Crucified

Beaten, bruised and bloodied – Jesus carries his cross and takes the punishment to put a final end to sin and death for eternity. As Jesus takes his last breath, the temple curtain tears in two and the new covenant has begun.

Mocked

Mocked, betrayed and wrongly accused. Judas feels the weight of his guilt and betrayal of Jesus. Peter denies following Jesus. Ultimately, Jesus is delivered over to Pilate to face the punishment we all deserved.

Betrayed

At The Last Supper Jesus instituted the covenant meal with his disciples, prayed in deep anguish at Gethsemane at what he was about to suffer on the cross, and was ultimately betrayed, arrested, and abandoned by his disciples.

Judgement

Jesus warns his followers to be ready for his ultimate return, where he will come back to judge all people and the righteous will inherit eternal life for serving “the least of these,” while the unfaithful face eternal separation.

Woe!

Jesus condemned the scribes and Pharisees for their hypocrisy, and burdening others with empty religion while neglecting justice, mercy, and faithfulness. He lamented over Jerusalem’s hardness of heart, expressing God’s love for his people.
