FINAL WORDS
“Final Words of Jesus’ Admirers”
Selected Passages
Introduction: In the gospel accounts of Jesus’ ministry, we read that He had many accusers, as well as admirers. Many totally misunderstood Jesus’ mission and purpose and even who He was; including many of His admirers even up to the last events and last words just before He was placed on the cross.
The Final Words Of:
The Crowd (Matthew 21:1-11)
The Companions (disciples)
--James & John (Mark 10:35-45)
--Thomas (John 14:1-6)
--Philip (John 14:7-11)
--Peter (Matthew 26:33-35, 51-53, 69-75)
The Criminal (Luke 23:39-43)
The Centurion (Mark 15:37-39)
Application: Admiration for Jesus is not enough for salvation. The admirer of Jesus must become a follower of Jesus. However, many admirers have their own assumptions and agendas concerning Him. Salvation comes to those who accept Jesus on His terms. Have you accepted Him on your terms or His?
“…Jesus said to His disciples,
‘If anyone desires to come after Me,
let him deny himself,
and take up his cross, and follow Me.’” (Matthew 16:24)
