Clearly, the focus of Scripture is on Jesus during His crucifixion. Yet Matthew expands the spotlight. Today, Dr. John will echo Matthew's focus on 5 other groups that surround Jesus on the cross. It is indicative that while Jesus is central, His death affects us all.The Death and Resurrection of Jesus: In this series of messages, Dr. John points us to the Gospel of Matthew for the account of Jesus' final days. We hear from an eyewitness, a martyr of Jesus. Matthew bears witness to the words, actions and significance of Jesus' death and resurrection. Listen afresh to a story you already know - then we too are to bear witness. We are to be living martyrs, daily witnesses of the good news of Jesus Christ.
