Transcript THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, OUR RESURRECTED SAVIOR

THE CRUCIFIXION AND
RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST.
And if Christ be not risen, then
is our preaching vain, and
your faith is also vain. I
Corinthians 15:14
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
THEN RELEASED HE BARABBAS UNTO
THEM: WHEN HE HAD SCOURAGED
JESUS, HE DELIVERED HIM TO BE
CRUCIFIED. MATTHEW 27:26





Barabbas deserved the cross.
“Bar” in Hebrew means “son”
“Abba” in Hebrew means “father”
Barabbas means “son of father”
The people chose a criminal named
“son of father” instead of Jesus, who
was the Son of God the Father
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
WHO DESERVED THE CROSS?


To the cross went the sinless, blameless
and spotless Son of God the Father;
Savior & Messiah, Jesus; even though the
cross was intended for the sinner,
murderer and seditionist, Barabbas, (“son
of father”) .
Jesus went to the sinners’ cross to die by
crucifixion in the place of the actual
sinner(s). His death was vicarious!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Legend says this about Barabbas:


While Jesus was hanging on the
cross Barabbas ran to its foot and
cried out, “O Jesus of Nazareth, I
know not who you are, but this I
know: You are hanging there in my
place.”
This is the cry of faith that saves—
”Jesus, you died in my place! It is my
sins that nailed you to the cross!”
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org



Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus
into the common hall, and gathered unto him
the whole band of soldiers. And they stripped Him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
Matthew 27: 27, 28
Jew and Gentile together kill Jesus!
Matthew 27: 15-25 the Jews demand
Jesus from Pilate to crucify.
Matthew 27: 27, 28 the gentiles (Roman
soldiers official representatives of the
Roman Empire) strip Jesus & put on Him
the scarlet robe.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Come now and let us reason together, saith
the Lord; though your sins be as scarlet,
they shall be white as snow; though they be
red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”
Isaiah 1:18



Scarlet is the color God uses for sin!
Jesus is clothed in scarlet! (not purple)
When sinners trust in Jesus as their
Savior, we take His clothes of righteousness for ourselves and He took our
clothes of scarlet sin at Calvary!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF THE
GOSPEL?



All of my scarlet sins were put on
(clothed) Jesus as He hung on the
Cross of Calvary--By grace through faith at the point of
salvation I am clothed in the
unblemished righteousness of the Son
of Almighty God, the Lord Jesus.
My sin on Jesus---His righteousness on
me!!! I am clean as white snow!

“And when they had plaited a crown of
thorns, they put it upon His head, and a reed
in His right hand: and they bowed the knee
before Him, and mocked Him, saying, Hail,
King of the Jews.” Matthew 27:29


The last of King David’s dynasty to
be crowned in Jerusalem is crowned
with thorns.
With the thorns in His precious head,
Jesus bears the curse of sin of which
the thorn has become the symbol!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The Gospel in the Crucifixion, by
George E. Guille:


“The third chapter of Genesis records
the curse upon creation because of
sin. So widespread and far-reaching
has it become that ‘the whole creation
groaneth and travaileth in pain
together until now’ (Rom. 8:22).
[In Genesis 3 we] find the full significance of the crown of thorns. There
we find no less than 7 features of the
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


curse, and every one has been fully
met by our Lord.
First, is the fact itself: “Cursed is the
ground for thy sake” (Genesis 3:17).
But behold how He has fulfilled that
which was written of Him (Deut.
21:23): “Christ hath redeemed us
from the curse of the law, being
made a curse for us: for it is written,
Cursed is everyone that hangeth
upon a tree” (Gal. 3:13)
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


Second: “In sorrow shalt thou eat of it
all the days of thy life” (Genesis 3:17b)
And He of the thorn-crowned brow was a
“man of sorrows, and acquainted with
grief” (Isa. 53:3), saying, as He faced the
cross, “My soul is exceeding sorrowful,
even unto death” (Matt. 26:38).
Third: “Thorns also and thistles shall it
bring forth to thee.” (Genesis 3:18).
Behold that which became the symbol of
the Curse woven into a crown for God’s
Son (Matthew 27:29)!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Matthew 27:26-29

26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and
when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him
to be crucified. 27 Then the soldiers of the
governor took Jesus into the common hall, and
gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a
scarlet robe. 29 And when they had platted a
crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and
a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the
knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail,
King of the Jews!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


