The following are the seven messages that I preached on the seven last things Christ said on the cross. I believe the sequence of the events is as follows:

  1. Luke 23:34, “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.”

  2. John 19:26,27, “Woman, behold thy son! Behold thy mother!

  3. Luke 23:43, “Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.”

  4. Matthew 27:46, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”

  5. John 19:28, “I Thirst” (Actually part of the same message above)

  6. Luke 23:46, “Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.”

  7. John 19:30, “It is finished”
