!

With all the uncertainty and turmoil that's going on around the world, maybe a "little time off" is in order - for us all to be reminded of this very important time, many years ago, about a 33 year old MAN, of what HE went through for us.  Let's ask for HIS help - we surely need it now.  JESUS DEATH - 60 SECONDS   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 penalty.  At the  time crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst criminals condemned to be crucified. Yet it was even more dreadful for Jesus, for unlike other criminals condemned to death by crucifixion Jesus was nailed to the cross by His hands and feet, rather than tied... Each  nail was 6 to 9 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 wist, that tendon would tear and break, forcing Jesus to use His back muscles to support himself, so that He could breathe.    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 for long because of the pain. So He was forced to alternate between arching His back and 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 remember the many wounds  made to his body?  A hammer driving large nails through the wrists, the feet overlapped and a nail hammered through the arches. Then a Roman guard piercing His side with a spear. And 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 (two to three inch 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 5 liters (just over a  gallon) of blood.  Jesus  poured all 5 liters of his blood! He had three nails hammered into His body, a crown of thorns on His head  and beyond that, a Roman soldier who stabbed a spear into His side. All  these without mentioning the humiliation He passed after carrying His own  cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd spat in his  face and threw stones (the cross beam was almost 30 kg of weight, to which His hands were nailed).   Jesus had to endure this experience, so that you may have free access to God.   So that your sins can be "washed" away.  All of them, with no exception!  Don't ignore this.  JESUS  CHRIST DIED...FOR YOU!  For you, who now read this e-mail.  Do not believe that He only died for others  (those who go to church or for pastors, bishops, etc.).   He died for you! Accept  the reality, the truth, that  JESUS IS THE ONLY SALVATION FOR THE WORLD.   God has special plans for YOU!  Share this with all your friends... about what He went through to save you.  May God bless you!   For the next 60 seconds,  set aside what you're doing and take  this opportunity! Let's see if Satan can stop this.  All you  have to do  is:  1. Pray for the person who sent this message to you.   2. Send this message to 5 people ... More if you wish. 3.That way, 5 people will pray for you  and you will encourage many people  to pray to God for others.   4. Take a moment to appreciate the power of God in your life, as you do what pleases Him.  Yes, I love God. He is my source of life and my Savior.  He keeps me alive and safe, both day and night. Without Him, I am nothing,  but with Him "I can do all things through Him  who strengthens me". Philippians 4:13.     :  .