Fourth: “In the sweat of thy face
shalt thou eat bread” (Genesis 3:19).
Of Him who was made a curse it is
written: “ And his sweat was as it
were great drops of blood falling
down to the ground” (Luke 22:44)
Fifth: “Till thou return unto the
ground; for out of it wast thou
taken: for dust thou art, and unto
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


dust shalt thou return” (Genesis 3:19b).
And centuries before our Lord was born,
David, by the Holy Ghost, put upon His
lips these words: “Thou hast brought me
into the dust of death” (Psa. 22:15).
Sixth: God had forewarned Adam that
death should be the result of
disobedience (Genesis 2:17). Now the
sentence is executed: “So He drove out
the man.”
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


“Out from the garden of delight, where
God’s presence had been manifested.
That is death—separation from God. To
this also Christ has answered. In that
outside place, amid the thick darkness,
He cried, “My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me” (Psalm 22:1;
Matthew 27:46)?
Seventh: “He placed at the east of the
garden of Eden Cherubims, and a
flaming sword which turned every
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org

way, to keep the way of the tree of
life” (Genesis 3:24). But that flaming
sword has been quenched in holy
blood, as it is written: “Awake O
sword, against my shepherd, and
against the man that is my fellow,
saith the Lord of hosts” (Zech. 13:7;
Matt. 26:31,32).
 Thus did the Lord of life and
glory receive the curse that was
our due, that we might be
blessed forever!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“And as they came out, they found a man of
Cyrene, Simon by name: him they
compelled to bear His cross” (Matt. 27:32).




Simon means, “hearkener, to give heed
in order to comply.”
Cyrene = “the supremacy of the bridle.”
The Hearkener submits to Roman authority, carries the cross, follows Jesus.
The Christian’s badge is a cross, he is
crucified with Christ as he submits to the
authority of the Bible, follows Lord Jesus.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“And when they were come unto a place called
Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull…they
crucified Him.” (Matt. 27:33, 35a)





The wisdom of the Jewish and Gentile
leadership said, “Kill Jesus!”
“[H]ath not God made foolish the wisdom
of this world” (1 Cor. 1:20b-30)
The Lord Jesus=the “wisdom of God”
In Jesus are “hid all the treasures of
wisdom and knowledge” (Col. 2:3)
In Him was life and the life was the light
of men. (John 1:4)
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
GOLGOTHA=“SKULL PLACE”




A skull=no tissue, brain, no wisdom!
Unbelieving Gentile and Jew boast of
their wisdom, but the wisdom of the
world is foolishness to God.(1 Cor. 1)
The wisdom of the world demanded
that Jesus be nailed to a tree. That
cross was planted in a skull of rock!
The symbolism screams at mankind!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“They gave Him vinegar to drink mingled with
gall: and when He had tasted thereof, He would
not drink” (Matthew 27:34).
 Vinegar and gall had anesthetic and
analgesic effects—Jesus refused!
 He was willing to drink the cup of God’s
divine wrath against sin without the
stupefying effects of drugs.
 He gave Himself to the complete
endurance of God’s judgment,
accepting no relief from men that He
could give them full relief from the
consequences of their sin!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“AND THEY CRUCIFIED HIM, AND PARTED HIS
GARMENTS, CASTING LOTS.” MATTHEW 27:35





Read: The Gospel of John 19:23,24
Roman custom: officials of execution get
to keep clothes of the crucified.
Soldiers discoverd the seamless robe.
They cannot divide the robe without
destroying it so they cast lots for it.
The Prophecy: “They part my garments
among them, and cast lots upon my
vesture.” Psalm 22:18
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The seamless robe of Jesus is the
figure of another robe…

As Isaiah said, “I will greatly rejoice
in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in
my God; for He hath clothed me with
the garments of salvation, He hath
covered me with the robe of
righteousness, as a bridegroom
decketh himself with ornaments, and
as a bride adorneth herself with
jewels.” Isaiah 61:10
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
AS THE PRODIGAL RETURNS HIS FATHER
SAYS, “BRING FORTH THE BEST ROBE AND
PUT IT ON HIM!”
LUKE 15:22A
“Adam and Eve, in their expensively
purchased knowledge, discovered that
they were naked. And that shameful
word became God’s description of the
sinner’s moral state—NAKED! Nothing
of his own in which to hide; sin his only
claim upon God! He must have a
garment—one of God’s own pattern, of
His materials and of His providing, its
color, a death—stain.” Guille p. 15

