## Resource

This is the continuation of Lesson 175a on the Lord's crucifixion. Repeatedly, throughout His earthly ministry, Christ's enemies sought to destroy Him, but they could not. HIS predetermined "hour" had not come. But finally it did, and their desires were granted by the will of God Himself. The Lord Jesus, Prince of Life, willingly yielded Himself into their hands. At any minute - even hanging nailed to a cross - He could have used His power to escape, but He did not. He was fully surrendered to carry through to completion His divinely ordained mission to redeem mankind. Regardless what it meant for Him personally by way of spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental anguish, He would drink the full, bitter cup of His Father's wrath and holy judgment against sin - for you and for me. As in the first part of this two-part look at Christ's horrific crucifixion, we will see how Old Testament prophecies were fulfilled. Learn, too, who wrote the first Gospel tract and what it said. Also, did you know the Holy Spirit did NOT inspire any of the four gospel writers to record details about the Lord's actual crucifixion! Why do you think that is?
