For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Fatherโ€™s kingdom.

Matthew 26:28-29

Matthew chapter 5 is the beginning of Jesusโ€™ famous Sermon on the Mount. When Jesus saw the crowds of people following Him, He went up to a mountain, sat down, and began to teach His disciples. This chapter is filled with powerful lessons about how to live a life that pleases God.

Jesus started by sharing a series of blessings called the Beatitudes. He said, โ€œBlessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.โ€ This means that people who are humble and know they need God will be part of His kingdom. He also said that those who mourn will be comforted, showing us that God cares deeply for those who are hurting.

He spoke about the meek, which means people who are gentle, patient, and humble. Jesus promised that the meek will inherit the earth. Then He said that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, those who truly want to do what is right by God, will be filled. Those who are pure in heart are also blessed, because they will see God.

Jesus called peacemakers the children of God, because they help bring peace instead of trouble. He also said that those who are persecuted for doing right by God are blessed, and that the kingdom of heaven belongs to them. He encouraged His followers not to be afraid if people insult or lie about them because of their faith in God. Instead, they should be happy, because their reward in heaven will be great.

Jesus told His followers to let their light shine before others. By doing good works, people will see and give glory to God in heaven. He also made it clear that He did not come to destroy the law or the prophets, but to fulfill them. Every part of Godโ€™s law is important. He said that anyone who breaks even the smallest commandment and teaches others to do so will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But those who follow and teach Godโ€™s commandments will be called great.

Jesus warned that unless our righteousness is greater than that of the scribes and Pharisees, we will not enter the kingdom of heaven. He explained that sin is not just about actions. For example, if a person looks at someone with lust, they have already committed adultery in their heart. He also said that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual sin, causes her to commit adultery. And whoever marries a divorced woman also commits adultery.

Jesus taught that we should not swear at all, not by heaven, earth, or anything else. Instead, we should simply say โ€œyesโ€ or โ€œno.โ€ Anything more than that comes from evil.

He told us to be generous and kind. If someone asks something from us, we should give. And if someone wants to borrow, we should not turn away. Most importantly, Jesus taught that we must love our enemies. He said we should bless those who curse us, do good to those who hate us, and pray for those who mistreat and persecute us. By doing this, we show that we are children of our Father in heaven.

Finally, Jesus gave us a goal to strive for: โ€œBe perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.โ€ This means we should aim to live a life full of love, mercy, and righteousness, just like God.

2 corinthians 5:

21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

1 John 2:

2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

1 John 2:

16 ยถ By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

John 3:

16 โ€œFor God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
17 โ€œFor God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:

30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, โ€œIt is finished!โ€ And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

Thank you Lord for everything.

โ€œThen came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man! When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.โ€

Preparing the way for our hope.

Jesus was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane after being betrayed by Judas, one of His disciples. Before this, Jesus had been praying with sorrow in His heart, asking God if the suffering ahead could pass from Him, but He accepted Godโ€™s will. When Judas arrived, he greeted Jesus with a kiss, and soldiers came to take Jesus away. Although Simon Peter tried to defend Him with a sword, Jesus stopped him and allowed Himself to be arrested.

Jesus was brought before the Jewish leaders and the high priest. They accused Him of false things and mocked Him. Peter, one of His closest disciples, denied knowing Jesus three times, just as Jesus had said he would.

The next morning, Jesus was taken to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor. Pilate found no fault in Jesus but gave in to the crowdโ€™s demands. The people chose to release a criminal named Barabbas and asked for Jesus to be crucified. Jesus was beaten, given a crown of thorns, and mocked as โ€œKing of the Jews.โ€ Then He was led to a place called Golgotha, meaning "Place of the Skull."

At Golgotha, Jesus was nailed to a cross between two thieves. While suffering, He spoke words of love and forgiveness. He promised one of the thieves that he would be with Him in paradise. He also cried out to God, saying, โ€œMy God, My God, why have you forsaken me?โ€ After several hours, Jesus gave a loud cry and died. At that moment, the temple curtain tore in two, the earth shook, and many people were afraid.

A Roman soldier who saw everything said, โ€œTruly, this was the Son of God.โ€ Later, a man named Joseph of Arimathea took Jesusโ€™ body, wrapped it in cloth, and laid it in a new tomb. A large stone was rolled in front of the entrance, and guards were placed there.

Even though this was a time of great sadness, it prepared the way for the joy of Jesusโ€™ resurrection.

Reference Matthew 26 & 27, Mark 13 & 15, Luke 22 & 23, John 19 & 20.

This is the most meaningful time in history for all who follow Christ and honor God. As we remember Holy Week, we reflect on the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus. These events are the foundation of our faith.

It's important to remember that the modern celebration of Easter with its eggs and bunnies, comes from ancient traditions related to Ishtar, a fertility goddess. These symbols and customs were later adopted by pagan cultures and do not represent the true meaning of Christโ€™s sacrifice.

Instead of following man-made traditions, let us return to what Scripture teaches. God's people were commanded to remember the Passover in Exodus 12, and the New Testament gives a clear account of Jesus' death (the true Passover Lamb of God) and His resurrection in Matthew 26โ€“27, Mark 14โ€“15, Luke 22โ€“23, and John 19โ€“20.

In this sacred time, let us honor the one true God and the Lamb who was slain for our sins. As so many come together this weekend, may we remember with reverence the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