www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


“Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord
God make coats of skins, and clothed them.”
(Genesis 3:21)
Genesis chapter 2 ends with Adam and
Eve in sinless, selfless servanthood of
each other and of the God of the Bible.
Genesis 3: Sin enters the universe and
the Creation Order is flip-flopped. The
Creation Order was to be: God, and in
submission to God was the man, Adam;
and in submission to the man was his
wife, Eve; and in submission to mankind
was the animal kingdom.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The Creation Order got flip-flopped
as the woman, Eve, submitted to the
animal (the serpent in Eden). Then
her husband, Adam, submitted to
her and ate the fruit she offered to
him. This left God under all instead
of over all and projected animals to
being more important than people
and women taking over the types of
leadership God intended for men. Sin
and the curse demanded a way of
redemption and restoration.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
REDEMPTION REQUIRES A
BLOOD SACRIFICE.


Now a vicarious blood sacrifice must
be made for “without the shedding of
blood there is no remission of sin”
(Hebrews 9:22).
Blood must be spilled to provide a
garment for the now sinfull, naked
husband and wife, Adam and Eve.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The blood-sacrifice as a symbol
of salvation is part of Jewish
history until at the cross of
Jesus the full meaning of this
Jewish ritual was made plain.

“When we were enemies, we were
reconciled to God by the death of His
Son.” Romans 5:10
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Who wears the Robe of Righteousness?
Only the person of believing faith!
 As it is written: “Even the righteousness
of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ
unto all and upon all them that believe.”
(Romans 3:22)
 The moment a sinner believes the gospel
(I Corinthians 15:1-11), God’s
righteousness is upon him [as robed],
covering him from head to foot as
justified before God!

www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“And sitting down they watched Him there;
and set up over His head His accusation
written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE
JEWS.”
Matthew 27:36,37



Jesus’ title written in Hebrew, Greek and
Latin for all the world to read!
The Jewish chief priests wanted Pilate to
change the superscription to: “He said, I
am King of the Jews.”
Pilate said, “What I have written I have
written.” Jesus is the Messiah!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Then were there two thieves crucified
with him, one on the right hand, and
another on the left.” (Matthew 27:38)

The prophecy of Isaiah 53:12 about the
Messiah said. “And He was numbered
with the transgressors.”
 The Gospel of Mark verifies Isaiah’s
prophecy: “And the Scripture was
fulfilled, which saith, And He was
numbered with the transgressors.”
 Mark 15:28
 See: Luke 23:39-43
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org




The crucifixion of sinners with Christ
portrays our identification with Him.
We were born with the Adamic sin nature
and we all have sinned. (Romans: 3:23)
But when we come to saving faith in
Jesus we are “…crucified with Him.”
(Romans 6:6) Or as Galatians 2:20: “I
am crucified with Christ.”
Jesus: “If any man will come after Me, let
Him deny himself, and take up his cross
daily and follow Me” (Luke 9:23).
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


“Therefore if any man be in Christ,
he is a new creature: old things are
passed away; behold, all things are
become new.”
2 Corinthians 5:17
“That if thou shalt confess with thy
mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath
raised Him from the dead, thou shalt
be saved.”
Romans 10:9
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
THE THREE CROSSES



Jesus with no sin in Himself took sin
on himself & died for the sin of
others.
The thief who believed in Jesus had
sin in himself which was taken upon
Jesus and he then went to Paradise.
The thief who refused to receive
Jesus as his Savior, died in his sin
and then went to Hell.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Likewise also the chief priests mocking
Him, with the scribes and elders, said, He
saved others: Himself He cannot save.”
Matthew 27:41, 42a
The priests are uttering God’s own truth:
He could not save himself “and save us,”
so that He might save us He received the
awful stroke of death that was our due!
In His death we are given Life.
Jesus:”Father, not my will but thine…”
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Now from the sixth hour there was
darkness over all the land unto the
ninth hour. And about the ninth hour
Jesus cried with a loud voice,
saying,…My God, My God, why hast
Thou forsaken Me?”
God is Light. As He forsakes His Son
the Light leaves and all is in
darkness!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“After this, Jesus knowing that all
things were now accomplished, that
the scripture might be fulfilled, saith,
I thirst. Now there was set a vessel
full of vinegar: and they filled a
sponge with vinegar, and put it upon
a hyssop, and put it to His mouth.
When Jesus therefore had received
the vinegar, he said, It is finished:
and He bowed His head, and gave up
the ghost.”
John 19:28-30
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“In my thirst they gave me vinegar
to drink.” Psalm 69:21



