3 guys were arrested as criminals
2 guys had committed crimes
1 guy did not

3 guys were given trials
2 guys had fair trials
1 guy did not

3 guys were whipped and beaten
2 guys deserved it
1 guy did not

3 guys were laughed at, spit at, cursed at
2 guys cursed and spit back
1 guy did not

3 guys were nailed to 3 crosses
2 guys deserved it
1 guy did not

3 guys agonized because they felt abandoned
2 guys had reason to feel abandoned
1 guy did not

3 guys talked on their crosses
2 guys argued
1 guy did not

3 guys knew death was coming
2 guys resisted
1 guy did not

1 ,2, 3 guys died on those 3 crosses
2 guys died for their sins
1 guy died for their sins,
my sins, and your sins

3 days later
2 guys remained in the grave
1 guy did not

That 1 guy loved us enough
to die for us!

His name is Jesus!

Thank Him today!

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." (John 3:16-17 NIV)
