perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:18 (NIV)
I. The Promise: Death
Matthew 27:44
In the same way the robbers who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
II. The Purpose: A Second Chance
Luke 23:39-41
One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Christ? Save yourself and us!” But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”
Luke 23:42-43
Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” Jesus answered him, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.”
Joshuas 14:11-12
So here I am today, eighty-five years old! I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I’m just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then. Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day.
III. The Power: Forgiveness