Jesus cried out “I thirst” to fulfill the
prophecy of Psalm 69.
Thus Jesus did all according to the
infallible Word of God.
After fulfilling all the OT prophecies
regarding His first coming He said,
“It is finished!” And He gave up the
ghost. He was not killed, He
voluntarily gave up His life!!!!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“And behold, the veil of the temple
was rent in twain from the top to the
bottom; and the earth did quake,
and the rocks rent; and the graves
were opened; and many bodies of
the saints which slept arose, and
came out of the graves after His
resurrection, and went into the holy
city, and appeared unto many.”
Matthew 27:51-53
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
THE RESURRECTION OF THE
LORD JESUS CHRIST
“He is not
here, for He
is risen!”

www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
MATTHEW 28:1-7



“In the end of the Sabbath, as it
began to dawn toward the first day
of the week, came Mary Magdalene
and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.”
About 4000 years before, a woman
named Eve had chosen to sin.
Then a virgin woman named Mary
gave birth to God’s provision for this
sin, His only begotten Son, Jesus.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Now a previously demon-possessed
woman named Mary Magdalene is
the first eyewitness to the tomb.
Luke 8:2: “And certain women, which
had been healed of evil spirits and
infirmities, Mary called Magdalene,
out of whom went seven devils,…”
A special woman is the first person to
witness the empty tomb of the Risen
Lord Jesus Christ!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
MATTHEW 28:2

“And, behold, there was a great
earthquake: for the angel of the Lord
descended from heaven, and came
and rolled back the stone from the
door, and sat upon it.”
NOTICE: It was a great(KJV); violent
(NIV), severe (NASB) earthquake.
No ordinary earthquake!
Charles Spurgeon put it this way:
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


“Death was going through an
upheaval. All the bars of the tomb
were beginning to burst. When the
King awoke from the sleep of death,
He shook the world. The bedroom in
which He had rested for a little while
trembled as the heavenly Lord arose
from His couch.
Jesus was placed in the prison of the
tomb as a hostage for His people.
Therefore it was fitting that He not
break out by Himself. The angelic
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


sheriff came with the warrant for His
release and set the captive free.
Jesus had been confined because of
human debt, but the debt had now
been paid, so He had to go free.”
Spurgeon continued: “When the
angel rolled back the stone, he sat
on it as if to defy earth and hell ever
to roll it back again. When the angel
sat on the stone, one greater than an
earthly king sat on something better
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org


than a throne. The great stone
seemed to represent the sin of all
Christ’s people that had shut them
up in prison. It can never be laid
again over the mouth of the tomb of
any child of God. Christ has risen,
and all his saints must rise, too.”
Jesus could have called down legions
of angels to rescue him from death—
He chose to die and have an angel
announce His coming back to life!

HOW MUCH OF THE BIBLE DO

that Jesus, who was dead and buried
for three days, came back to life at
the resurrection?
• 1 Corinthians 15:4: “And that He was
buried, and that He rose again the third
day according to the Scriptures, and
that He was seen;…He was seen;…He

Matthew 28:3,4


More about the angel at the tomb:
“His countenance was like lightning,
and his raiment white as snow: and
for fear of him the keepers did
shake, and became as dead men.”
In the presence of one of our Lord’s
holy angels Roman soldiers, not
known for being cowards, shook and
passed out!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The presence of heavenly purity sends
shock and terror to sinful men!
Matthew 28:5
“And the angel answered and said unto
the women, Fear not ye: for I know
that ye seek Jesus, which was
crucified.”
The women were fearful even though
the angel said, “Fear not.” Only Jesus
can instantly calm fears!

www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Ye seek Jesus, which was crucified!”

Again, Spurgeon says, “If you and I
can truly say that we seek Jesus who
was crucified, we can bear all the
shame that philosophers gladly heap
on the cross, and we will have no
cause for fear. The ridicule from
ungodly people will not hurt us.”
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Matthew 28:6



“He is not here: for He is risen, as He
said. Come, see the place where the
Lord lay.”
Our Lord always does “as He said!”
In this case He arose from the dead
on the third day as He said.
(Matthew 16:21; 17:23; 20:19)
In the Gospels, we have the
prediction and fulfillment of Jesus
resurrection.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
In the Acts we have the affirmation and
effects of Christ’s resurrection.

In the Epistles we have the blessings
and responsibilities attached to
Christ’s resurrection.
 “That I may know Him, and the
power of His resurrection, and the
fellowship of His sufferings, being
made conformable unto His death.”
Philippians 3:10
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
Acts 2:23,24


Jesus,…”being delivered by the
determinate counsel and
foreknowledge of God, ye have
taken, and by wicked hands have
crucified and slain: whom God hath
raised up, having loosed the pains of
death: because it was not possible
that He should be holden of it (held
in its power, NASB).
O death, where is thy sting? 1 Cor. 15:55
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
whom God hath raised up, having
loosed the pains of death




How is “pains” used in the Bible?
It is used to mean birth pains
(translated “travail”) 1 Thess 5:3
It means woes coming on the earth
(translated “sorrows”) Matthew 24:8
The pangs, travail and sorrows of
death held Jesus for a brief time, but
He was loosed!
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
The word “loosed” expresses the
thoroughness of His release.




Mark 11:2: Loosed is used in
speaking of the loosing of a tied colt.
Acts 7:33: the putting off of shoes
from the feet.
1 Corinthians 7:27: the breaking of
the marriage tie by death.
John 2:19: the taking down of the
stones of a building.

hindrance in the way.
 Acts 27:41: the breaking up of a
ship.
 1 John 3:8: the destroying of the
works of an enemy.
 The use of this word “loosed” shows
the thoroughness of Christ’s
resurrection

www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
“Loosed” displays the total triumph
of the resurrection!




Jesus was loosed from the bands
which held Him.
He put off the detaining power of
death
He broke the ties of the cords of
Hades.
He took down the house of hell’s
stronghold.
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
He overcame the one who had authority
over death, the devil.


He broke up the kingdom of Satan.
He owns the keys of death, and
death He will abolish in the future.
1Cor15:26

He destroyed the works of the devil.

All authority has been given
to our risen Lord and Savior,
Messiah Jesus!

“But God raised Him from the dead:
and he was seen many days of them
which came up with Him from Galilee
to Jerusalem, who are witnesses

“To whom also He showed himself
alive after His passion by many
infallible proofs, being seen of them
forty days….”

IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE FOR THE
RESURRECTION OF JESUS?


Biblical and secular accounts refer to
the resurrection of Christ Jesus.
He was seen by more than 500
people over 40 days after He arose.
• Mark 16:9=Mary Magdalene
• Matt. 28:9=other women
• 1 Cor 15:5=Peter
• Lk. 24:15f=two disciples
• John 20:19f=ten apostles
www.biblicaldiscipleship.org
EVIDENCE FOR THE RESURRECTION
• John 20:26f=eleven apostles
• John 21:1-24=seven disciples fishing
• Matt 28:16,17=eleven apostles
• 1 Cor 15:6=five hundred people
• 1 Cor 15:7=James
• Acts 9:1-5=Paul
• Perhaps the greatest evidence is the
changed lives of the apostles. Would
those 1st century Christians have been
willing to die horrible deaths for a story
well known to them as fraud?

 In His death he lay in a virgin (new)
tomb.
 By being buried in a tomb which had
had no bodies previously placed in it,
there could be no claim that some
body other than Jesus had been
raised! It is Jesus who is risen! Lk23:53

that He is risen from the dead, and,
behold, He goeth before you into
Galilee; there shall ye see Him: Lo, I
have told you.”
Spurgeon: “In v.6 the angel told the
women to ‘see,’ and here he told them
to ‘go.’” You cannot tell the message
until you know it….Do not sit and
admire the sight and forget the
thousands who have never seen it.”

A PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, you are my Redeemer and the
prophesied Messiah of Isaiah 53 in the
Bible. I confess that I am an unrighteous
sinner. I have lied, cheated, stolen, lusted
and lived my life in opposition to your
holiness and commandments. Please
forgive my sin! I am receiving you as my
personal Lord and Savior right now. Help
me to love you and to learn to say no to
the sin that so easily encompasses me.
Thank you for forgiving and saving me!
(John 3)
